Garden Hose Foam Cannon vs Pressure Washer Foam Cannon
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- No pressure washer? No worries! You can still get great results from a garden hose foam cannon! In this video I compare both foam cannons side by side. My preference is still the origional pressure washer foam cannon, however you can still get great results for a fraction of the price of an entire pressure washer set up.

I just doubled the amount of soap and got more foam.
Soap ain't cheap though
I’m excited, not bad for a garden hose
I bought the garden hose one and love it,thanks so much great video
Glad to help out!
Thank you! I just had my Camaro ceramic coated & am looking into adding a pressure washer but have been confused as to whether or not I should even invest in a pressure washer. This cleared it up for me. Very helpful
Awesome Glad it helped you out!
Which one did you get?
Exactly the video I was looking for 👍
Glad to help out!
Yo thanks a lot for this video. You help me decide to go ahead and buy a pressure washer and get the foam cannon.
No problem, glad to help!
Since the whole point of doing this is to loosen the dirt clinging to the paint so you can rinse it off then use a MF cloth/mitt to gently remove the remaining dirt, it would seem the foam produced by the garden hose set would be sufficient. Thanks for the demo.
No problem, thanks for the feedback!
Correct. The foam cannon with just a hose is all you need. Foam produced by a pressure washer will not have any different effect on loosening particles.
@@billbigshlong382fr? So I don’t need to spend money ona pressure washer nd can just get the garden hose one for same results?
Exactly what I was looking for
Glad to help!
If your not in a hurry . The water hose one is good . For years i used the buckets too filled up with car soapy water and used a microfiber car mit or one with a pole whatever ya decide, then rinse . I did it as basically as a summer time career and use people's water and water hose . For a few years i used that viking soap nozzle and it work . Not alot of soap that's why i still used that bucket with it . Everything came out great. Its just whatever you prefer to do . Everyone works differently. Just at home cleaners or detailer..
Agreed, everyone has their preferences!
I want to ceramic coat Diana’s 66 Mustang I’ll get with you about it good info on the water I will use a pressure washer looked way more effective
Beautiful foam 😍😍😍
Lol I came here because I was looking for a hose foam cannon to was my GTI with.. in the same color and trim!
Just wondering...
1. What is your garden hose size (1/2", 5/8", 3/4"), and water pressure from the tap?
2. Is it possible to use the pressure washer canon with a garden hose (by using an adaptor)?
3. Also, the difference between the foam outputs for each cannon, might be due to the orifice/hole size and the internal mesh foam maker on the pressure washer cannon.
Water hose was 5/8”, not sure of the pressure, it was pretty good though, hose was screwed directly to the cannon.
Like spraying frosting 🧁. 🤣
Works like a dream
It sure does!
Just the video I was looking for....both good but after a bit more close look I will go for pressure washer for better foam wash etc.
Glad to help!
Can you drop the link of the nozzle that has the connection built in for the foam cannon?
I want one of these for my dads mk6-3 gti’s
Great, thanks.
No problem!
Dang... No free cannon for me. But, still an incredibly informative video to see the comparison. Looking at pressure washer cannons for myself, and it looked like you have the same trigger set up for your washer that I have, so I clicked on this to see what cannon inlet size you used. Now that I have a product to reference, I think I'm on my way to figuring out the best cannon for me. Thanks!
Glad to help!
Nice video, do you mind me asking what dryer you used at the end?
Thank you! It’s the ego 650 cfm leaf blower
Will the results be similar with a smaller electric pressure washer… seems like a lot of effort getting out the gas one.
Yes the electric pressure washers like the cheaper ones at Home Depot or Lowe’s are more than adequate to put out the same foam as a pressure washer in the video did.
Hello curious about something said in the video. You said you used it on number 5 setting for max foam. In another video someone said for max foam you should use on the lowest number. Can you help? Thanks
Hello! I like to use the particular foam cannon on the highest setting to get the most foam, the other person might have had a different foam cannon with different types of settings or they just have a different preference on how much foam they want. In the end, buy a foam cannon and splay with the different settings with different amounts of soap in the container and find out what you like best, there’s really no right or wrong, just more so personal preference. I hope this helps!
Does the pressure washer foam cannon use less soap to coat the car? I think it would.
Thanks for sharing, im wondering is it possible to attach pressure foam cannon to the hose?
It probably won’t work very well, they’re designed for much higher pressures
Very nice. How did you set up your pressure washer in your garage? If you don’t mind me asking. That’s a cool setup.
Thank you! Here’s the link to the video for it, all the links are in the description for the video
@@9NailzGarage I don't see a link.
Excelente video
Thank you!
I guess this website is no longer up.. I just noticed this is 2 years old. I wanted to see what kind of soap is used for foam?
Foam cannon with a pressure, washer, hands down😊
My choice as well!
I have a has Sampson 3000 psi. 2.1 gpm for years. I really dont want to buy another power washer with lower psi. Can I use the 3000 psi with a foam cannon to foam only and rinse with only the hose? I cannot dial down my pressure washer and I know you normally want max 2000 psi. What will happen if I use 3000 psi with foam cannon? Thank you.
When washing a car with either do you scrub the car after applying foam also? Or does the foam break down dirt, grime, and all that which you just rinse off instead ?
The foam does help to break down the dirt, however you will still need to scrub to get everything clean. Some people don’t scrub with the foam cannon but I wouldn’t recommend it
@@9NailzGarage oooooohh ok. I always thought the foam + chemical would break down and take the dirt off. I see now. Thank you so much for this comparison. I'll be using the cannon for multiple uses so...
@@mrbrowz1000101 You can do touchless. But most of the guys still hand agitate (read: mitt wash) with the foam.

9NailzGarage，hello, would you like to review the new MJJC foam cannon pro? Thank you.
I’ll take it and make a review
Yeah pressure washer for sure
Might be a stupid question but would you need the foam cannon if the pressure washer has a bottle connection already I also have the AR pressure cleaner 1800psi system
Is tit the connection that’s at the pump? I believe that’s set up for low pressure soap, might not work as well.
@@9NailzGarage oh ok thanks for the reply
AR blue is one of the best pressure washers out there. But yes, it needs a quality foam cannon like the MTM PF 22.2 to go along with it. In addition to 1800 PSI, the AR has a super high flow rate (2.0 gal/min). That is actually more important than the 1800 PSI when making good foam.
Is that a common method of drying you car using a blower? And do you use a towel before the blower?
Sure is, not much different then the blowers at an automatic car wash
Other than getting the hose connector turned around (watch out for that one), the machine is simple to put together and use ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP . And very nice, too. I'm surprised at the power-it's more than we'll ever need, and we've not even used the most powerful setting yet.I've cleaned off a dirty concrete porch to get it ready for sealing, started to clean siding, and I know this pressure washer will be terrific for cleaning tools this fall.The only issue we had is we had turned around the hose connector, and it leaked. Once it was on correctly, though, we had no problems with the connection. Just remember that the end with the green knob goes towards the hose. It's obvious now what we did wrong, but not necessarily obvious at the time.
Thanks!
Gracias
de nada!
Almost certain that the number 5 setting has more water output and the 0 has almost zero water
Either way, still gets soap on the vehicle.
Does that soap actually work to where u don't have to use a sponge to wash?
It works to an extent, but not near as good as hand washing after the suds are applied
@9NailzGarage Thanks man
there cannot be an accurate comparison as the garden hose puts through much more water per minute than the pressure washer so its much more diluted
The high end pressure washers used for car detailing put out huge flow rates. Many over 2 gal/min. Yet they produce massively thick foam. The one thing any of the detail guys will tell you is the #1 way to ensure poor quality foam is to buy a cheap pressure washer with
Wow, no comparison. How does one get a water supply in their garage for the pressure washer setup like you have?
I ran a garden hose from my outdoor spigot and snaked it through the corner of the garage door opening. It worked very well!
I'm assuming the pressure washer will clean your car using less water but with more energy, plus the cost, storage and eventually maintenance. I live uphill so I'll need a pressure washer regardless, my garden hose doesn't do jack for me.
It’s all just personal preference
Where do you get the garden hose foam cannon?
You can find them on Amazon
Do a comparison with you’re pressure washer and a cheap electric pressure washer
How much PSI is needed in order to get that kind of foam?
The pressure washer in the video is about 1800 psi
If you have a hose, just use more soap or less water for more suds!!!!
That works too!
When it comes to the garden hose foam cannon and this is for the peeps who handwash their cars.. would you rather handwash a entire vehicle or spend $25 to get this foam cannon? Its still gonna need to be handwashed but it applies the soap without you having to by hand which is also more efficiently effective to get alot of suds on it without breaking your back..
Cant afford a pressure washer buy the garden hose cannon.
Got a pressure washer already?
Buy the foam cannon for a pressure washer!
Got mine coming in tomorrow cant wait to use it!!
I have used maguiars cleaner wax paste
Then used ultimate wax paste
I already have armorall’s snow foam soap to hand wash it
Also have the maguiars ultimate wax soap too to give it a spray down and a rinse to maintain my wax coating.
No doubt in my mind this was the best $25 ill ever have spend in my life!
We’ll said!
Is that much suds really necessary
Personal preference
Pressure has more stick on foam
I feel like the garden hose wastes more products? Would U agree ? It just drops on the floor
I personally like the pressure wash foam cannon better, but they both have their purpose
I have a pressure washer & a foam cannon.
I can't get a foamy spray for nothing. What am I doing wrong? Is it because I'm using regular car wash soap?
Might be an issue with the foam cannon, check to make sure there a straw and if there is make sure it’s connected properly and not clogged
@@9NailzGarage I will check it out. Thank you very much for your time & help. Truly appreciated brother 👌
Lots of possible issues. #1 is flow rate. Note sure what pressure washer you have, but flow (gallons/min) is more important than PSI. You then have to choose what orifice size you use in the foam cannon based on the PSI and flow rate of your pressure washer.
Unless you can tell me why it is more benefit (much cleaner for ie) to foam the car beautifully with pressure washer, I don't see why one has to spend more for it.
All just personal preference
Bad comparing when you didn't rinse off the suds from the garden hose
Understandable, I’ll rinse off with the garden hose next time
Hose pipe version any day less water no electricity needed
It’s a great alternative!

I bought the foam cannon pressure washer one and when I hooked up as soon as I squeezed the trigger the thing would just blow apart. Threw it in the trash.
Sorry for your bad experience, many people have good luck with them
YOYOYO That why I always tell people to wear safety glasses when using this sort of apparatus. Not only will these explode and you lose an eye or two but you can also lose a few fingers too!
Foam cannon it is
Why is more foam better?
Everyone has different opinions, mine is more suds helps reduce scratching while washing, they also help soak in and loosen dirt and road grime.

Am I the only one who heard this in Buffalo Bill's voice?
Lol
Never under a damn word he said yet
Many people like quick “to the point” videos, sorry you didn’t enjoy it
No comparison hahahah. Guys I won’t waste my money on a hose foam sprayer thing.
why your camera too HIGH!!!?
Not sure I understand the comment
Not a comparison but the hose still does its job
This is the difference between putting whip cream on your nipple vs sour cream on your nipple 😲
Thanks for the insight
So...ok...
...it wazzes suds onto the car and that's fine. 'Saves a mountain of bending down, soaping up a brush or mitt and bashing it on.
Which is fair enough.
Not the same though is it, and pressure washing is less...touchy feely...scratchy CAR. 😱
I'll pass.
Thanks for posting.
No comparison. Hose pipe is rubbish.
Yea, still a good alternative to those that don’t have a pressure washer though
Well thats not a regular pressure washer. Thanks for nothing
Can’t please everyone I guess
Booooo
Booooo back at ya
@@9NailzGarage boo to all ya all
Could care less about the features. Why do all UA-camRs just blab on. You do realize we watch the video for the performance and review. Thumbs down for useless content. For those interested. Skip to about 3 uselss minutes in.
You need to use a thinner hose (something like Orbit Coil Garden Hose) if you want to get anything close to the shaving cream foam from the foam gun
I’ll give it shot, thanks!
