Ebay foam lance

anyone try one of these, they look alot like the mtm ones but for twenty or thirty dollar vs the MTM 50-70 dollar ones. seems like the market on ebay is flooded with them, Utube vids look good. ordered one for 24 and change from a supplier in NY

I bought the DUSICHIN SFL-001 off of amazon for $20. Gets pretty good foam if you use enough soap. Probably put 4oz in with hot water.

I've always wanted one of these, but way too lazy to drag the pressure wash out to wash my car

yep was looking at that one, pretty much the same design or it might be the exact same one just with a different name on it.

Came here to post about the Amazon one and I see someone already did.... it works great even with my 1200 or whatever electric pressure washer. I put in 4 oz of soap and some warm water.

been about a year and a half since I looked in to getting one, price always turned me off, don't know why I decided to look it up again but glad I did. didn't realize there was a more affordable option out there

I got the Stihl from Amazon as well... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I use Adams Car Wash Shampoo, around 3 oz, then fill the rest of the bottle with water. The less soap you use the faster it goes through the lance. I have used a concentrated formula around 4 oz of soap with 16 oz of water and the result is a thicker foam, I do that for the wheels, wheel tubs and engine bay.

I 2nd Adams soap. I'm an avid Adams user and have most of their products and while they aren't the cheapest option, I've yet to use something I haven't liked.
