Have you tried adjusting the knob on top? It controls the amount of solution that goes through the gun. You should get some crazy suds with 4-6oz.

There's not much you can do besides getting a car cover or parking inside a garage. Any water will leave water spots if you're car is dirty or the water is not distilled or RO. If its leaving a noticeable white residue it may not be dew since dew is condensation and pure water for the most part...

A thorough rinse is the most important step IMO. A pressure washer is more important than a foam gun when it comes to really dirty cars.

I use a hand pump sprayer with ONR and spray down my entire vehicle with a fine mist of it to solve hard water problems. You still have to dry the car with air or a towel or itll streak but there are no worries about water spots since ONR is a water softening champ! Pretty cheap and easy for me.

The laser printer in the first amazon link has a scanner :xyxthumbs:

If you dont need color I would suggest going with a laser printer. I'd shy away from any ink cartridge printer as they tend to dry up and you wont get your moneys worth especially with light printing. I have this brother printer: Amazon.com: Brother Printer Wireless Monochrome Printer, Dark...

Thanks for your insight Shortspark. I personally like fluffy nap towels for drying because I feel they contour to the car better and absorb more water. Just a personal preference kind of thing. Waffle weaves are a little more stiff than a towel with a long nap.

Just saw these on the autogeek "Whats New" section. Pretty tempted to pick one up because waffle weaves arent my favorite for drying. Anyone have any experience/pictures to share of these towels? Duragloss Plush Microfiber Drying Towel

I noticed it streaks as well when I spray too much. Using two towels is a must as stated above. The trick i found is to buff it off with a dry towel before it even gets the chance to flash. So as soon as you begin spreading the wax with your wet towel, have the dry towel in your other hand ready...

Did you notice any suction/dragging with this sponge compared to the opti eraser?

All of the soaps that get talked about on here are great in foam cannons! DG 901/902, CG honeydew, Optimum car wash and so on. I use honeydew because I think it smells the best when sprayed compared to the other two. I will warn you that with any chemical guys soap, suds that thick will eat...

Have you thought about using an aio that contained cleaners in it? The solvents in that could possibly remove what the abrasives could not

Roshan, I know you have the speedy prep towel but are any of your clay alternatives in clay block form like the eraser? I'm trying to figure out if this dragging feeling is specific to the opti eraser or is a inherent characteristic to all clay blocks due to their shape and suction like Chris said.

Which do you guys prefer? I have PERL and love it on tires but the durability isnt as great as I'd like. It also runs in the rain when I apply to exterior trim. Is opti-bond any different or can i expect the same results on tire and trims?

Theres a company that does a complete body and engine swap with a ecoboost f150 and a raptor making it lighter, faster and more fuel efficient. Of course it comes with a hefty price tag.
