Thanks for the update on the quick connects since I noticed in your video you showed 6 of them on the tailgate but I guess you already had 2 installed on the kink free hose. I see now there are 8 in the pack. Great video! I wanted an easy way to clean our new boat and I HATE using our gas power pressure washer and hose that will just loop up and kink if I stare at it long enough. Man great content. Liked and subbed!
Also, some friendly advice for someone wanting to use their pressure to make money:
Put in whatever tip you wanna use and give it a pull. Then spray at the ground for a second or two.
This just ensures the tip is locked in. The last thing you wanna do is be expecting to get paid to detail a car and then having to replace a window or get a dent pulled and painted.
Great tip! No pun intended
I do it all the time just me. I did it to my old car and learned quick before detailing other people. Btw wearing flip flops don’t aim it at your foot you won’t have a fun time
@@AutoHeadzdid u keep the 1.25 or switch it for the 1.1 oriface
@@nickhardner6691 I switched to the 1.1
@@AutoHeadz ok
Purchased a majority of this setup a year ago and it has made detailing way more enjoyable!
That’s great to hear. Such a nice setup!
Great video. Every single thing I despise about pressure washing is resolved by the upgrades you mentioned. Quick connects, flexible hose, swiveling gun, I need all these upgrades!
Wow! What a great comment!
Thank you for this video! I was looking for this same setup and same equipment. This helped a ton!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching it
Such a nice and easy video for people starting with pressure washers and stuff. I’ll be getting this setup since I already checked online everything you suggested. Thanks a lot for this!
Thank you so much for the great comment. I think so too. 😃
I’m trying to win an Amazon competition this month. If you use the links I provided in the 1st comment or video description when you decide to purchase I’d really appreciate the help.
Thanks again for watching man. ✌🏻
The most DETAILED video I have seen on UA-cam!!! Literally step by step!!!! I appreciate it bro, AWESOME VIDEO!!!!
I appreciate that!
@@AutoHeadzhow about if your vehicle is ceramic coated & which is recommended? Thanks!
@timothyizzett4984 Yes. I use a ceramic coating twice a year and I also use it on new parts I order like headlights, taillights and new wheels. I like this stuff - amzn.to/49U0wHn
Best instructional videos in the business!
Great detailed step by step video ! Thank you man ! 🫂🫶
Hahah! Thank you! I really appreciate that! 🙏🏻
Thanks for the demo and info, have a great day
My pleasure man! Thank you so much for checking it out. I appreciate you.
You’re the man! I was looking for a better way with my existing Ryobi power washer as opposed to investing in a newer option. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
You are welcome!
thank you so much. im truly grateful for this video. i just ordered the pressure washer, the quick connects, the foam cannon, the hose and the swivel gun.
Awesome man! You will love the setup. Let me know how you like it after you get it all going. Happy detailing!
Thanks for the video. Saw the mass plates. Looking at getting the mjjc cannon. I have a sun joe pressure washer do you know what model i need to connect to that. I purchased the quick connects you linker in video. Im assuming the 1/4 inch connect mjjc will do?
YES!! My Ryobi is still holding strong for over 6yrs. The first 3yrs, I ran in it with hard water and didn't maintain it at all. For the price, its worth it.
It’s an absolute steal! Love it!
At 2:47 it appears you wrap the teflon tape counterclockwise. It should be wrapped clockwise so it will not bunch up when you screw in the fitting. Moreover if there is a rubber grommet/washer, you do not typically need teflon tape. In any case, thanks for the video and the useful tips.
Yes, thank you, I am aware of this and noticed the mistake after recording. Good eye! Lol
I like using Teflon to help prevent brass corrosion which inevitably will cause leaks.
wow thank you for that tip i prolly wouldve kept applying that stuff wrong rest of my life
Yea I noticed that too !!!
Looked for this comment😂
@@geeznzeez9464technically the knob used to tighten it down spins counterclockwise but…..yes UA-cam comment section rules all. Lol
Fantastic video. Thank you for putting it together. ROCK ON!!!!
Wow! Thank you very much for saying that! 🙌🏻🔥
Its interesting to see that Ryobi is just rebranding a pressure washer, just like westinghouse has done. I got the westinghouse one a few years ago and I really like it. Ill be doing these upgrade for sure. Thanks for the video.
Hey! Thank you so much for the video!! I’ve been thinking about getting a Uberflex for my Karcher and you’ve just sold me on it!
Glad I could help!
Awesome video man, just starting to get into this pressure washer/foam cannon stuff and you just gave me my setup man, amazing step by step informative video❤️
My pleasure brother. This is an absolutely sweet setup. Did you get the stuff yet? Let me know how it works out?
@@AutoHeadzAfter using this setup a couple times on my truck, it makes washing it a breeze and enjoyable, such a great setup at an affordable price too.
@@driddick80Such a great little kit. It’s therapy for me at this point lol.
Thanks for the heads up on this royobi pressure washer. It worked great for the first use. I just brought it yesterday. I also brought the quick connect kit, along with the short nozzle.
No problem man. I kind of feel bad. The price has gone up a bit since I first purchased mine. They are constantly selling out everywhere. Fantastic deal still though.
@@AutoHeadzI think you linked Amazon for the pressure washer but HD still has it for $99.
Thx for info been looking for pressure washers
Your welcome man. Thanks for checking out the video.
Thanks a million for this demonstration and very detailed parts descriptions! Your awesome!!!
Your awesome! Thanks!!
This is the exact setup I needed! I bought everything you suggested!
That’s awesome. Enjoy it! Did you put it together and use it yet?
Thanks so much great video and appreciate all the tips and links! I’ll be ordering soon.
Oh man, my absolute pleasure. I’m so glad people found this video so helpful. Take care. Happy detailing!!
Great content. I’m gonna copy this exact setup. Thanks!
That’s awesome enjoy it! Once you get it all set up let me know how you like it.
Thank you. I always give a thumbs-up & comment on videos that are almost at the level of public service, which this is!
So nice of you to say! Having a set up like this is such a game changer. What other content would you enjoy seeing?
🙏🏽 I was just about to get rid of this one but you just saved it I got to go pick all that up
Oh man it’s a game changer. Let me know how you like the upgrades.
That set up rocks, THANK YOU!
The video you shot was with that pressure washer 1.2 GPM? Also was that the stock orifice that came with the Canon? Or did you change It to what size?
Great video thanks
After watching this video i bought everything from this setup, the best setup i had thank you 💯
Great to hear!
Glad I found this video. I have the same pressure washer and I absolutely hate the hose it came with
Thank you checking it out. My next video is a detailed review of the top 4 highest reviewed hoses on amazon.
Glad I ran across this. I bought my own house recently and picked up that same Ryobi pressure washer and hated the hose / wand it comes with especially using my foam cannon. Gonna pick up all these attachments and you made my search super easy.
I’m glad you found the video helpful! How are you liking your setup?
@@AutoHeadz It's been way nice! Only thing I gotta figure out is a reel for the pressure washer hose since winding it up by hand sucks. Other than that it takes me 5 minutes to get going!
I'll probably upgrade to an active pressure washer for more water output for my big truck. It likes to dry before I fully get finished hand washing if it's a sunny day. But having everything on quick connects makes life so much better.
@@BlueSharkRidesGood man. Well stay tuned. My review of the Active 2.3 will be out next week! 🔥
Thank you for information good job brother
Thank you so much for saying that. I really do appreciate it. 🙏🏻
This is the exact set up I have but I have a mtm sgs35 acqualine I love that thing
What a perfect setup. I haven’t tried that out yet. I’ll have to look into it. Thanks for checking the video out, I really appreciate it.
Thank you bruh. I appreciated the video and bought everything through your links.
🙏🏻 Thank you so much for the great comment. I very much appreciate you. Have a great day man.
Tks! Just bought a used ryobi pressure washer $60 and will buy the rest of the stuff from your video post. Thanks so much for making this video.
Thank you so much for saying this! Love hearing this. Enjoy the setup 🙏🏻
@@AutoHeadz ur welcome. Videos like this are very helpful and save people a lot of time when you share your experience on what works and what doesn’t.👍👍
Got the same pressure washer a few years ago, it’s a beast for sure!
It’s amazing!
Can you use to clean sidewalks or is it not powerful enough
@@nics8040
Depends on what degree nozzle you use but, yes it can clean a sidewalk.
@@nics8040 Absolutely. It’s surprisingly powerful for the size.
You should look at the "AVA" brand pressure washers if you can get them over there. They come with most of these upgrades as standard and have a 10 year warranty... Fantastic machines 😃
Great video just what I was looking for 🙏
Great to hear!
Fantastic tutorial!
Thank you!
Pretty much same setup but I'm using the RidgeWasher foam cannon. Its the sleeper of the foam cannons. I was fed up with all these crap foam cannons and was about to cough up the dough for an MJCC but on a whim decided to try one more cheap cannon. This Ridgewasher is putting out that thick foam from the Ryobi pressure washer all for only $20 and comes with a nice quality wash mit as well.
I also couple that factory hose that comes with the Ryobi to the Uberflex hose which give me a total of 75ft of hose. This allows me to leave the Ryobi in the garage with the door shut without having to sacrifice any length of the 50ft Uberflex. This virtually makes that high pitch sound of an electric pressure washer completely silent. Totally makes the car wash process much more therapeutic.
That’s an awesome setup. I do the same
thing. I leave the pressure washer in the garage and yes it’s so nice not hearing that thing going lol.
I'd recommending 3d nanopail super soap would be the best for new detailers. you can order them with a 3/4oz pump and only 1 pump is needed for a full 32oz foam cannon makes it so easy! Also that ryobi PW is always $50 for black friday
Wow thank you! I’ll definitely try that out.
Buying this exact setup based on your recommendation (using your links of course). Will report back. Thanks for putting this together.
Awesome, thank you!
Great video, thank you!
My pleasure man. I appreciate you saying that. I got more stuff that I think you will like coming soon. Keep in touch.
This video was invaluable in creating my own setup in my garage. I made a video with it on my channel, so thank you for this.
Just watched it. Very nice setup. Glad I could help!
Nice setup. I am using a Sun Joe 2250psi but with the same hose, love the flexibility and extra length. The gun looks really good and think I will have to order one.
Thank you! The gun is fantastic, especially for the price.
@@AutoHeadz My gun doesnt have a swivel, but the quick connect fitting lets it turn some. Not smooth like that gun. Do you know of a fitting I could buy separately?
love it that's how i started
Thanks man!
Enjoy your videos, some great tips and products you are recommending!
Thanks a lot man I got a bunch of really great detailing videos with some of the best new products coming out soon! Thank you for the great comment and kind words.
Will these upgrades work with the Harbor Freight Portland pressure washer?
Very helpful thank you
Love the video, good work!
Thank you!
Thanks for the recommendations & detailed reviews! I have the 1600 PSI version of the Ryobi (got a great deal on it) but the gun/hose that comes with it isn't the best. The upgrades you mention aren't exactly inexpensive now but I might slowly upgrade it over time. I can see the benefit in the quick connects, hose & gun. I could probably save some money with a shorter hose.
You are welcome!
Yeah, I see the prices go up and down week to week. The quick connects are a MUST in my opinion. Uber flex hose is probably the next must have. Thanks for the great comment.
Thanks a lot that was useful 🤙
My pleasure. Thanks for the great comment. Have fun 🤙🏻
REALLY APPRECIATE THIS VIDEO THANK YOU
I appreciate you checking it out. Hope you had a nice weekend.
I have a Sun joe pressure washer I have to use an adapter for my Uber flex hose a m22-15 to m22-14 adapter do u think I’ll still be able to use quick connects
What is your mixture of soap to water in your foam cannon...Thx..
I got the electric pressure washer for Homedepot for about 140 bucks last year and I upgraded the hose that I got from Amazon for 35 bucks and I enjoyed watching my car way better ✌🏽
Isn’t it crazy how a little upgrade can make such a big difference?
@@AutoHeadz 👊🏼
Just look at it
I bought that mckilians gun love it
Yeah man. It’s a beast. Big fan.
What's great about the upgrades each piece can be purchased one at a time or all at once depending on one's finances.
Absolutely
I have the same kit and it's awesome that you did literally EVERYTHING the same. Flexzilla hose with quick releases - foam canon etc. What's your solution for the power cord? That's the one thing I dislike about it - the onboard storage strap is awful
Thank you for this video.!! I’ve been looking for this type of video regarding supplies and that they won’t kill your wallet.. Thx!
My pleasure! You can’t beat this setup for the price. Happy detailing!
Hi im from the uk and we have different types of hoses is there a adapter that can convert it to uk hose?
Im 14 and about to buy this setup for my carwashing business thank you!!!
Awesome man. You are going to kill it! You are a hustler! Work hard, be professional and you can make just as much as anyone else. Keep me posted on your success!!!
@@AutoHeadz Thank you sir, I was wondering what a good budget extension cord would be for this setup (for the powerwasher)
@@wombatsrest6107Hello, what is the extension cord for?
i just bought everything in this video except for the power washer & its amazing. really changes the experience of washing cars.
Isn’t it great?! Hard to beat for the price. I have a bunch of great content I will be sharing soon. Stay tuned!
@@AutoHeadz i've been washing cars for a while week & the experience is truly magnificent. just night & day difference compared to using stock stuff. i'm looking forward to buying a 3mm orifice nozzles
@jettangeles2707 that’s awesome man. It really makes washing your car a whole new experience. Enjoy!!!
Any suggestions or testing done with different nozzle heads at different orfice size. It seems like it's really hard to find other nozzle heads with same nozzle siz 15017
Does this pressure washer work on 220v electricity?

How about karcher k2 power vps or k2 420 ?
How would this set up work using a water tank vs a water hose and water source set up?
I have similar pressure washer. Will try new hose
Best of luck. That Uberflex is an absolute game changer! Have a good weekend man, thanks for watching.
Bought the hose you recommended, just wondering if you have any suggestions regarding a hose reel suitable for this exact hose
This will my next video. I am in the middle of testing as we speak.
What head nozzle size attachments would you get for this?
What swivel gun to uber hose connector do i need?
Quick connects are hands down the best upgrade. Literally every upgrade is optional, but having quick connects changes power washing from an annoyance to a hobby
Lol! Well said! I have become obsessed. It’s therapy at this point honestly.
Have the same setup but the shorter uberflex and mine is red haha. Oh and the Ryobi 2000psi is what I have. I LOVE my setup too and I would wash my car every day if I could haha.
Love it man. I can definitely relate.
Great video l got this Robyi for Father’s Day what type of orifice nozzle tip do I need for safe car washing. Thanks
Thank you!
I use a 25 (green tip) or a 40 (white tip) here is a link for the pack - amzn.to/3XmXaHA
Appreciate the content provide,keep it coming.
Thank you! I absolutely will.
Sweet setup. Hace you tried the Fierce Jet hose instead of the uberflex?
No I haven’t, should I?
@@AutoHeadz Saw them at a few commercial car washes and then bought both the 1 wire and 2 wire versions. My guys are impressed
Nice! I’ll have to try it out
+1 on the quick connects. The stock Ryobi screws are an absolute pain in the ass. It will rust and it will be a pain. Mine became impossible to remove and the hose was just permanently part of the washer.
Thanks for the heads up. What screws are you talking about?
I think he means the m22 threads coming off machine that hooks to factory hose. I bought an Uber flex & snapped my pump trying to get mine off lol. I’m looking at this small ryobi 1800 or the active 2.0 for my replacement
I use this video Links to build my wall mounted pressure washer setup with the same pressure washer. Everything's been great. Surprisingly, the only failure point was the uberflex
Wow! That’s the first I’ve heard of one failing. What happened?
@@AutoHeadz it swelled up and burst by connection point. I Did have it on a hose reel. just ordered a flexzilla hopefully it gives me better results on my hose reel
Wow! Keep me posted on what you find. I’m interested to see if it’s any better. Good luck man. Thanks for the great comment.
Purchased yesterday, my first electric pressure washer, super happy, the noise level is perfect, coming from gas power and it does the job, now with your recommendations, the Ryobi is on Steroids 😂 thanks for your excellent review and quality.
lol! It’s amazing what some quality accessories will do. Enjoy it!
Man I wish this ryobi unit was available in Australia, we only have the akward stand up models with wheels.
You can’t get it on Amazon?
Does the Uber flex hose come with quick connects or did you use the ones that came with the kit?
Negative. I used the one that came with the kit for the Uberflex.
What do you recommend/ use for interior cleaning? Great video bro. About to purchase some of these products
Thanks man!! Interior cleaning I like VRP
Would this setup be ok for matt paint? Thanks for a great video!
Thank you. Yes. The soap is PH neutral. Just be gentle with washing. Nice plush mitt if making contact with paint.
Great video. However, i should add that the quick connects are made of brass and the fittings for the hose look like they're aluminum. Bad idea as it will corrode once water is introduced. Better to get aluminum fittings for the hose.
Brass has worked fine for many yrs , it won’t be pretty sure, but I’ve had them forever, still got one from the 1990’s ,just changed the rubber rings..salt water tears them up,for sure, but if you clean and rinse it they are normally fine..I’ve seen both have issues too..
Awesome setup! Any brushes/scrubbers and drying supplies you recommend?
Thank you! This is the stuff that I currently use. All amazing stuff. Hope this helps.

Very helpful, thank you! The quick connects will be a game changer for me. Thank you!
Thank you! They are so nice to have.
How do you use a pressure washer if you’re doing someone’s car say at work where there’s no water outlet for the hose?
I like your video, coincidentally I also enjoy reviewing high pressure car washing machines👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you! Nice man.
I recently got the same set up. I was having problems with the garden hose quick connects not fitting right and leaking. Even when dry fitting the two together, it feels like there is too much wiggle in there. Maybe I have faulty ones, not sure. Reviews look good
U get the twinkle brand?
@@AutoHeadz yup. Same exact kit you had there. I’ll have to recheck the connection
You don’t need Teflon for those quick connects. The rubber gasket and o-rings will prevent leaks.
Thank you. I have very hard water. I think it helps with corrosion on the fittings over time.
Wish I could show you my setup.. im using the exact same home depot pressure washer.. with a small short gun similar to yours.. but my ryobi pressure washer is now a wall setup. That mean i don't have to carry it and deal with 20 cords on the ground,, no more cord management.. because I added a wall reel and bought a 50’ flex hose to feed the reel.. now when i detail a car i just pull the hose.. do my stuff.. washing, foaming, rinsing and retract it back.. the only cord on the ground is the hose … nothing else.i also have a second reel for the garden hose next to it just in case i need the garden hose. And i added a reel for the air…. So my wall has 3 reels.. garden hose, pressure washer hose, air pressure. Oh i almost forgot , the electric reel.. that i use when doing DA compound around the car. So four reel on the wall.. and all my stuff are cheap stuff… nothing commercial grade except maybe my ghibli as5 vacuum.. haven't figured how to put the vacuum hose on a reel yet.. as for the ryobi pressure washer.. it does the job just fine for detailing cars
Wow! Sounds incredible!
I'm about to follow this set up but a bit concerned about some of the reviews on the Twinkle quick connects. Some of the reviews says this part is poorly manufactured and failed, shooting the hose 15 feet almost damaging the car. Another review said these only lasted a few usages until they strip, leaked and failed. Should I trust this product? Are there better quick connects? What's your experience with it so far? Thanks
Iv bought several of these twinkle brand kits and never had any issues at all. I’m willing to bet that the very few people that have issues are most likely not using the correct fittings for their pressure washer setup.
I bought the suggested quick connect kit and it will not fit my HF Bauer pressure washer hose. Is there not a std size for the hoses? The Bauer male end is larger than the female quick connect. I figure the std hose would work fine with the swivel stubby gun.
You may need a 22-15
Most PW’s take a 22-14 but some may need the 15
Hey what is your water to soap ratio for the foam cannon? Thanks
I fill the reservoir with about 30 oz of water and then add 6oz of soap.
Use HOT water and the soap will mix perfectly giving you a great foam. Enjoy!
Great vid but I wouldn’t recommend anyone get the MJJC S series because the Pro 3.0 is right around the corner
What size orfice are you using on your 40 degree spray nozzle tip? I will be using my system in connection with a CR Spotless filter system.
2.5 Orifice. I think I put the link in the description. Very pleased with the performance.
@@AutoHeadz Thanks
you forgot a step bro
@5:35 make sure you cover the car wash liquid bottle thoroughly with foam
just kidding
awesome content
2:12 I didnt know Ryobi has no brass o/p pipe, this seems some copper/aluminum alloy with a brass coating low quality!!!! also at home we use the PW once or twice a week so it is always better to remove all water from the pump after any wash job. There is only one problem with the QC/QD fitted at o/p pipe side that all water wont go out of the M22 pipe because of the M22-15 QC/QD.
So for home use its better to disconnect the QC/QD adapter from the PW and do a 2 second dry run so all water get out. You do this small thing and your PW will live longer
Nice truck
Thanks 👍
Just got this KIT last weekend and set up. Perfect for home 🚗 wash 🧼. Recommend 👊👌
Awesome man! Perfect timing. About to be car washing season.🤙🏻
Dilution ratio for the StickySnowball x SV3 foam cannon combo?
I do 34oz of HOT water and 4-6oz of foam soap. My favorite is stick snowball. This stuff 👉🏻amzn.to/46B4NhG
