Thanks for the breakdown. I have never used one of these and want to buy one with my next order from ADS. Great post.

Re: A closer look at the Gilmour Foam Gun....
This looks like another product we are stealing from the Eurpoeans in a way I think.
I say this because there was a thread about the foam gun and Europeans.
We took microfiber from them too.
This looks like another product to add the list to buy.
Great pictures and write up!!Leave a comment:

That's cool Brandon.
Let us know what you think, been looking at those too and wondering if the D Line soap or MG line soap would work (going bulk as much as possible).
Good show

A closer look at the Gilmour Foam Gun....
Gilmour Foamaster Adjustable Multi-Ratio Cleaning Gun #75QGFMR
Prior to the purchase of this I wasn't too sure about the foam gun, so I thought I would give those looking into on a little closer look out of the box.
I bought the gun off Amazon for around $35 and as usual free shipping. The hope is that this will save some time in washing my vehicle, at times it can get a little much washing my Avalanche as much as I do and I hope this will help make things quicker.
What you get:
Ratio Markings/Settings:
Filter Screen:
Quick Connects:
I can see this being very handy for rinsing prior to the 'foam down'. I will be adding a quick connect to the hose end to easy change over the the flooding rinse method.
Ratio Setting Adjustment:
In addition to the slidding adjustment there are a couple thumb screws on the main brass body in this photo... I would assume these will fine tune the flow by changing the amount of air entering the foam. You can also rotate the sliding tube to turn the foam on and off.
The Setup:
Yes, so I can't spell.
This seems like a very solid unit, well designed and built with lots of solid brass and heavy duty plastic. I have yet to use it, just waiting for some better weather and you bet the second the weather turns around I will be out testing this thing!
