    Used it today for the first time with an uber foam canon attachment. It's perfect for light duty.

    Daniel, I love it. The pressure washer produces enough psi to wash the cars and even light duty around my house.

    During the winter months or when the car is really dirty, I use the Snow Foam. Let it soak and then rinse it off. It removes dirt and grime pretty well that I don't even bother washing it further then that.

    But warmer months and when I really want to get it clean, I put my car wash soap in the foam canon, cover the car and wash it that way. Not really needed to do a two bucket wash.

    Looks like I may be stopping by Home Depot on the way home... Sounds like the solution I need, NoVA just does NOT have DIY car washes. It is simply not an option. So using this combo, Vas, you can pretty much get the lather on, rinse and dry?

    Daniel, that is correct. The foam canon can be adjusted on how much to pull from the bottle. So you can have a really thick amount of foam or barely any amount and the mixture be more watered down. The more foam the better it does at breaking down dirt and grime. Then just rinse it off and dry.

    BTW if you need an awesome drying towel, get an Uber Microfiber drying towel.

    wait - vas, you mean just foam the car as it sits, then rinse off and dry? that's it?

    man, i gotta get a pressure washer and the foam cannon thing. i can't imagine how much time that must save... plus, currently i am working with a submersible pump in one of my rain barrels for car washes - it produces... well... it's doesn't really produce much pressure. it sucks, frankly.

    I usually spray the car down with water to break up the dirt. Then foam it, wait the recommended time for the foam to work. Then rinse off and dry it during the winter months. Just trying to avoid as much hand contact to prevent scratching or damaging the finish.

    But yeah it is that simple and time saving.
