Foam Gun Sprayer
Has anyone's sprayer on a foam gun broken? My sprayer keeps getting stuck and I can't get it to stop shooting water. I was wondering if u could just buy another sprayer or if I had to buy a whole other foam gun. I'll get pics of what broke when I'm back on my computer

foam gun problem
It's funny you mention that, I have noticed that lately the water keeps spraying after I release the handle, but only for a couple of seconds. Hoping it doesn't get worse.
If you come up with a fix, let us know |

I've started to notice the same on my trusty foam gun. It hasn't completely broken though, it still "closes" after a few seconds, but I just usually give it a healthy tug to "close" the stream of water.

Yea, mine was like that as well but now it just won't close :(
I'm going to see if a regular sprayer from home depot or lowe's will work because I love this thing. |

Mine sticks too. I've tried lubing the seal and it didn't help. I bought a Gilmore foam gun to replace it. So far it's been ok. I'm kind of addicted to the gun so I have to have one that works without sticking.

I take it that the gun you have has this type of nozzle attached to it? |

I think mine came from Autopia or Autogeek, and backing off the screw didn't help and neither did lubing it. I have to force the handle back or it won't release. I've never had a nozzle do this before, and unfortunately the soap reservior won't attach to another gun.

I would just put a shut off connector in front of the gun, and see if I could live with that before plunking down more cabbage for a new gun or hitting up the Clause man in 2 months.
