Foam cannon????

[biffdotorg]

My routine on most anything from Truck, Wildcat, Sleds or the boat: Rinse with dirt buster rotating tip, hit it with the foam cannon, run over the whole thing with rotating pressure washer brush, then rinse down.

I may wipe it all down with a chamois to avoid water spots. And put a coating of Rain X on the windshield. Seats can come out for more aggressive cleaning and allowed to dry in the sun. Vacuum out any carpeted cabinets if needed.

And then the wax and buffing! I waxed/buffed mine last night to a near mirror finish! I swear, this boat may have never seen a buffer! It looks amazing now!!

PS: XM radio is on free trial till the end of the month for all your driveway washing duties!! Enjoy!

yea but they are galvanized so that's all that matters to me since I visit the gulf each year. For sure get you a foam cannon. It's the only way I will prewash my truck or wash my boat.

True.. forgot about the salt water boaters.. I wonder if u can get that foaming wax stuff just like the car wash places also..

 

[malibu Dan]

I keep forgetting I have the stock rims/tires just sitting in the garage...

This was after a minute or so once some of the foam rolled off but you can see how this would make cleaning easier for a boat by having all that soap clinging to the surfaces allowing you to clean a long ways with the wash mitt

Greenworks 2000psi electric pressure washer. I wasnt an electric pressure washer guy until I bought this one in sale. It is a great little pressure washer!

Reviving this old thread as I am considering getting a foam cannon. Not sure which one I will get, but will probably use chemical guys soap or the turtle wax ceramic soap..

Question is, how powerful of a pressure washer is to powerful? I have the attached. It has a "automobile" setting, but it is a beast. Kind of scared to use it.

Anyone here use a foam cannon on your boat to wash it? What brand and how do you like it?

TIA!!

Slick Products! I just have the garden hose one but really impressed, I just got a power washer this spring so I will probably upgrade to that one some day. I have heard complaints on other brands that the bottles break easily, the Slick ones are a durable plastic.

After owning one for a few years now, I would say the pressure washer needs GPM more than pressure. My pressure washer may not push as much water. But here is a great review from someone that loves the most expensive foam cannon, but after the review, it may prove a tough one to justify.

I would have to admit, that I spent the money on the MTM Hydro foam cannon. But I am not sure I would buy another. The ones for 1/2 the price may work as good. But it is durable, and does work well.
