http://www.pressureparts.com/Pressure-Part-344032.aspx this of course

and this

The way it is set up right now, is the gun, the long lance, and then the foamer at the end!! It makes for a VERY long wand, but it is really easy to switch back to the normal tips without any screwing or unscrewing. Just kinda hard to manage, (thus all the foam on the ground too) First time using it!!

Z7 is great!!! It foams up great too (at least it did in the foamaster), I am sure it will rock on the foam cannon.

But I use 75% Chemical guys products in all my details, and I used maxi suds 2 here. But for my customers that are not getting maintenance washes, or getting full details. CG Citrus wash is what I will be using to really clean the paint (also remove all LSP).

Wow...look at you go!

Try to add 2oz of z7 then add water to the container SLOWLY to not cause foam, then screw it on and shake it up.

See how that works for you! You don't want make the foam in the container! Or add the water first and then put i the soap, whichever you prefer!

Also when you get it, you will see a dial on the side to adjust the amount of foam, I turned mine ALL the way up!! (10 i think)

Hope I am helping you!!
