Well the time has come I actually get one of these, as after watching some videos it just makes everything a lot easier and cleaner! But I'm not sure of what brands to go with or if I should shell out the extra money for a pressure washer/ Foam Cannon as those things seem to really get washing a car done right. Any suggestions?

whether you use an expensive foam cannon or dip a sponge in a bucket of soap and water it wont make a difference because you still have to scrub it. just a waste of money IMO and the soap sprayer that comes with just about any pressure washer should be more than sufficient.

Are you actually going to pressure spray your car? What is wrong with a couple of buckets full of rags?

Nothings wrong with it, thats how I've always washed cars. I just felt like trying something new. Foam cannons still freak me out some, I never thought I'd ever even consider using a pressure washer on my paint. But I think a foam gun would still be something nice to try out, and it seems I can get one for $20+, I just wanted to know if there were any brands that people found were better than others, though I haven't seen many on here using foam guns or cannons! I just value this forums overall opinion

I am looking forward to trying mine out mainly for the reason you said, something new, but its been a colder then normal winter here and I still need to finish my current project to get it back on the road to get it dirty... I was suprised when my door-prize number was called that the one item I thought looked cool was still available. If its something amazing I will let ya know.
i dont know anything about foam guns, but be sure to post up some videos of ya using it! Sounds pretty cool. my largest complaint is my foam disappearing in my bucket. sounds like a foam gun might fix that.

I just got a foam gun from Autogeek. Kind of pricey but I like it with the quick release it comes with. The sample soap it came with didn't work for me at all but the Meguiars gold class that i use foamd up pretty well. Still trying to figure out the settings but it kind of uses the soap quick.

ttocs tell me what you think about the foam gun when you get it, looking for some opinions still on what brand to get.
ace- All I own is Meguiars, but I would say try some of chemical guys products, supposedly honey dew and mr.pink are really nice soaps and will give you great foam. And I think they are on sale atm.
