This is a really useful video, this information - a practical example of how the tool actually works in real life scenarios - was exactly what I was after. Bottle use being my use case, and not really knowing how the different nozzle / attachment options actually worked. Ryobi should 💯 have this video on their 41BAR washer product page. Great presentation also: The video wasn't unnecessarily long (great editing), did not have intrusive music, and no ums & ahs. Really great work! Thank you!
I just bought one this weekend. I want it for between car washes to get off pollen and bird poop and ice melt in the winter and to use in my shower. I love that I watched this and found out about the gallon accessory because that is perfect. I suspect the 2-liter attachment would cause it to not last as long. Even better that I will be able to lengthen the hose from a bucket. Very cool.
Even cooler accessory I just bought is a 3 gallon backpack tank that quick connects to this. I use it to clean our shower as well. Works great getting bird poop of my mailbox way away from the house too.
7:56 Thank you for reviewing the chemical sprayer adapter pack. That 1 gallon jug adapter is perfect for just spraying down the car using the foaming cannon attachment. I have a pressure washer as well, but have become annoyed with the remove/disconnect/change of hose and attachments when trying to complete the job efficiently. I can also see this being useful for pesticides and fertilizer. Definitely better than untangling and hauling out the 100 foot hose just do do a small cleaning job far away from the house.
The one important accessory you omitted to mention is the EZClean Power Cleaner 6 ft. Flexible Wand. It snaps onto the front nozzle, and allows you to put the whole unit on the ground and spray just with this easily maneuverable nozzle connected by a flexible plastic hose. It works great especially with the foam canister. And IMHO the 40V system is vastly superior (especially if you're already on that battery system), and it also comes with a longer 5 year warranty (except for the battery).
I saw that the other day at Home Depot. Was not on the shelf when I bought all the accessories. Thank you for pointing that out. I am big on the 40v system and have the 1500 PSI battery pressure washer that came with two 6AH batteries. The reason I chose the 18v is when traveling its a much smaller battery and I have 6AH 18v batteries and thought it would be lighter and the bottom is not as big.
@@MSFerrari248F1 I'll be making a video soon, but the results are kind of iffy. It doesn't make it to where you get a good foam cannon spray, but you do get to use any 1/4 nozzle you want.
Its just an old gallon soap jug from DIY Detail. They don't actually impact the amount of foam you get with this machine and the foam cannon. It just gives you more liquid to run longer. You can also run it from a bucket with the same results. You would need the chemical accessory kit to get the gallon bottle adapter. amzn.to/47zcje6
After this great review I will purchase for simple side jobs/detailing. But I am wondering, if it would work the same/prime itself if a garden hose is used to connect the PW to a water tank?
It would work that way and the garden hose straight from the house spigot will work as well. The quick connect works with many of the other ones out in the market. Gardena style quick connects if you want to look up the style. It might struggle priming if it’s say a very large 3/4 garden hose. Keep the diameter 5/8 or less and should work just fine.
Came across this video yesterday while searching for options to detail my car. I was looking at pump sprayers, manual and electric. I'd totally forgotten Ryobi had accessories for the EZ Clean, which I have! Off to Home Depot today and the chemical kit was reduced to $9.98. I also picked up the foam cannon. It's good enough to use in winter when the garden hose is frozen and I can't use my Ryobi 1600 psi electric pressure washer. Nice demo video! 👍👍
I live the ez clean and the chemical accessories is a must. I have found out how to hack their wand to accept 1/4 inch quick connects will be doing a video soon so you can use a real foam cannon and we can actually measure the psi.
Would you recommend adding a bit of s100, a high quality soap etc to 2 liter bottle for motorcycle washing? Any potential issues w clogging? If I tried that, I'd run few bottles of clean water after. Thanks
I don’t foresee any issue as long as you clear it out. It is already designed to shoot chemicals through the bottle. My only concern is the 2 liter bottle is a bit heavy with liquid in it. Using the gallon jug hose attachment or a smaller 20 oz coke bottle might be better.
@@RobertDStark Bottle is just a normal thread. Need to get the chemical accessory kit it comes with the adapter for gallon jugs. It’s the only way I know of to get one. amzn.to/3Ae3aLM
I tested out the Foam Cannon dilution dial settings. At full "+" the output is 6:1 (for each ounce taken from the foam cannon, 6 ounces from the water source is consumed), and at full "-" the output is 16:1. Not sure why your FC was diluting so much at full +.
@@CarsWithKeav very possible, particularly if too much product was put in the foam cannon. From what I calculated, both the Incredible Suds and DIY Rinseless should've been diluted by about 1:16 in the cannon reservoir.
Could you get more foam on the low setting as less water is coming out? just a thought. I know higher pressure proabably is better for foaming but would love to see that.,
Very informative, thanks. I want a unit that will soft-wash and then rinse: If I were to siphon Sodium Percarbonate/water mixture out of a 5-gallon bucket, would this unit have the power to reach second floor eaves, maybe a 20 foot stream needed? Then I figured I would hook up to the garden hose for rinsing purposes. I want to siphon so I can keep the mixture constant vs using a foam cannon that doesn't look to have much reach anyway.
Would this work with a 5 gallon bucket for something like DIY Quick Beads, or Gyeon Wet Coat? (apply, spray off with water) If so, what tip would you recommend? I have to carry my water source outside in buckets so being able to use rinseless in the car and use this to blast my wheels off after Brake Buster and then some form of protection would be fantastic.
Absolutely you could. I have use them this way as well when traveling. The 40 degree tip works pretty good for just about anything. Adjusting the strength from 1 to 3 helps change it from mist to a less wasteful spray pattern. Just make sure to always have a bottle of distilled or DI water to run through for a bit after the wash is done so nothing gets gunked up.
I can’t even remember the bottle I used is like all the other gallons ones I have used and it works on all of them. The bottle adapter that comes with it fits 2 liter bottles and smaller. You have to buy the chemcial nozzle kit to get the one that fits gallon bottles. amzn.to/4d0BVS7
9:11 I bought this kit and I cannot put turbo attachment directly to washer, there is a sort of nipple in the attachment and in the washer there is no space for it. It extension there is. It seems like Ryobi intended only for this attachment to be used with extension?
@@darekmistrz4364 You have an Instagram? I could send a pic there. Mine has the alignment arrow and has the same assembly as all the other attachments. Snaps right in. Is yours the new ones with the metal quick connect for the water source or the plastic one?
@@CarsWithKeav Metal quick connect. No Instagram unfortunately. Mine has arrow, but additionally on the mating surface there is a alignment bump/nipple that is present on turbo attachment, but no space for it in washer itself. But on extension there is a space for that nipple.
I have that EZ Clean and it is not difficult to convert to a 1/4" quick connect if you are willing to spend some money. What I did was to remove the nozzle from a Ryobi EZ Clean brush Model# RY3112MB and drilled the threaded end out large enough to use an M22 X 1.5mm tap. After tapping the nozzle I screwed in a brass M22 1/4" pressure washer female quick connect with a bit of teflon tape wrapped around the threads and I now have a standard quick connect for my EZ Clean. I also made another one by using a Ryobi 12" replacement wand Model# RY3112EW following the same procedure. One additional note, when you modify the wand by drilling the end out, it will remove the attachment release clip, so depending on your 1/4" quick connect this could allow for water to escape where the release clip once was. This happened to me so I simply put an O-ring in the bottom of the wand, screwed in the quick connect and it is water tight. * Be sure to check everything for fitment *_before_* making any modifications so as to not end up with a pile of useless parts. YMMV
Appreciate the info. I have thought of doing this, but felt it was too much to show my viewers. Most that get these would not attempt to modify so much. There is a product on Ryobi website that is the 1/4 connection for this they just have not released and unsure if they ever will.
@@CarsWithKeav That adapter has been on Ryobi's website for about 2-3 years now. I doubt that they will ever release it because they would rather sell you their over-priced proprietary attachments.
At 7:56 in the video, you show a 1 gallon container with a 1 gallon "adapter", where did you get that 1 gallon adapter? I've searched all of Ryobi and Home Depot and can't find it. Thanks for a great video, just used it for the first time and it's awesome. I would have ended up with the previous version had I not stumbled on your video...thank you!
@@CarsWithKeav Thank you for answering and providing the link. I don't need or want any of those other parts, just the 1-gallon adapter. Typical Ryobi making you buy $40 worth of parts to get the $10 item you need.
@@HomeMedia-f4b Agree. I was looking for a gallon to quart adapter 38mm to 28mm so I can use the include hose but it doesn't look like anyone's made such a thing.
I know I'm late to the party but do you continue to use this and if so have you ever used it hooked up directly to a garden hose with constant water supply?
I have not used it hooked to a water supply, but it will work that way as well. I just used the other day to clean the gravestones at my family plot. Use it to clean the bird poop off my mailbox.
@@CarsWithKeavThe ease of running water through tonclean it at the end is what I'm looking! With pump up sprayers, you have to empty the jug, rinse it a couple times, put water in, pump it up and then spray the water through. Whereas with this, you can keep chemicals in jugs and still easily flush the sprayer with water.

I have watched your reviews of the USB charged foamers from Amazon. They produce a pretty nice foam whereas this one seems very watery. Now that one year has passed since you released this video, do you have any tips and trix of how to improve the Ryobi foamer?
I have found no way to get better foam. The sprayer itself has been working great. I use it all over the place from bird poop droppings on my mail box to cleaning street signs near the house.you can do a good bit with a 5 gallon bucket. I see a way to modify a current accessory and adapt to 1/4 to run normal Foam cannons, but have not tried as it looks like it will compromise strength and not be able to hold the weight.
6 місяців тому
@@CarsWithKeav thanks, I purchased the RAC748 foam accessory yesterday, and I will give it a go for my bike, car wheels, outdoor furnitures and so on. For the car, we'll see. I guess the choice of chemicals will determine how thick the foam will be.
Super cool! I’m looking at getting one of these, a 5 gallon bucket with some rinseless wash in it and that longer extension hose, do a sort of hybrid rinseless wash! So cool and I already have a few 6 ah and 4 ah batteries
You would not believe the amount of thing I have used this for so far. Cleaning my mailbox, took 10 gallons to a family burial plot and cleaned the headstones, you name it.
Nice review. You got me thinking if i should return my electric ik style sprayer i just received since i already have this ryobi just need to buy the bottleadapter would be cheaper
This thing does it all and does it well. Only Advantage to the IK style sprayer is quick easy use. The Ryobi is a bit ore to get out and get things setup.
Hey Keav. I saw a video on how to fit a 1/4 quick connect from another UA-camr called Kintsugi Moto. I thought it was interesting and I thought if you were able to do that you could do all your tests you couldn’t do here. I’m curious to know what size standard pressure washer tips would be needed for that
Just watched it and this is what I have been thinking about doing. Just spent all my time figuring out the Giraffe tools hose reel adapters I never had the time. Lots of forums and Reddit have been floating around the idea for some time now many even have 3d printer files to make your own adapter. I’ll probably do a video on it so we can see the actual PSI and what nozzle we can use for specific things like rinseless or using an MJJC foam cannon.
@@CarsWithKeav that would be awesome! I just got one of these and I’m a mobile detailer but I don’t have a water tank but I want to use this as a start. I would greatly appreciate that info and appreciate all the videos you do!
That is one of the things they advertise. Probably want to use 15 degree or 0 degree for the weed killer. The chemical nozzles mist so you could spray on something you don’t want. Also there is an accessory that connects the this unit and gives you a 6 foot wand that’s like a chemical pump sprayer for weed killer. They also make 2 and 3 gallon backpack bottles you can connect to hold more liquid.
@@CarsWithKeavI'm wanting to wash aphid dripping. Called "honeydew" sticky nasty syrup. Garden hose doesn't clean it. I'm looking for a solution other than dragging out my pressure washer. This may be the ticket.
Do you know how long the battery lasts if you have say 3 5 gallon buckets. Will it be enough to do a whole car on one battery for wheels, rinse whole car, prewash, rinse, then rinse again after a hand wash? I know they make bigger batteries that are compatible but im hoping to be able to do a whole car with one battery. Whether that’s a 9a or the 40v with an upgraded battery
You could do a whole car with at least a 6AH 18 volt with the wash you describe. If you are looking for longevity I would suggest the 40v version of this and run a 4AH battery.
VERY INFORMATIVE! Wish you were able to test their FLEX WAND HOSE which really seems very useful since only moving nozzle/head and not the pump/hose/bottle. I think I'm going to have to get the mega kit with 4ah battery which I DO NOT NEED (!) LOL I want ALL the attachments.
Yeah, it wasn’t available when I bout this at least not at the Home Depot I was at. I always tell myself I never need a new battery. Then yesterday happens as I’m running a drill, grinder, blower, sander and shop/vac. Went through a couple batteries with the grinder and next thing I knew I was waiting for a battery to charge. 🤣 I hate swapping batteries around which I do sure could have.
@@CarsWithKeav a few days ago in the Home Depot clearance rack, they had Ryobi a special offer 4ah & 6ah High Performance batter combo for $70. (!) I have way too many batteries but I HAD to buy it. I'm 71 and I give out before the battery, I'd rather get a deal on a 2ah comb but I do have the lowly 13" 18v lawn mower (and have been eyeing up the 16" brushless that takes 2 batteries (!) haha)
Is the foam cannon / bottle that you show in the video, compatible with the 320 psi power washer? I bought that "other" bottle and I get the feeling that it does not fit 100% onto the 600 psi version.
It should be compatible. RY120350 is the 320 psi, but since it la half the PSI it might not dispense soap foam as well. This is on the Home Depot website for it. “Compatible with all RYOBI EZClean Power Cleaners (RY120350, RY120352K, RY121850, RY121852K, RY124050, RY124052K)”
Hey Keav, I'm looking for a pressure washer like this for washing my wheels as I mostly wash the rest with rinsless, but BMW wheels man.. I dont have ceramic pads on it yet and it dusts like CRAZY! Just wondering, is this your favorite electric pressure washer? Or can you recommend something else? A great vid 4 sure, as most of them ⚡️
This is a great portable solution and actually works really well for rinseless as it can siphon the Rinseless and spray on the surface. Giving you good pressure to knock off some accumulated dirt as well.
@@CarsWithKeav Thank you so much Keav, your knowledge in this matter is next to none, keep doing this amazing work, i will binge watch some more of your previous ones ;)
for some reason, i can buy the mist kit but it doesn't come with the 40 degree nozzle, in fact is seems as if I cant buy that on it's own in the UK. is there any way I can attach a 40 degree or higher nozzle on this pressure washer, is it a universal attachment for the ryobi EZ clean?
There is currently no attachment that lets you run other nozzles. I wish there was though Ryobi even has a part number for it for at least a year, but never sold it.
Compared to what you get from a normal pressure washer yes it’s expensive, but anything battery operated and portable is going to be higher. Plus when they engineer them to where you have you seen all their accessories it gets even more expensive. That’s why I use Ryobi as the Dewalt and other brands are even more expensive.
@@jblaze725 This would work great in my opinion. I only do rinse less washes on my car. So I haven’t use my Ryobi 1600 pressure washer in a long time. With this unit you could pre spray a car and then do your contact wash with your rinse less solution. No dragging out a pressure washer and using the customer water source. I’m actually considering it.
The foamer is kind of a downstream option, but biggest issue using this as a chemical sprayer is figuring out dilutions. So much water mixing with the chemicals.
I have the ez clean 600 and a decent amount of accessories. Seeing that chemical spray nozzle kit has me wanting that for applying rinseless Wash pretreat rather than pumping my iK multi 😭 I have the pressure washer nozzle upgrades which I’ve used to pretreat ONR on the panel but I feel like the chemical nozzles would do better as to not waste product. Thanks for the video!
what if we dont use foam cannon and instead fill bucket with car wash to spray foam and then use another bucket of water to rinse, will that get the job done
If you spray car soap diluted in a bucket it will be very bubbly I would think. Will have to try and find out. It would still be lubrication so that’s still good.
You can remove the adapter at the end of the rod and attach a 1/8 female to 1/4 male MIP adapter. Your can then attach a 1/4 quick connect adapter on it. Total cost less than $12
@@Gin81593 Because the foam cannon they made is not very good and 600 psi with 1gpm is not enough to agitate soap to that kind of thickness. I am working on video to hack this to allow you to use normal connections and use real good foam cannons to get better foam.
I used it for insecticide the other day with a backpack tank so I would say no issue just make sure to run clean water through it when done. Distilled or DI water of you have it.
I thought it was funny that this guy is wearing an Obsessed Garage shirt, the wash set-up, the Swisstrax flooring, and then he said "stouter". Obviously a super-fan of Matt Moreman.
He may have been one of the first UA-camrs I watched when it came to garage stuff, but not really into his content the last few years I have gone my own path. I actually just like the looks of the shirt. Swisstrax are awesome so that’s why I got them all the race shops near Road Atlanta had them so I got to see them up close plus Swisstrax is made right down the street from me. Matt would call my setup trash as 95% of it is from Amazon and all my design. I built it for less than a Kranzle costs. Thanks for assuming though I think it’s kind of ironic a super fan would even be holding a Ryobi trash contraption. 🤣🤣🤣
I just bought one and don't nearly see the pressure you seem to have. Could be the indoor setting as opposed to outdoors. It's does wash the car completely. I use 3/4 full 5 gal bucket with second 1/2 full 5 gal bucket. I think I could do two cars not in direct sun light, foam dries very fast. You need to keep misting car. With two people this isn't an issue as they rinse right behind you.
Direct sunlight is no fun everything wants to dry so fast and you constantly have to wet it. It could just be an illusion with the camera. I would expect them all to have the same pressure.
@@yeettis it’s tough to sift through the crap that’s out there. Ryobi did drop the price it’s $159 with battery now. There is a full set at $199 that has a lot of the accessory I show in the video. $99 tool only version now as well.
7:15 ...I have a foam cannon that I've been pretty disappointed with. I even got a smaller orifice for it. Still disappointing. I swear to you, if I go outside and turning that damn dial to the - side makes better foam...
Those turn knobs are just plain useless if you want thick foam all the time. I just turn all the way in one direction and whichever give me more foam is the way I go which 99% of the time is full clockwise.
Fill a bucket with no grit guard with a 2gallons of distilled water, add your 1oz of rinseless, fill a 32 oz trigger bottle, mist on with the Ryobi and chemical nozzle, and you still have 224oz for your wash.
Great idea! I’m just not a fan of a full rinseless since it require a contact to dry. I rinse off and use a blower so I have little contact as possible. I just use it as a pre wash for lubricity on the first rinse.
There has to be something defective in that. I just tried mine and it goes in just right. Sorry it isn’t working for you. It has warranty might be able to see if they can replace it.
Sorry Ryobi, let's throw in the towel and stick to yard equipment lol. The gallon attachment is obviously safer, it's neat but good for mobile detailers tag teaming a single car for faster cleaning while the team lead uses the pressure washer, like a boss.
@CarsWithKeav lol. Do you understand the reason people use a pressure washer instead of a regular hose? There's a purpose. And many professionals including myself say that you need around 900 yo 1200 psi to do a correct job if you are going to use a pressure washer. If not then why not just use a hose like you said? Have a great day.
@@scottmcbride2237 Pressure washers are mainly used for efficiency as it’s a quicker process when time is money in detailing. I love using pressure washers my channel is built around them and I think as well 1k PSI is the sweet spot, but that is about what is safe for the paint not the best cleaning pressure. Think what you want to think, but making things easier does not mean you can’t clean as good with a garden hose it will just take longer. One exception being caked on mud most likely. Good day to you as well.
The plastic breaks. It is a weak point of the tool. It has not been addressed or improved. If u look at a lot of reviews that is the main reason the tool is rated poorly. I went to look at it to see for myself wanting buy it. it is cheap and flimsy. Even on your test u can see how flimsy it is. It appears that the more on off cycles the faster it will break. It appears it is not a matter of If, its more of when it will break. from all reviews and looking at it it will be sooner than later.
@@njackson18 Mine is still going strong and use it all the time. I know many who are using theirs in a car washing business constantly especially in the winter and working great. I would not attach a 2 liter bottle to it that’s for sure. Using a siphon hose and a one gallon bottle is the way to go. Mine has a metal base for the quick connection so not sure about any flimsy plastic except for the bottle connection which you can get metal connections for that as well. There are two models of this and the cheaper one is for sure flimsy maybe that’s the one you got? If you did get the exact one I got maybe there was a manufacturing change? The bottle connections are plastic and flimsy, but ai don’t use them.
COMPLETE GARBAGE - this tool wont even run 15mins on the 4aH battery. It overheats and shuts down, you probably need a 12aH battery to even think about washing a vehicle.
That’s weird I took this on a car show trip to Orlando and was able to do an entire wash without issue pretty easily on a 4AH battery. I have used to spray insecticide all around my house and last much longer than 15 minutes.
Sponsored by me and my wallet. What bits did you want to see? I can’t read every bodies minds on what they want to see. I showed every accessory and how they work.
Yes, for the bottom connection for the bottles and water input it is the usual quick connects that you find doesn't even have to Gardenia many copy that style. I was referring to the spray nozzle side being proprietary which there are not others that have that style and no adapters yet to allow conversion to 1/4 quick connects.
It was an empty jug that had Turtle wax Max power in it. You can buy them empty here amzn.to/46N3igG the bucket is from Chemical Guys and is on Amazon here amzn.to/3rmNLUu

Where did you buy the gallon hand held from?... seems to be very handy with good power for doing rims and tires...plus the foam doesn't seem bad...
Its just an old gallon soap jug from DIY Detail. They don't actually impact the amount of foam you get with this machine and the foam cannon. It just gives you more liquid to run longer. You can also run it from a bucket with the same results. You would need the chemical accessory kit to get the gallon bottle adapter. amzn.to/47zcje6
Is there a way to use a 3rd party foam canister or it only works for the ryobi?
No way as of yet to adapt to any other third part accessories. Ryobi has had the part listed for years, but never released it.
After this great review I will purchase for simple side jobs/detailing. But I am wondering, if it would work the same/prime itself if a garden hose is used to connect the PW to a water tank?
It would work that way and the garden hose straight from the house spigot will work as well. The quick connect works with many of the other ones out in the market. Gardena style quick connects if you want to look up the style. It might struggle priming if it’s say a very large 3/4 garden hose. Keep the diameter 5/8 or less and should work just fine.
Came across this video yesterday while searching for options to detail my car. I was looking at pump sprayers, manual and electric. I'd totally forgotten Ryobi had accessories for the EZ Clean, which I have!
Off to Home Depot today and the chemical kit was reduced to $9.98. I also picked up the foam cannon. It's good enough to use in winter when the garden hose is frozen and I can't use my Ryobi 1600 psi electric pressure washer.
Nice demo video!
👍👍
I love that I can carry a gallon windshield washer bottle in one hand and spray with the other, using the 5 ft hose. Awesome!
I live the ez clean and the chemical accessories is a must. I have found out how to hack their wand to accept 1/4 inch quick connects will be doing a video soon so you can use a real foam cannon and we can actually measure the psi.
Would you recommend adding a bit of s100, a high quality soap etc to 2 liter bottle for motorcycle washing? Any potential issues w clogging? If I tried that, I'd run few bottles of clean water after. Thanks
I don’t foresee any issue as long as you clear it out. It is already designed to shoot chemicals through the bottle. My only concern is the 2 liter bottle is a bit heavy with liquid in it. Using the gallon jug hose attachment or a smaller 20 oz coke bottle might be better.

I tested out the Foam Cannon dilution dial settings. At full "+" the output is 6:1 (for each ounce taken from the foam cannon, 6 ounces from the water source is consumed), and at full "-" the output is 16:1.
Not sure why your FC was diluting so much at full +.
Question is does the foam cannon dilute differently based on the thickness of the liquid in the bottle? Thx for the info!
@@CarsWithKeav very possible, particularly if too much product was put in the foam cannon.
From what I calculated, both the Incredible Suds and DIY Rinseless should've been diluted by about 1:16 in the cannon reservoir.
Thanks for showing attachments and accessories with uses as well. Definitely need one in my arsenal lol.
You’re welcome! I love mine use it all the time.
Could you get more foam on the low setting as less water is coming out? just a thought. I know higher pressure proabably is better for foaming but would love to see that.,
Low pressure is worse not enough pressure to aerate the soap into more foam.
Can u use the chemical nozzles for washing car and soap spraying
I don’t see why not.
Very informative, thanks. I want a unit that will soft-wash and then rinse: If I were to siphon Sodium Percarbonate/water mixture out of a 5-gallon bucket, would this unit have the power to reach second floor eaves, maybe a 20 foot stream needed? Then I figured I would hook up to the garden hose for rinsing purposes. I want to siphon so I can keep the mixture constant vs using a foam cannon that doesn't look to have much reach anyway.
I think it might struggle at that distance, but they do make 3 foot extensions for these so that might help as well.
Would this work with a 5 gallon bucket for something like DIY Quick Beads, or Gyeon Wet Coat? (apply, spray off with water) If so, what tip would you recommend? I have to carry my water source outside in buckets so being able to use rinseless in the car and use this to blast my wheels off after Brake Buster and then some form of protection would be fantastic.
Absolutely you could. I have use them this way as well when traveling. The 40 degree tip works pretty good for just about anything. Adjusting the strength from 1 to 3 helps change it from mist to a less wasteful spray pattern. Just make sure to always have a bottle of distilled or DI water to run through for a bit after the wash is done so nothing gets gunked up.
hi, Can you please tell me what kind of jug are you using, the standard bottle adapter doesnt work with most 1 gal jugs. Many thanks!!
I can’t even remember the bottle I used is like all the other gallons ones I have used and it works on all of them. The bottle adapter that comes with it fits 2 liter bottles and smaller. You have to buy the chemcial nozzle kit to get the one that fits gallon bottles. amzn.to/4d0BVS7
9:11 I bought this kit and I cannot put turbo attachment directly to washer, there is a sort of nipple in the attachment and in the washer there is no space for it. It extension there is. It seems like Ryobi intended only for this attachment to be used with extension?
That’s weird, min plugs right in has the same connection as the extension. My turbo attachment came with the product.
@@CarsWithKeav Maybe mine is faulty from factory? Can you tell me if your turbo attachment has a positioning nipple too?
@@darekmistrz4364 You have an Instagram? I could send a pic there. Mine has the alignment arrow and has the same assembly as all the other attachments. Snaps right in. Is yours the new ones with the metal quick connect for the water source or the plastic one?
@@CarsWithKeav Metal quick connect. No Instagram unfortunately. Mine has arrow, but additionally on the mating surface there is a alignment bump/nipple that is present on turbo attachment, but no space for it in washer itself. But on extension there is a space for that nipple.
@@darekmistrz4364 That’s just weird. The end of the extension is the exact same on mine versus the machine.
I have that EZ Clean and it is not difficult to convert to a 1/4" quick connect if you are willing to spend some money. What I did was to remove the nozzle from a Ryobi EZ Clean brush Model# RY3112MB and drilled the threaded end out large enough to use an M22 X 1.5mm tap. After tapping the nozzle I screwed in a brass M22 1/4" pressure washer female quick connect with a bit of teflon tape wrapped around the threads and I now have a standard quick connect for my EZ Clean. I also made another one by using a Ryobi 12" replacement wand Model# RY3112EW following the same procedure.
One additional note, when you modify the wand by drilling the end out, it will remove the attachment release clip, so depending on your 1/4" quick connect this could allow for water to escape where the release clip once was. This happened to me so I simply put an O-ring in the bottom of the wand, screwed in the quick connect and it is water tight.
* Be sure to check everything for fitment *_before_* making any modifications so as to not end up with a pile of useless parts. YMMV
Appreciate the info. I have thought of doing this, but felt it was too much to show my viewers. Most that get these would not attempt to modify so much. There is a product on Ryobi website that is the 1/4 connection for this they just have not released and unsure if they ever will.
@@CarsWithKeav That adapter has been on Ryobi's website for about 2-3 years now. I doubt that they will ever release it because they would rather sell you their over-priced proprietary attachments.
I've converted mine to 1/4" quick connect to, game changer
At 7:56 in the video, you show a 1 gallon container with a 1 gallon "adapter", where did you get that 1 gallon adapter? I've searched all of Ryobi and Home Depot and can't find it. Thanks for a great video, just used it for the first time and it's awesome. I would have ended up with the previous version had I not stumbled on your video...thank you!
Here you go. amzn.to/3oZeKEx
@@CarsWithKeav Thank you for answering and providing the link. I don't need or want any of those other parts, just the 1-gallon adapter. Typical Ryobi making you buy $40 worth of parts to get the $10 item you need.
@@HomeMedia-f4b Agree. I was looking for a gallon to quart adapter 38mm to 28mm so I can use the include hose but it doesn't look like anyone's made such a thing.
I know I'm late to the party but do you continue to use this and if so have you ever used it hooked up directly to a garden hose with constant water supply?
I have not used it hooked to a water supply, but it will work that way as well. I just used the other day to clean the gravestones at my family plot. Use it to clean the bird poop off my mailbox.
Does this connect to the garden cones?
It’s sure does.
Wonder if this would be viable to use for a spot free rinse?
Absolutely
Would be good for applying bulk chemical, apc, wheel acid, rinesless wash etc.
Yes, it does well for all that and chemicals for the lawn. Best thing is it’s easy to just run some water through when done.
@@CarsWithKeavThe ease of running water through tonclean it at the end is what I'm looking!
With pump up sprayers, you have to empty the jug, rinse it a couple times, put water in, pump it up and then spray the water through.
Whereas with this, you can keep chemicals in jugs and still easily flush the sprayer with water.
@@themikeroberts Agreed and switching between chemicals is much easier.
Is there a way to get it to spray a more dry foam.
Trying to figure that out. Will let you know if I figure something out.
where did you order those adaptors because mine come woth the long adapators
I got everything at my local Home Depot.
Where is the links for the sprayer nozzles
Only available at Home Depot. These are the nozzles www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI-EZClean-Power-Cleaner-Nozzle-Accessory-Kit-RY3112NK/318318349
I have watched your reviews of the USB charged foamers from Amazon. They produce a pretty nice foam whereas this one seems very watery. Now that one year has passed since you released this video, do you have any tips and trix of how to improve the Ryobi foamer?
I have found no way to get better foam. The sprayer itself has been working great. I use it all over the place from bird poop droppings on my mail box to cleaning street signs near the house.you can do a good bit with a 5 gallon bucket. I see a way to modify a current accessory and adapt to 1/4 to run normal
Foam cannons, but have not tried as it looks like it will compromise strength and not be able to hold the weight.
@@CarsWithKeav thanks, I purchased the RAC748 foam accessory yesterday, and I will give it a go for my bike, car wheels, outdoor furnitures and so on. For the car, we'll see. I guess the choice of chemicals will determine how thick the foam will be.
Can you compare that to Greenworks 24V Hand-Held Brushless 600 PSI
I’ll look into it.
Super cool! I’m looking at getting one of these, a 5 gallon bucket with some rinseless wash in it and that longer extension hose, do a sort of hybrid rinseless wash! So cool and I already have a few 6 ah and 4 ah batteries
You would not believe the amount of thing I have used this for so far. Cleaning my mailbox, took 10 gallons to a family burial plot and cleaned the headstones, you name it.
@@CarsWithKeav nice! hows the durability? i seen some reviews on home depot that it didnt last a year
The best video I watched. Looked at eight. Now to go shopping. and review. Thanks
Appreciate that!
Nice review. You got me thinking if i should return my electric ik style sprayer i just received since i already have this ryobi just need to buy the bottleadapter would be cheaper
This thing does it all and does it well. Only Advantage to the IK style sprayer is quick easy use. The Ryobi is a bit ore to get out and get things setup.
Hey Keav. I saw a video on how to fit a 1/4 quick connect from another UA-camr called Kintsugi Moto. I thought it was interesting and I thought if you were able to do that you could do all your tests you couldn’t do here. I’m curious to know what size standard pressure washer tips would be needed for that
Just watched it and this is what I have been thinking about doing. Just spent all my time figuring out the Giraffe tools hose reel adapters I never had the time. Lots of forums and Reddit have been floating around the idea for some time now many even have 3d printer files to make your own adapter. I’ll probably do a video on it so we can see the actual PSI and what nozzle we can use for specific things like rinseless or using an MJJC foam cannon.
@@CarsWithKeav that would be awesome! I just got one of these and I’m a mobile detailer but I don’t have a water tank but I want to use this as a start. I would greatly appreciate that info and appreciate all the videos you do!
Where can I buy that gallon jug with the handle at the top?
Here is a link - amzn.to/3X5oWrY
I have that cleaner. Wonder about using it on low to spray weed kill without the chemical nozzles?
That is one of the things they advertise. Probably want to use 15 degree or 0 degree for the weed killer. The chemical nozzles mist so you could spray on something you don’t want. Also there is an accessory that connects the this unit and gives you a 6 foot wand that’s like a chemical pump sprayer for weed killer. They also make 2 and 3 gallon backpack bottles you can connect to hold more liquid.
@@CarsWithKeav Preciate that!
Is it any better than a regular hose with nozzle? Other than portability?
Has 6 times the pressure of what a normal hose could do with the best nozzle. Depends if you want cleaning power or just a rinse.
@@CarsWithKeavI'm wanting to wash aphid dripping. Called "honeydew" sticky nasty syrup. Garden hose doesn't clean it. I'm looking for a solution other than dragging out my pressure washer. This may be the ticket.
Do you know how long the battery lasts if you have say 3 5 gallon buckets. Will it be enough to do a whole car on one battery for wheels, rinse whole car, prewash, rinse, then rinse again after a hand wash? I know they make bigger batteries that are compatible but im hoping to be able to do a whole car with one battery. Whether that’s a 9a or the 40v with an upgraded battery
You could do a whole car with at least a 6AH 18 volt with the wash you describe. If you are looking for longevity I would suggest the 40v version of this and run a 4AH battery.
VERY INFORMATIVE! Wish you were able to test their FLEX WAND HOSE which really seems very useful since only moving nozzle/head and not the pump/hose/bottle. I think I'm going to have to get the mega kit with 4ah battery which I DO NOT NEED (!) LOL I want ALL the attachments.
Yeah, it wasn’t available when I bout this at least not at the Home Depot I was at. I always tell myself I never need a new battery. Then yesterday happens as I’m running a drill, grinder, blower, sander and shop/vac. Went through a couple batteries with the grinder and next thing I knew I was waiting for a battery to charge. 🤣 I hate swapping batteries around which I do sure could have.
@@CarsWithKeav a few days ago in the Home Depot clearance rack, they had Ryobi a special offer 4ah & 6ah High Performance batter combo for $70. (!) I have way too many batteries but I HAD to buy it. I'm 71 and I give out before the battery, I'd rather get a deal on a 2ah comb but I do have the lowly 13" 18v lawn mower (and have been eyeing up the 16" brushless that takes 2 batteries (!) haha)
Some serious versatility ✅
Agreed
Is the foam cannon / bottle that you show in the video, compatible with the 320 psi power washer? I bought that "other" bottle and I get the feeling that it does not fit 100% onto the 600 psi version.
It should be compatible. RY120350 is the 320 psi, but since it la half the PSI it might not dispense soap foam as well.
This is on the Home Depot website for it.
“Compatible with all RYOBI EZClean Power Cleaners (RY120350, RY120352K, RY121850, RY121852K, RY124050, RY124052K)”
Hey Keav, I'm looking for a pressure washer like this for washing my wheels as I mostly wash the rest with rinsless, but BMW wheels man.. I dont have ceramic pads on it yet and it dusts like CRAZY! Just wondering, is this your favorite electric pressure washer? Or can you recommend something else? A great vid 4 sure, as most of them ⚡️
This is a great portable solution and actually works really well for rinseless as it can siphon the Rinseless and spray on the surface. Giving you good pressure to knock off some accumulated dirt as well.
@@CarsWithKeav Thank you so much Keav, your knowledge in this matter is next to none, keep doing this amazing work, i will binge watch some more of your previous ones ;)
@@victoryensured7137 thanks so much!
Great video! I have one and love it. Would you spray a sealant with the chemical attachments, do you think it would clog anything up?
I think it would be fine just clean out with some DI water when done. That should be a normal practice for anything shooting a chemical.
@@CarsWithKeav got it, thanks!
Where did you get the gallon jug?
It was chemical bottle of some sort that I saved. You can get empty gallon jugs on Amazon. amzn.to/3X0n7wG
Great video and review ,I use the worx one for winter Rinseless washes.
Thanks
for some reason, i can buy the mist kit but it doesn't come with the 40 degree nozzle, in fact is seems as if I cant buy that on it's own in the UK. is there any way I can attach a 40 degree or higher nozzle on this pressure washer, is it a universal attachment for the ryobi EZ clean?
There is currently no attachment that lets you run other nozzles. I wish there was though Ryobi even has a part number for it for at least a year, but never sold it.
@@CarsWithKeav are all attachments universal so could i use any other branded 40 degree nozzle or does the Ryobi have a unique connector ?
@ This is a unique connector, but there is a way to use any I show in this video. ua-cam.com/video/OykqeqCYnmw/v-deo.htmlsi=U7qE9mV0yOd5ygKV
Like the spray tips. The “foam cannon” is crazy expensive for what it is. Thx for review.
Compared to what you get from a normal pressure washer yes it’s expensive, but anything battery operated and portable is going to be higher. Plus when they engineer them to where you have you seen all their accessories it gets even more expensive. That’s why I use Ryobi as the Dewalt and other brands are even more expensive.
One 5 gallon bucket of water, 6ah battery, zero tip, lowest setting.... You could easily detail an entire car
That’s for the info and agree you could do easily. My problem is I like to do extra with everything so I probably need 15 gallons. 🤣
I always use way more water than I should. Bad habit but I can't help it.
How do you think this would work with a rinseless setup?
@@jblaze725 This would work great in my opinion. I only do rinse less washes on my car. So I haven’t use my Ryobi 1600 pressure washer in a long time. With this unit you could pre spray a car and then do your contact wash with your rinse less solution. No dragging out a pressure washer and using the customer water source. I’m actually considering it.
The pressure that strong for detailing a car?
I'm getting one thanks to you. I'm being sucked into their ecosystem.
You are now one of us and can never leave. 🤣 Hope you enjoy it!
Wondering how the pump life will be when multiple chemicals are used going thru it. Would be nice to have a downstream option. Thoughts?
The foamer is kind of a downstream option, but biggest issue using this as a chemical sprayer is figuring out dilutions. So much water mixing with the chemicals.
Spray daddy is back with another video 🥵
You know it!
I have the ez clean 600 and a decent amount of accessories.
Seeing that chemical spray nozzle kit has me wanting that for applying rinseless Wash pretreat rather than pumping my iK multi 😭
I have the pressure washer nozzle upgrades which I’ve used to pretreat ONR on the panel but I feel like the chemical nozzles would do better as to not waste product.
Thanks for the video!
I was surprised at how well it does. Very versatile. I think chemical spraying is it’s best quality.
THIS!!!
How can I attach my foam canon that is not from the ryobi brand?
Not that I know of and I have tried everything. Hopefully somebody makes an adapter.
what if we dont use foam cannon and instead fill bucket with car wash to spray foam and then use another bucket of water to rinse, will that get the job done
If you spray car soap diluted in a bucket it will be very bubbly I would think. Will have to try and find out. It would still be lubrication so that’s still good.
Like your expression at 09:38 “not bad” but don’t think it’s worth the money but to each their own depending on how you use it.
It’s not bad as a portable solution if you really need it. Not something most would need.
You can remove the adapter at the end of the rod and attach a 1/8 female to 1/4 male MIP adapter. Your can then attach a 1/4 quick connect adapter on it. Total cost less than $12
Yup, this is the way! Thanks for the info I might make a video on this at some point.
Why isnt the foam as thick as shaving cream?
@@Gin81593 Because the foam cannon they made is not very good and 600 psi with 1gpm is not enough to agitate soap to that kind of thickness. I am working on video to hack this to allow you to use normal connections and use real good foam cannons to get better foam.
Excellent video on the Ryobi. Is that the newest Ryobi sprayer? How's the noise level?
This is the newest one for 18+. There is an even newer one that uses the 40v.
@@CarsWithKeav how's noise level?
Anyone know where/if we can buy those attachments for 25° etc. here in the UK? Can’t seem to find anywhere. Thanks.
Hopefully somebody in the comments will know.
Good video and detailed explanation.
Thank you 🙏
you think you can use ONR in the gallon for rinse wash?
I used it for insecticide the other day with a backpack tank so I would say no issue just make sure to run clean water through it when done. Distilled or DI water of you have it.
good product. i uses the 320 psi version to water my plants and shrubs
They work great don’t they?
I thought it was funny that this guy is wearing an Obsessed Garage shirt, the wash set-up, the Swisstrax flooring, and then he said "stouter". Obviously a super-fan of Matt Moreman.
He may have been one of the first UA-camrs I watched when it came to garage stuff, but not really into his content the last few years I have gone my own path. I actually just like the looks of the shirt. Swisstrax are awesome so that’s why I got them all the race shops near Road Atlanta had them so I got to see them up close plus Swisstrax is made right down the street from me. Matt would call my setup trash as 95% of it is from Amazon and all my design. I built it for less than a Kranzle costs. Thanks for assuming though I think it’s kind of ironic a super fan would even be holding a Ryobi trash contraption. 🤣🤣🤣
Keav>Obsessed.
@@jblaze725 Thank you 🙏
But can it repeat
I just bought one and don't nearly see the pressure you seem to have. Could be the indoor setting as opposed to outdoors. It's does wash the car completely. I use 3/4 full 5 gal bucket with second 1/2 full 5 gal bucket. I think I could do two cars not in direct sun light, foam dries very fast. You need to keep misting car. With two people this isn't an issue as they rinse right behind you.
Direct sunlight is no fun everything wants to dry so fast and you constantly have to wet it. It could just be an illusion with the camera. I would expect them all to have the same pressure.
Nice vid now I know I might as well try a cheaper Chinese version
Just make sure to research good. There are some crappy China versions out there. I have tried many and very few can come close to this Ryobi.
@CarsWithKeav ya , I might as well save and get a better one now that I have seen some reviews
@@yeettis it’s tough to sift through the crap that’s out there. Ryobi did drop the price it’s $159 with battery now. There is a full set at $199 that has a lot of the accessory I show in the video. $99 tool only version now as well.
7:15 ...I have a foam cannon that I've been pretty disappointed with. I even got a smaller orifice for it. Still disappointing. I swear to you, if I go outside and turning that damn dial to the - side makes better foam...
Those turn knobs are just plain useless if you want thick foam all the time. I just turn all the way in one direction and whichever give me more foam is the way I go which 99% of the time is full clockwise.
Fill a bucket with no grit guard with a 2gallons of distilled water, add your 1oz of rinseless, fill a 32 oz trigger bottle, mist on with the Ryobi and chemical nozzle, and you still have 224oz for your wash.
Great idea! I’m just not a fan of a full rinseless since it require a contact to dry. I rinse off and use a blower so I have little contact as possible. I just use it as a pre wash for lubricity on the first rinse.
@@CarsWithKeav I suppose even after a rinseless Wash, you could use a spray coat type product and then rinse / blow/ only towel the drips.
Thank you for this video. Now I know what chemical tip to get. 👍🏻
You’re welcome
This looks perfect for applying Iron remover, thanks for the review
I was surprised it sprayed it so well.
Good review. LOL at the water gun fights
The kid in me will never leave. 🤣
Why mine doesn’t click to the 3in1 nozzle without the wand? Anyone has same issue?
There has to be something defective in that. I just tried mine and it goes in just right. Sorry it isn’t working for you. It has warranty might be able to see if they can replace it.
New subscriber here. Good job.
Thank You!
For those who perform rinseless wash in their garage 👌
Very good for that.
It would be good for you since you do a lot of car meets. Fill a couple 5 gallon jugs of DI water from your house to take with you to car meets.
It’s good for that. Also people up North doing rinselsss washes in the winter. I found it quite useable to clean my showers in the house as well.
@CarsWithKeav I use it on the shower, too. Well, I let my son use it to the clean the shower.
I use one of these to take showers when the power is out.
That is a great way to use this!
Looks like a nice tool to me
It has been a great tool so far all’s round the house and traveling.

I love Ryobi tools and am fully vested in them. But I am not impressed by that washer.
Compared to a regular washer I have the same opinion, but it has it’s place. Just not for everybody that is for sure.
lol I'll stick with the traditional pressure washer.
I would in 99% of all scenarios as well.
I’ll stick with my Fanttik sprayer.
Nothing wrong with that.
Sorry Ryobi, let's throw in the towel and stick to yard equipment lol. The gallon attachment is obviously safer, it's neat but good for mobile detailers tag teaming a single car for faster cleaning while the team lead uses the pressure washer, like a boss.
It’s has its purpose if you travel like me. Going to experiment with it as a chemical sprayer.
Very nice but you need atleast 1000 psi to clean a car correctly.
You can wash a car with a garden hose. The contact wash is where the car gets clean not the rinsing and spraying.
@CarsWithKeav lol. Do you understand the reason people use a pressure washer instead of a regular hose? There's a purpose. And many professionals including myself say that you need around 900 yo 1200 psi to do a correct job if you are going to use a pressure washer. If not then why not just use a hose like you said? Have a great day.
@@scottmcbride2237 Pressure washers are mainly used for efficiency as it’s a quicker process when time is money in detailing. I love using pressure washers my channel is built around them and I think as well 1k PSI is the sweet spot, but that is about what is safe for the paint not the best cleaning pressure. Think what you want to think, but making things easier does not mean you can’t clean as good with a garden hose it will just take longer. One exception being caked on mud most likely. Good day to you as well.
The plastic breaks. It is a weak point of the tool. It has not been addressed or improved. If u look at a lot of reviews that is the main reason the tool is rated poorly. I went to look at it to see for myself wanting buy it. it is cheap and flimsy. Even on your test u can see how flimsy it is. It appears that the more on off cycles the faster it will break. It appears it is not a matter of If, its more of when it will break. from all reviews and looking at it it will be sooner than later.
@@njackson18 Mine is still going strong and use it all the time. I know many who are using theirs in a car washing business constantly especially in the winter and working great. I would not attach a 2 liter bottle to it that’s for sure. Using a siphon hose and a one gallon bottle is the way to go. Mine has a metal base for the quick connection so not sure about any flimsy plastic except for the bottle connection which you can get metal connections for that as well. There are two models of this and the cheaper one is for sure flimsy maybe that’s the one you got? If you did get the exact one I got maybe there was a manufacturing change? The bottle connections are plastic and flimsy, but ai don’t use them.
Good to know as i have not bought any yet but want to. I will check out the one you have.
To much hassle . I rather use a pump sprayer
If just for spraying chemicals for sure. As a portable pressure is where it serves a purpose.
COMPLETE GARBAGE - this tool wont even run 15mins on the 4aH battery. It overheats and shuts down, you probably need a 12aH battery to even think about washing a vehicle.
That’s weird I took this on a car show trip to Orlando and was able to do an entire wash without issue pretty easily on a 4AH battery. I have used to spray insecticide all around my house and last much longer than 15 minutes.
1 car wash brings the battery down 1 to 2 bars. Does great on the battery.
Not the greatest for the money. Crappy foam. Don't understand what Ryobi doesn't understand about using a smaller orifice on their foam cannon!
All the manufacturers seem to use the same type of foamer. They all suck. 😂
Doesn't show us the bits we want to see. Seems useless and sponsored.
Sponsored by me and my wallet. What bits did you want to see? I can’t read every bodies minds on what they want to see. I showed every accessory and how they work.
Fake
Yeah, it’s all CGI. 🤣
U can hook up to direct water hose Use 11/16 wrench on flat spots on nipple end of gun. Remove fitting. & attach brass quick disconnect fitting set up
For sure you can and I bet it gets even better pressure being fed water instead of priming it.
the quick connect is not proprietary, it uses the Gardenia brand connectors which are widely available.
Yes, for the bottom connection for the bottles and water input it is the usual quick connects that you find doesn't even have to Gardenia many copy that style. I was referring to the spray nozzle side being proprietary which there are not others that have that style and no adapters yet to allow conversion to 1/4 quick connects.
This channel deserves more subs 🫡
Really appreciate that.
