foam guns

I just wanted to get an opinion if they make that large a difference? I've never used one let alone seen one (except on the web) I found some pictures of some outstanding looking details and they all started out with the foaming the car. Thanks

I was wondering the same thing. I've seen a few impressive videos on youtube.

Actually unless you are using the 2 bucket method, the foam gun might work well. I sort of hate having to use a ton of soap to keep my mitt soapy. Especially after rinsing the mitt. Would be nice to just rinse the mitt and then already have the soap on the car.

Click "WASHING" and they demonstrate how to use the foam gun to properly lubricate the paint's surface to safely glide over and remove debris without scuffing your clear coat.
The downside is that you're gonna' be using a LOT of soap. Make sure it's environmentally friendly soap that's bio-degradable and doesn't contain harsh chemicals in your run-off.

Yup, lots of useful information, though I don't use many of their products. DetailedImage.com FTW!
