Been seeing these foam cannons that you either hook up with the hose or a pressure washer all over the net lately. Anyone know if anywhere local sales then?

They look awesome. I think the most popular is the chemical guys.

MTM is the one you want. You will need to order it. Some brands call them a foam lance which may help your search.

Unless your car is absolutely filthy dirty, you really don't need one. I have one I got on amazon a while back, but I really only use it on detail days...though I think it was causing waterspot/soapspot issues on my paint so I rarely use it now.

You need pH neutral foam

Well, my main problem is water quality in Lake Charles + not drying quite quick enough. Using the foam as a pre-soak caused soap and water to dry near the bed-caps on the bed. Think I was using Griot's Garage car shampoo at the time.

I clayed, polished, and sealed last weekend, so good to go now. Used a "synthetic" clay for the first time and really liked it.

Just my opinion but I think the chemical guys lance is extremely over priced

I got this one for $25.00 a while back. It was branded by another company, don't see it available on Amazon anymore unfortunately.

Gilmour Foamaster 75QGF4

ETA: It's the same as the Chemical Guys Foam Lance.

some brass quick connects will make it easy to switch from the gun to water nozzle. I dont use the supplied trigger sprayer.
