Lance Foam Cannon, CG Mr. Pink review.. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

DARK AGE 53 · 08-23-2013, 12:03 PM

Got my Lance foam Cannon and CG Mr. Pink today from Amazon, thanks to axis I saved almost $25 on the foam cannon.....that about paid for my gallon of Mr. Pink. Thanks axis.

First thing is I power washed just using power washer without the foam cannon attached, once I power washed the entire Terrain I then attached the cannon to the wand.

I used about 4 ounces of Mr. Pink and filled the rest of the container with water, set soap mixer to max and adjusted the nozzel to a pattern I liked.

Once I had gone around the Terrain a couple of times I let it sit for a couple of minutes, I used a wash mitt to go over the entire vehicle and then again used the power washer without the foam cannon attached to remove the soap.

I have to say these two items are well worth getting, wish I would have gotten them a long time ago.....10 out 10 score for both.

I just went out and did a very very quick wash to give you an idea of what it looks like.

CamaroDreams07 · 08-24-2013, 07:18 PM

That looks fantastic. Sounds like you got a great deal

I have well water also, the pressure is so so for the outdoor faucets. Two things to watch for, if you have a inlet filter screen on the PW pump check to see that it's not clogged, on my garden hose I have one of those shut off valves that goes on the end of the garden hose. Turn on the hose until there's a steady flow of water ( no air pockets ), turn off the valve and connect to the PW. Before I start the PW I turn on the garden hose valve and then pull the trigger on the PW hose until I have steady stream of water coming out the wand ( again with no water pockets ), once I do that I have no problems....give it a try.

I'm very pleased with both the Lance Cannon and Mr. Pink. Again, thanks for the link.

I've had my PW now for 21 years, it has a 5HP B&S engine and a Cat Pump and still works fine. I've thought of replacing it with and electric PW but find it hard to pull the trigger, there's a ton on the market but most are a junk in my opinion.....I might feel comfortable buying this one but it's $550 http://www.northerntool.com/shop/too...0514_200350514 .

I have a buddy with a fairly new John Deere that is extremely nice and forsale. I just need to justify buying it.

I have a power washer but I just don't think I'd ever bother to get it out and hook it all up every time I want to wash the car. I'm jealous of foam cannon foam, but too lazy for it.

Do u use a foam gun?

I have a small gas PW.... and would love to use a cannon... just dont want to bother with getting it out everytime i want to wash a car. Considering getting a gun, but they dont look like it does near as nice a job as the cannon.

+1

If I ever brought out my EPW my wife would have me power wash the house and bricks as well. So not worth bringing out of my shed!
