The SPTA is perfect for someone who lives in an apartment building where the really don’t have access to a constant water supply. This and a cordless water pressure sprayer with self contained water tank will do the trick.
I've been using the Solo sprayer for about a month now and love it. I have found more and more applications i like to use it for, so much so i have 4 of them. Iron remover, waterless wash pre spray for rinseless wash and rubber/plastic/vinyl cleaner are my favorite uses so far
Excellent, I just purchased one and used it with my DIY detail rinseless . went around the car to prespray with rinesless. and did my usual rinseless with my bucket and sponge. after I was done I put away my battery operated 2 gallon sprayer and my marolex pump sprayer. this one liter solo sprayer was plenty to soak my entire Toyota camry. quick, easy and convenient.
Very cool. If I were to buy a foam sprayer like the IK pro 2 that is $35-40m I probably would not hesitate to spend an extra $20-25 and get the battery unit. The the incremental cost the convenience of not having to hand pump seems to be well worth it if you're just using this for personal use and not all day professional work where the battery would never last long enough.
Awesome idea about the sprayers.truly understand time Equates 2 money in all businesses. Stuff like this is needed 4 new detailers.most kids today don't like manual labor..
I have already used a couple of diffrent products from SPTA. Apart from one quality issue (that was actually resolved by SPTA reps) - their product line is pretty solid in my opinion.
Not a fan of the Solo sprayers, purchased 12, they didn’t even last a month. Some didn’t last a couple days. They are fun when you first use them but the necks give out.
They upgraded the sprayer not long ago, but for some reason made it the Solo 260. It seems to spray a little better than what you were showing. But supposedly the upgrade was mostly about making it more durable.
I am a huge fan of rinseless washing and these would definitely come in very handy, especially not having to constantly squeeze the trigger. The SPTA, while yes it's expensive seems to be a pretty good value actually because of the larger tank if you need more liquid product. Plus the fact you can change between the tips for foaming or regular stream of liquid makes it more useful than the SOLO. I do like the fact the SOLO is smaller though and could be a great sprayer for interior liquids. Both of them look like good unit's and each of them have their place in detailing for sure. Thanks for the review Pan, hope you are well buddy. 😀✌
I have done this by attaching a tyre valve on a standard foam sprayer being pressurized by a Xiaomi gadget air pump. Very helpful and on a fraction of the cost. A bit weird to the eye though :) and Pan, I've seen that the pressure built is okish for one big panel but it needs some seconds to wait again to build pressure before going to the next. The hood for example when you start it's thick but as the pressure drops the foam is lighter. You'll have to step back for about 10-20 sec and spray the rest. With my set up I see on the pump meter that the pressure drops significantly faster and the pump cannot cop with it unless you wait for a while. Thanks for the review! Great as always.
solo 460 is awesome Pan best tool for pretreating the rinsless wash, i dunk it in the rinsless bucket to fill it up and fully spray( pre treat) the car under a minute it's so easy and awesome tool i hope it last for a year though
I am using this battery foaming sprayer over a year. It is good to use on the pre-wash process. Be ware that this sprayer not water proof, if water go into the charging port or the hole under the bottle, it will damage the battery and circuit.
I personally like Wùrth pump sprayers, they just work and work well for years. Battery operated devices need charging and faffing around with and will eventually stop working. But if you like it, go for it! I'm happy with Wùrth 🙌
I love the convenience of the Solo sprayer for something like a waterless wash in areas like door jambs when a pump sprayer would be too much effort. Call me crazy but I actually don't mind a bit of a work out pumping up and staying fit for my lady using the IK Foam Pro 2! Honestly Pan, I get better Brakebuster foam results than what I observed from the SPTA. For volume, the Marolex Industry Ergo 3000 is a powerhouse for rinse less washes.
Sir Pan very much obliged After a month it would not mist no more. I only use N914. So I checked cleaned the metal ball filter with warm water but still it won’t work to mist. I ended up removing the ball and until now mists very well. Stay blessed 🫡🙏
WOW!! Pan I can't say thank you enough for all that you do. Trying out these new products and equipment for us to see. Really using your own money for all of this. Then using them giving us your opinion is absolutely fantastic and so nice of you to do for us. After seeing this I would say the SPTA is by far the better buy if you only can get one, since it does have 2 nozzles to cover everything you might want to spray. Also I agree with you nothing beats a foam cannon, but is a good alternative.
The SPTA needs a weighted straw like the Solo model. Amazon in the USA has the white model and wondering if the orange model has any improvements. The reviews on Amazon USA are so so. I just got the Solo and think about using it with my favorite glass cleaner Sonax.
I really enjoyed this video as I have a similar sprayer from CSW. I currently have ONR in mine because pre spraying before doing a rinseless wash is really easy. Plus whenever I need to spot wash the sprayer is ready to work. Thank you for taking the time to make this video!
I just bought a SPTA cordless pump sprayer from Amazon here in the US. It was $75.99 USD minus a $20 coupon for all. $55.99 USD total and it's getting delivered today! Thanks Pan!
This vid brings up a topic you might want to look into, Pan. When I spray my wheels & tires with Brake Buster either in an iK Foamer (5:1), or a Foam Cannon/Pressure Washer (undilutes), my tires DO NOT "brown" when scrubbing with a Tuff Shine brush! When I spray them with Brake Buster straight out of the bottle sprayer or from an iK Sprayer (no dilution), my tires will drip and scrub brown. I think that foaming Brake Buster, it gets too diluted to do a proper cleaning. What do you think? I have a Solo Sprayer for my Drying Aid (3D Bead It Up) and love the atomization and adjustable sprayer! I just got another Solo sprayer for Brake Buster. It'll be undiluted. Just easier than an iK Sprayer.
Diluting any product makes it less effective that’s a given. If tires are really dirty, use Brake Buster straight undiluted. If it’s just a regular maintenance cleaning, using it diluted is fine and also more economical.
Hi Mirana. Welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on UA-cam as we surpassed 815,000 subscribers and 100 million views! I have been detailing for 25 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers. You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing.
I like the Solo, but mine has a fatal flaw. After I've sprayed it (on a wheel, for example), I have to unscrew the top to get it to properly pressurize before I spray the next wheel. In other words, it's unable to keep a constant pressurized state. I definitely do not have this same problem with my Car Supplies Warehouse Electric Sprayer.
I was just about to go purchase the SPTA one but seeing a ton of negative reviews on Amazon about leaking, not pressurizing, and battery failure. I usually take the reviews with a grain of salt but there are a lot saying the same things
Great video👌🏻 imho I think it definitely has it uses, I’d do wheel cleaner, bug n tar remover, iron remover and just label all 3 for their particular uses 🤷🏼♂️ ( glass cleaner is a good one👍🏻 )
Pan, I have to say the production quality your team puts out is first class. Certainly first in class of the detailing channels. If I am honest I thought these electric sprayers were a bit of a solution looking for a problem. Although, were I to have arthritis in my hands, which I know some do, I would probably fall on them like manna from Heaven. And, the ability to generate foam in a small package will be great for condo and apartment dwellers. I am able to use a pressure washer and foam cannon now though, so I would not have a use for the SPTA. LOL, I know you know me to be frugal, I use two 56oz HDX pump sprayers that cost me $8 each at Home Depot for my wheel/tyre cleaner and spray wax/drying aid so you are probably asking the wrong man about a $75 electric sprayer :-) Doesn't mean I didn't enjoy the video though. Thanks again.
Thanks! I appreciate the positive feedback about the quality of my videos. I do everything solo. From filming to editing. ;) Welcome to my channel.

I have been detailing for 25 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers. You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing.
These are $60 now compared with $38 for the IK Foam Pro 2. I could definitely be convinced to not have to pump the pressure constantly for an extra $22. Seems like a reasonable price for that convenience.
Great to save on Carpel Tunnel issues! Also you mentioned duties! Do you know what duties (% or $) and the duty code that these fall under Pan? Being in Canada like you, I wonder why NAFTA or Free Trade does not apply to these products from the USA?
Pan, thanks for the content. Would you be able to evaluate SPTA's cordless polisher. it's very affordable and I am loving it so far. Thanks again for the great content.
For the SPTA, It’s probably best to do the wheels and tires first then refill to cover the body, correct? It doesn’t look like it holds a lot. As a mobile substitute for a cannon it’s seems reasonable.
These seem really good pan I also think a thicker foam is achieved due to the foam not being formed with a continuous pressure of water hence dilution.All the very best 👍🏻🏴👍🏻🏴👍🏻🏴
I can definitely see this being more efficient than having to pump up a sprayer and easier on the hands. But versus a marolex it doesn't have the pressure. I like where this is headed! I think I may buy one, I can definitely see it if you don't have a hose for a shampoo like you said pan. Excellent video
The other plus of the foaming would be that you don't get splatter on everything around the car like I do with my pressure washer foam cannon! I'm very excited about the SOLO unit and the price I will be trying one of those. I've been doing this for 40 yrs and while I've had carpal tunnel on both hands I deal with arthritis, and I have a parkinsons like neurological disease attacking my left side and these would be heaven sent! Thanks! Let get more of these on market you brands out there watching!
I'll stick to my good old Marolex and IK sprayers. great quality and I don't mind pumping lol. Amazon stopped selling the SPTA due to a lot of returns. it seems like a QC and other issues. but as usual a well delivered info !!
Great review Pan! I personally think battery powered sparyers are still in their early stages, but they will develop over time and become more budget friendly to consumers as well.
Nice I have the carbon collective battery pump same thing different color to be honest. From my understanding you only want to use pH neutral products the plastic is real sensitive apparently.
I got the SPTA few months back. Quality is there but It never pressurized. I let the pump run for 10mn. I got it replaced. The new unit had same problem. Ended up returning it. Also it’s very heavy.
I recently checked out Griot's Battery Powered Foam Sprayer at another YT channel and from what was shown, it's not User Friendly at all (too many adjustments) and is not worth $130. Other than that, great review on the SPTA and I just ordered one from Amazon for a total of $70.60 USD.

I think many will enjoy these solutions. By reading through comments, those with arthritis or other syndromes that can impair hand movement will appreciate these. And these are just first gen units. I’m sure they’ll improve even more over time.
I got the yellow marlox one. Works great but after 2-3 months started leaking from the pump. Looks like the rubber that holds pressure inside started breaking down.
Three improvements would be battery indicator, USB C input not proprietary, and finally a removable lithium ion battery. I just ordered a couple, the 460 is very hard to find in stock anywhere. If this was used with a spray wax of some sort would it potentially clog? Im assuming you would need to rinse it with water or an IPA and then water after wax to clean it before storage?
I never rely on Amazon reviews. I like to test for myself. For a first generation battery powered sprayers they’re actually decent. Not ever having to pump is actually great.
Hi pan I have both of them but my is not from spta instead carbon collection and the solo I use when I do a rinseless wash because in my area hose pipe ban. Both are great items and make washing the car alot easier and quicker 5 star video.
All I want to know is the distance of throw? I am looking for which sprayer can get highest in the trees. Do you have any listing of specs on each one and the distance they reach???
Many Amazon reviews on the SPTA are that it works great the first few times of use but then develops multiple issues. Dang, I thought it was too good to be true.
Solo sprayer is trash. Owned 3 and started to leak and fail to hold pressure within 6 months. Purchased sureshot and its been 4 months and couldn't be happier
Great video, Pan. I just put one of the SPTA sprayers in my shopping cart at Amazon, with your link. This will work great for me, as I use P & S Brake cleaner to do my wheels and tires. Keep up the great work.
i use most of the time the marolex foamer, but dont know how long de spta will go on, mine was dead after a month, hopefully you come back with the spta in a while when you ised it more often
Interesting that the OG version of the Solo has an all aluminum looking button while the Amazon version is all plastic. Would you know if it was improved for OG?
Awesome video Pan those spray bottles is wonderful the SPTA is a bomb and the color is beautiful I love it lol 😆 the solo is a great bottle and the weight is good for over those hoods and car roof less pressure for the shoulder haha 🤣 Pan buying those 2 bottles is a win win for PPF window tint and detailing you name it and the prices is great Pan I really enjoyed that that video new thing’s every week for us you is a leader Pan everybody have to follow the boss much love ❤️ enjoy your afternoon buddy 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌💪💪💯💯💯💯💯🙏🙏🙏🙏
can you use the spta with just water in it? i never see anyone use them as portable pressure washers. i want to use it to derail an engine bay / rinse it
Hey pan great video! Can you give me more feedback on that rinse-less solution you had on the solo? Also the SPTA one looks like it can be very handy and worth the money ! Will definitely be saving some money to get my hands on one !
Not sure if they'll have a foaming option or not (hoping they will) but Milwaukee announced a range of sprayers on their M12 battery platform, last month.
Pan, thank you for this brand new to me info! I'm wondering about the Solo 460 on Amazon. It shows a plastic trigger button while the one you show and the one from Obsessed has the stainless trigger button. Are there 2 versions of these? As always, thank you.
i like the solo, , great weight to work with , trigger seems Great ! still on the expensive side of things, would have to last a long time to justify such expense.$$$ as always, Pan's Video are in a class of their own! ;-)
Great video Pan I’ve got the Marolex electric sprayer which is great but very expensive but I’ll be reviewing a battery powered one soon from BigBoi if the build quality is as good as there pressure washer then I’m looking forward to seeing it in action 👍🏻👍🏻
Great video yet again Pan 💪💪 off topic but i just got my hands on Gyeon CanCoat Evo Pro! So excited about it. Just wanted to know how to maintain it. I have koch chemie So o2, quick detailers, Carpro reload and Elixir available so far. I got all the shampoos and everything else i need. Gyeon products are not available at the moment.
What?! I have been uploading videos on UA-cam since 2016 and have never skipped a single week of uploads. I upload videos twice weekly. Saturdays and Wednesdays, always at 9am EST. Did you turn on the notifications?
Hello, Pan , i live in Montreal and love your videos. I was wondering is there any chance that if you can ceramic coat my electric mercedes. I love my car and its hard to find real professionals like you in the area. Thank you.
Thanks Ivan! Is your Benz brand new? At the moment, I only offer one package, and it’s the total interior/exterior new car prep for brand new cars delivered less than a month ago from the dealership.

@@PanTheOrganizerYes its brand new. I took it from the dealer 3 weeks ago. I will definitively go with your inside/outside package. My car is mercedes eqs 580 and its gray on outside and beige on the interior. How to make an appointment with you?
I found that the Solo loses it's effectiveness after 60 seconds straight spraying. It seems to start spitting. To get around that issue I have to open the bottle and decompress the pressure. I tend to do that often. I have two of them with the same issue. Is that something common? Is there no intake valve to relieve the internal pressure?

Which sprayer would you recommend??
Best is the ik foam pro 2 + with a battery tire pump attached, works like a charm. I use it at a self serve as you can’t take a foam cannon
Or buy the IK pro 2 (none +) then add a schreader valve for $3 and then your tire pump. 😉
The SPTA is perfect for someone who lives in an apartment building where the really don’t have access to a constant water supply. This and a cordless water pressure sprayer with self contained water tank will do the trick.
I've been using the Solo sprayer for about a month now and love it. I have found more and more applications i like to use it for, so much so i have 4 of them. Iron remover, waterless wash pre spray for rinseless wash and rubber/plastic/vinyl cleaner are my favorite uses so far
ive been using these battery powered foam and sprayer since its painstaking to keep spraying with arthritis hand. It really helps.

Mine been going strong for awhile now
I have only 1liter manual Solo 401.
I used 20days/month, from 3 years for interior detailing/upholstery cleaning... absolute no problem!
I have OLD Solo pump units that I use daily. Never a problem. Sounds like maybe your doing something incorrectly?
You bought twelve battery powered sprayers?

probably takes longer to build up pressure as the container empties. Still beats hand pumping though.
@@johndoe6032 true and true. You have to carefully adjust the applying speed so that it can build up pressure.

I just got me a 20v Bauer 1 gallon sprayer from Harbor Freight for $40 (battery not included) and am using it for the ONR and it is very impressive

Thanks for the review. Those look like they will do the job. I hate cords so would really like these...
Pretty decent for first gen battery sprayers.
Seems like an added benefit of the small one compared to normal small ones is less leaking
1:10 brake buster foamed up great!!! I usually do 1:5 in my ik foam pro 2
Any reason you water down break buster if it’s a ready to use product when buying?
I bought some of their orange microfiber towels on Amazon, and they are so thick and plush you could use them for a bathmat…lol

LOL, I know you know me to be frugal, I use two 56oz HDX pump sprayers that cost me $8 each at Home Depot for my wheel/tyre cleaner and spray wax/drying aid so you are probably asking the wrong man about a $75 electric sprayer :-) Doesn't mean I didn't enjoy the video though. Thanks again.
Thanks! I appreciate the positive feedback about the quality of my videos. I do everything solo. From filming to editing. ;)

These are $60 now compared with $38 for the IK Foam Pro 2. I could definitely be convinced to not have to pump the pressure constantly for an extra $22. Seems like a reasonable price for that convenience.
I think we all have been waiting for these.
How awesome you are.
Thanks Pan
Thanks for watching!
Great to save on Carpel Tunnel issues! Also you mentioned duties! Do you know what duties (% or $) and the duty code that these fall under Pan? Being in Canada like you, I wonder why NAFTA or Free Trade does not apply to these products from the USA?
They are not made in the USA. NAFTA only applies to products made in USA, Canada and Mexico.
Some nice kit and they don't seem that expensive since they are battery powered.
Pan, thanks for the content. Would you be able to evaluate SPTA's cordless polisher. it's very affordable and I am loving it so far.
Thanks again for the great content.
Thanks!
For the SPTA, It’s probably best to do the wheels and tires first then refill to cover the body, correct? It doesn’t look like it holds a lot. As a mobile substitute for a cannon it’s seems reasonable.
It holds a lot of soap. It easily foams a midsize sedan.
These seem really good pan I also think a thicker foam is achieved due to the foam not being formed with a continuous pressure of water hence dilution.All the very best 👍🏻🏴👍🏻🏴👍🏻🏴
👍🏻
I can definitely see this being more efficient than having to pump up a sprayer and easier on the hands. But versus a marolex it doesn't have the pressure. I like where this is headed! I think I may buy one, I can definitely see it if you don't have a hose for a shampoo like you said pan. Excellent video
Thanks!
I prefer to support products on this side of the world, but interesting products anyway, I'm sure the competition will grow if these seem worth it.
Yup
The other plus of the foaming would be that you don't get splatter on everything around the car like I do with my pressure washer foam cannon! I'm very excited about the SOLO unit and the price I will be trying one of those. I've been doing this for 40 yrs and while I've had carpal tunnel on both hands I deal with arthritis, and I have a parkinsons like neurological disease attacking my left side and these would be heaven sent! Thanks! Let get more of these on market you brands out there watching!
Yeah I hope many other brands will watch and come up with even better versions.
I'll stick to my good old Marolex and IK sprayers. great quality and I don't mind pumping lol. Amazon stopped selling the SPTA due to a lot of returns. it seems like a QC and other issues. but as usual a well delivered info !!
Thanks!
Works amazing for just a battery powered snow foamer!
Did you try one?
Did you try one?
Great review Pan! I personally think battery powered sparyers are still in their early stages, but they will develop over time and become more budget friendly to consumers as well.
I agree
I have been using the solo sprayer on the IK bottle
Oh good idea!
Both look like great sprayers. The concept is great too! I hadn't seen the SPTA one before. Thanks for sharing 👍!
😁👍🏻
Nice I have the carbon collective battery pump same thing different color to be honest. From my understanding you only want to use pH neutral products the plastic is real sensitive apparently.
The white sprayer you could use as an iron remover sprayer maybe?
I got the SPTA few months back. Quality is there but It never pressurized. I let the pump run for 10mn. I got it replaced. The new unit had same problem. Ended up returning it. Also it’s very heavy.
I bought 8 and all broke within a month
@@DETAILSofficial Jezz 🙄 hope you were still in the return period !
I recently checked out Griot's Battery Powered Foam Sprayer at another YT channel and from what was shown, it's not User Friendly at all (too many adjustments) and is not worth $130.
Other than that, great review on the SPTA and I just ordered one from Amazon for a total of $70.60 USD.

Seems like a scenario where you're searching for a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Pan is awesome though. Very thorough and professional.
I think many will enjoy these solutions. By reading through comments, those with arthritis or other syndromes that can impair hand movement will appreciate these.
And these are just first gen units. I’m sure they’ll improve even more over time.
I got the yellow marlox one. Works great but after 2-3 months started leaking from the pump. Looks like the rubber that holds pressure inside started breaking down.
Nice video and very informative👌. Hopefully, a review for SPTA & 3D cordless polishers soon.
Thanks!
Three improvements would be battery indicator, USB C input not proprietary, and finally a removable lithium ion battery. I just ordered a couple, the 460 is very hard to find in stock anywhere. If this was used with a spray wax of some sort would it potentially clog? Im assuming you would need to rinse it with water or an IPA and then water after wax to clean it before storage?
I would for sure thoroughly rinse it with warm water after use. And I agree on the USB-C port.
These are tempting, but as a DIYer, not worth getting rid of my IK foamer or sprayer. Also, the ratings these get on Amazon are less than great.
I never rely on Amazon reviews. I like to test for myself. For a first generation battery powered sprayers they’re actually decent. Not ever having to pump is actually great.
Hi pan I have both of them but my is not from spta instead carbon collection and the solo I use when I do a rinseless wash because in my area hose pipe ban. Both are great items and make washing the car alot easier and quicker 5 star video.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
All I want to know is the distance of throw? I am looking for which sprayer can get highest in the trees. Do you have any listing of specs on each one and the distance they reach???
I will keep using my manual pump sprayers. The new electric versions compared to manual pump are more expensive and in my opinion not as reliable.
Which battery powered sprayers have you tested?
Many Amazon reviews on the SPTA are that it works great the first few times of use but then develops multiple issues. Dang, I thought it was too good to be true.
So far so good for my units. I never rely on Amazon reviews. I prefer testing myself.
Solo sprayer is trash. Owned 3 and started to leak and fail to hold pressure within 6 months. Purchased sureshot and its been 4 months and couldn't be happier
Great video, Pan. I just put one of the SPTA sprayers in my shopping cart at Amazon, with your link. This will work great for me, as I use P & S Brake cleaner to do my wheels and tires. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Stephen!
The Bigboi also have this type Real good quality
i use most of the time the marolex foamer, but dont know how long de spta will go on, mine was dead after a month, hopefully you come back with the spta in a while when you ised it more often
How many jobs can u get out of that approximately.
What is charging time
Thanks!
Interesting that the OG version of the Solo has an all aluminum looking button while the Amazon version is all plastic. Would you know if it was improved for OG?
I bought my Solo and it has a solid metal button like OG's model.
PAN THANK YOU FOR THE KNOWLEDGE ALWAYS ❤️💪🏽
You bet! 👍🏻
Pan, can you provide links to the different soap to use. It lloks like the motor one is different too.
hi i use rinseless for carwashing is there any battery operated sprayer also for that?
Merci beaucoup ❤
pan do you have any suggestions for dog hair from sticking to carpets after cleaning I got the clean down
thanks
bill
heavenly detailing
Nice review pal.... I'll have to take a look myself.
👍🏻 They are headed in the right direction. Not bad for some first generation battery powered sprayers!
Hi Pan is there a video where u reviews the ik foam pro 2 or the previous one ? Thank u
Awesome video Pan those spray bottles is wonderful the SPTA is a bomb and the color is beautiful I love it lol 😆 the solo is a great bottle and the weight is good for over those hoods and car roof less pressure for the shoulder haha 🤣 Pan buying those 2 bottles is a win win for PPF window tint and detailing you name it and the prices is great Pan I really enjoyed that that video new thing’s every week for us you is a leader Pan everybody have to follow the boss much love ❤️ enjoy your afternoon buddy 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌💪💪💯💯💯💯💯🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hahaah thanks Kimo!
Can I use the Adams wheel and tire cleaner in this unit for foaming tires ? And if so, at what ratio?
can you use the spta with just water in it? i never see anyone use them as portable pressure washers. i want to use it to derail an engine bay / rinse it
I use mine for panel prep, works great, what a paaaaaaaaaaaantastic video
👍🏻
Hey pan great video! Can you give me more feedback on that rinse-less solution you had on the solo? Also the SPTA one looks like it can be very handy and worth the money ! Will definitely be saving some money to get my hands on one !
In the Solo, I had the McKee’s N914 Rinseless Wash, diluted 256:1
Pan which battery powered sprayer would you recommend??
Thank you,
Greg
These are the only ones I tested so far.
@@PanTheOrganizer out of the 2 which would You recommend
@@PanTheOrganizer
Which of these two would you recommend??
what is the shampoo that used it with dilution 1 to 10 ?
Not sure if they'll have a foaming option or not (hoping they will) but Milwaukee announced a range of sprayers on their M12 battery platform, last month.
Not everything milwakee is good
Pan is looking slimmer ow ow
Hehe it must have been a while since you saw one of my videos? I lost 30 lbs in the last year.
Pan, thank you for this brand new to me info! I'm wondering about the Solo 460 on Amazon. It shows a plastic trigger button while the one you show and the one from Obsessed has the stainless trigger button. Are there 2 versions of these? As always, thank you.
Not to my knowledge. I ordered mine from Amazon.
i like the solo, , great weight to work with , trigger seems Great ! still on the expensive side of things, would have to last a long time to justify such expense.$$$ as always, Pan's Video are in a class of their own! ;-)
Thank you Dan. I hope you are doing well.
Great video Pan I’ve got the Marolex electric sprayer which is great but very expensive but I’ll be reviewing a battery powered one soon from BigBoi if the build quality is as good as there pressure washer then I’m looking forward to seeing it in action 👍🏻👍🏻
Keep me posted on the Bigboi version!
@@PanTheOrganizer will do Pan 👍🏻
Great video yet again Pan 💪💪 off topic but i just got my hands on Gyeon CanCoat Evo Pro! So excited about it. Just wanted to know how to maintain it. I have koch chemie So o2, quick detailers, Carpro reload and Elixir available so far. I got all the shampoos and everything else i need. Gyeon products are not available at the moment.
All the products you mentioned can be used to maintain coatings.
@@PanTheOrganizer brilliant! Your fan base is growing in Pakistan. We all learn from you Pan 👍👍 keep up the great work. Non like you
Dang I didn’t even know you made videos still your videos haven’t showed in my feed until today
What?! I have been uploading videos on UA-cam since 2016 and have never skipped a single week of uploads. I upload videos twice weekly. Saturdays and Wednesdays, always at 9am EST.
Did you turn on the notifications?
I just got the iK Pro 2... doh! These look cool!
That’s a great sprayer too!
I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot more of this coming soon!🤑
I’m sure many brands are working on their versions.
You should check out the Ryobi ez clean
Hello, Pan , i live in Montreal and love your videos. I was wondering is there any chance that if you can ceramic coat my electric mercedes. I love my car and its hard to find real professionals like you in the area. Thank you.
Thanks Ivan! Is your Benz brand new? At the moment, I only offer one package, and it’s the total interior/exterior new car prep for brand new cars delivered less than a month ago from the dealership.

@@PanTheOrganizerYes its brand new. I took it from the dealer 3 weeks ago. I will definitively go with your inside/outside package. My car is mercedes eqs 580 and its gray on outside and beige on the interior. How to make an appointment with you?
My wife lost the charging cable. Do you know which one I could buy to work? I reached out to Solo twice with no luck.
It’s a particular connector on the bottle side so it won’t be simple. Perhaps bring the bottle in an electronics store and show them.
Could this also be used for a product like Wet and Forget?
I don’t know that product.
I found that the Solo loses it's effectiveness after 60 seconds straight spraying. It seems to start spitting. To get around that issue I have to open the bottle and decompress the pressure. I tend to do that often. I have two of them with the same issue. Is that something common? Is there no intake valve to relieve the internal pressure?
