Foam gun vs foam cannon

[emaxxman]

I have the foam gun and like it. I can't imagine washing w/o it. I've had it since 2005.

I see the big thing now is the foam cannon. I don't NEED the foam cannon but it looks really cool and I'm a tool addict.

From what I can tell, it performs the same function as the foam gun, eg presoak to loosen up the dirty stuff and pre-rinse. The advantages over the foam gun (from what I can see) are:

1. Uses less water to create foam
2. Less soap required (most solutions call for 1 to 2oz with 30oz's of water)
3. thicker foam clings to car longer

Does anyone have both gun and cannon? Are my assumptions above correct?

Anyone prefer the foam gun over the cannon? If so, why?

How is the pressure out of the foam cannon when not siphoning/foaming soap? I don't like the idea of rinsing with a straight pressure washer lance. If the cannon has relatively good pressure w/o soap, that would be a nice timesaver, eg no need to disconnect house from pressure washer to rinse.

Anything else to consider?

You're spot on.

I'll even add another applicator to the mix that I really have enjoyed. A Tornador. 2-3 ounces of product mixed with 30 ounces of water ........ you'll need an air compressor set up capable of 60-90psi.

Just about everything is the same as the foam cannon except the fact that compressed air is used for the application AND very little product is needed for the Tornador to be effective.

You may want to do a search for this product as it is rebadged under different company names. AG has them and I believe they are sold under Pinnacle, Wolfgang & AG .......... all for the same price of $129.95
