Optimum Ca r Wash Dilution Ratios for AG/Gilmore Foam Gun?

Could use some feedback on the dilution ratio for Optimum Ca r Wash used with my 1-Qt. Gilmore (actually, AutoGeek) foam gun. I know I have seen a thread pertaining to this, but can't seem to find it again via search.



How many ounces of Optimum Ca r Wash vs. water should be used in the gun's bottle. On the AG site, there is some reference to their DP Xtreme Wash (2 oz. per 6-8 ozs. of water; then set foam gun on max. solution usage). Oddly enough, the foam gun bottle isn't graduated (at least mine's not), so I have to measure in advance.



So, any great foaming experiences with Optimum Ca r Wash and the Gilmore gun (product to water ratios in the bottle AND solution usage rate setting on the gun itself)??



Would appreciate your specific experiences, ratios & settings. Thanks in advance for your input.



See ya. :wavey
 
From Optimum's forum: (surprised you didnt see it ;) )

"In the tank mix 3:1 water to Optimum Carwash, then set the slider to the 3rd hole from the left (4:1). that'll give you 1 oz per gallon"

This gives you CRAZY suds, IMHO you could dial it back a bit for standard-duty cleaning.

BTW, OPT car wash is the most amazing traditional wash I have tried by a long shot!
 
Ya know, I looked around there too.......and didn't find it (although, I did finally see a similar thread at AG with those ratios, as well).



I take it you've used the gun and gotten those crazy suds?? :)



Thanks.



See ya. :wavey

Yeah, lots of suds by foam gun and regular bucket washing. YMMV, our water is fairly soft here.
