I just ordered a pump spayer that comes with a foaming tip. I am looking for a waterless wash solution that will foam when used with such a sprayer. Can anyone recommend a waterless wash that can foam when used this way?

Thank you,

The only one on the market is from AMMO. I have it and it gives you a "cushion" of foam to safely remove dirt/salt from your cars finish. I suggest NOT making a gallon at a time, make it "as needed" and use warm water.

The videos are very well done and he takes you through the whole process. Maybe someday one of our vendors will come out with one

Owners pride detailing also offers a foaming rinseless/waterless product. I’ve not used it but it looks interesting.

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I will check out the products you mentioned. I have on hand two products I bought on AG in the past, ONR and Mckees 37 N-914. I have used and liked both as rinseless washes. Do you know if there is actually any added benefit to using a foaming solution as a pretreatment for a rinseless wash, or is the foaming action just a marketing trick and should I just stick to using the ONR and Mckees 37 N-914 with my new pump sprayer?

Well I mentioned in my original post that the AMMO foaming WW, known as Hoseless lift is just that. The foam not only breaks down the dirt but lifts it to the surface to be wiped away. Because it's a Foam, theory, its safer because it creates a "cushion" between the paint and your mf towel. In the AMMO kit you get thinner mf towels and this is because of that Foam, gives you more control. Think about it, foam and then a plush mf towel, your hand handles like a tire with a taller sidewall, more aspect ratio means less control whereas less aspect ratio means more control (sorry to "geek out" here and use a tire reference)

The AMMO product should be your starting point, watch the video as the owner and founder of the company does the videos and is a REAL car guy to boot. I think after watching it you'll be convinced

I have only used Ammo and have not heard of the others. For me, by far, this feels safer than other waterless/rinseless washes. I feel the foam breaks dirt down better and gets it away from paint easier.

A method i read on on here that i think would take it a step further is to foam ammo in and then do a rinseless. May try it.


As of now i pre spray with n-914 let dwell 2-3 minutes and then Frothe. It is for me best in class product for waterless/rinseless

There's also a winter booster available for Frothe as well

Thank you, Bob. I read about this product, but I cannot find it for sale anywhere. It is not listed on AG. I can't even find it listed on 3D's own website. It's almost like the product has been taken off the market. Any suggestions on where I can find it?

Thanks Bob, I had no idea about that product! Next time I place an order I'll pick up some of this and compare it to AMMO

it’s something along the lines of:

Good luck finding it though. I'd love to try it but none of the usual places carry it. Last I looked it's not even on the 3D website.

The 3D doesnt mention it being dilutable. If thats the case based on a gallon being in my guess $30-35, this seems weird but Frothe would be a better value.

At 20x1 you get 336 oz for $35 vs $128. Might have to check out the detailers pride though
