Yes, I think your foam cannon got mentioned a few times further up this thread ...
I know you have seen this thread now : https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/th...oam-cannon-pressure-washer-no-contact.155177/
I actually took those pictures to update this thread for you, but them added them there first ...
Just to add for this thread - My foam cannon can be seen here :
It's an early Autobrite version that at the time I bought it (circa 10 years ago) was the recommended UK option (they also supported forum discounts). I think cannons might have moved on a little now, but it has served me well with the only maintenance / repairs required being replacement connector o rings. After use I let clean water run through it (run the bottle empty) and then I leave it soaking in my rinse bucket (bottle removed) sat on the grit guard and shake it off / dry it off when the buckets are going away. I heard the woolly thing inside can gum up with soap residue if you don't flush them through reducing its foaming ability.
My only criticism and if I was buying again, would be to buy one with a short fat bottle rather than a tall thin one like it has. These things are top heavy anyway (all brass and stainless) and once the bottle is empty it topples easily - especially when you look at the surface my drive has.
Similar to @DFB5.0 I mix at 160ml per L and those yellow tape lines on my bottle are my guides that I added after I got fed up of measuring foam every week. The other thing I do is have a spare bottle so I only need to decant from the big container every three washes (start with two empty, fill both, use one, refill it and then store both full ones ready for the next two washes). Having kids at home, anything to save a bit of time is a good thing My stalker on here will see the humour in the kid comment and they will know its directed at them ...
One mixed bottle will foam two reasonable / mustang sized cars so I tend to do both of mine on the same day, or miss my daily and alternate it with the misses daily. Yes, the daily's have been missing out a little since the mustang arrived ... lol
