Push the pin all the way to the LEFT when looking from the top. You will hear it click when it's in place.

Put 2-3oz of wash, and use the hose sprayer to add 6-8oz of water into the jug. Shake well, and turn on.

I clean mine out very good after each use. Let air dry, and store.



Here's some quick pictures..

I got my foam gun about 2 months ago, and it is great! I know people on here have different opinions, but I love mine. I have used mine with the DP extreame and PB SS&S and the middle hole on the little rod seems to be a good mixture for me and allows me to do a full size 4 door P/U with 2oz of soap and 6-8oz. of water. If you are washing a smaller vehicle you could either use less soap on this setting or just bump up the setting and get more suds. This will be something you will have to just see what works best for you. When I am finished I usually just rinse off/out with water and set out to dry before putting away. IMO this was a good purchase, sorry I waited so long to get mine.

:iagree:
 
when using the foam gun do you just spray it on and let it sit for a min or do you use a sponge to take off the dirt.

marring= swirls?

I let the foam sit for 30 seconds, then I use the two bucket method and remove.


Yes.
 
My way with foam gun*

-Foam the car (let stay on car 2-5 min, NOT in the sun/dont let dry)
-Hose the car (Dirty car= HP washer, "clean" car= garden hose)
(put on a new coat of soap if you like, and move to next step)
-wash with ShMitt, GG and soap
-Hose again
-Dry

*I use foamgun at a wash dock, my foamgun from AG arrived at the post office today, will be tested "seriuously" this weekend.
Im having a AG moment tomorrow picking up the package at the post office.......man i love that feeling
 
My wash method:

1. Pre-rinse the entire car
2. Foam down the entire car
3. Then wash the car using my wash mitt with the foam gun to "lead the way spray"
4. After each panel i spray my mit with the foam gun to blast out grit and load it up with new sudsy soap...sometime i use a bucket with a grit guard instead to do this step
5. "flood dry" the entire car
6. Huge mf towel to dry the car misting each panel with qd
7. Smile..I'm done...
