Hi,
I know this is not a show and shine but because of requests, I decided to put this here in its own thread.
First up is a video of the beading and sheeting action from Wolfgang Fuzion. The car has two coats of Fuzion sitting on top of Wolfgang Paintwork Polish Enhancer. The combination is only a week old at this point and the car wasn't too dirty. As usual, YouTube wrecked the quality but I don't blame them since the original size of the video is 96MB.

Now onto the other topic, the Foam Cannon HP Kit. I have a Karcher K367M Pressure Washer with the kit, and the car wash mixture used for these images is around 6oz of Eagle One Nano Wash & Wax Shampoo, 2oz of Optimum No Rinse, and the rest is water. The Eagle One shampoo is unbelievably NOT sudsy but the foam cannon still manages to give decent results. If I use Meguiar's Gold Class Shampoo, it turns my car into a total snowball but I like the Wash & Wax Shampoo/ONR mixture as it gives some additional protection during the wash process. Onto the pictures:
Karcher Pressure Washer with the Foam Cannon HP Kit hooked up and ready to go!
The car has been pre-rinsed with the pressure washer to remove any loose dirt.
The front end lightly sprayed down.
The side of the vehicle lightly sprayed. Btw, the bucket is filled with Meguiar's Gold Class, and YES I am FINALLY using the two-bucket method with twin Grit Guards and it rocks!
Getting cocky with that foam! You can't tell, but the Foam Cannon HP nicely coats the wheels, tires, wheel wells, and inner wheel barrels in a thick layer of foam.
Letting the foam dwell.
Again...I think I just keep re-spraying and taking pictures because it was hard to spray and then dry my hands and snap a good picture.
Very nice white blanket on the rear end. When I used the free 2oz sample of DP Xtreme Foam, I wasn't able to read my license plate or the emblems/logos on the back of the vehicle!
After having washed the vehicle, I refilled the bottle with the same car soap/ONR mixture and let it dwell for a few minutes. I'm letting the ONR and Wash & Wax shampoo get absorbed by the paint to add some more protection.
Foam slowly fading away.
More fading...a lot of whiteness is gone now.
I like to thoroughly spray the wheels and wheel wells during this last soak process. It gives the rims and the wheel barrels a nice shine and some added protection without much effort on my part.
The hood and the windshield are still getting owned by the foam. I guess on horizontal surfaces, the foam has nowhere to go. So much foam on the driveway!
Thanks for looking. I will do my best to answer questions and comments.
Thanks,
Emile
