Sathya Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to the detailing world and I thought I would start fresh by buying AP products. I used to use Chemical Guys but decided to switch over and now I'm here and hope to learn from all the pros. I buy vehicles from the auctions so I do plan on doing everything I can to make all the vehicles nice and clean. I have a few products from AP and I also have the Porter Cable 7424XP. Just ordered the 3 step polishing kit with the pads and I also have the foam cannon. I've never used the foam cannon and I was hoping to get some advice on a nice pressure washer as the one I have is too powerful (Dewalt 4200 PSI). I currently own a Mazda 3 that's never been properly detailed. (Plan on getting a Q50 Red Sport within the next couple months but would like to make the 3 nice and shiny/swirl free) Edited April 4, 2018 by Sathya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMAN024 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Welcome to the forum Sathya. I use a GreenWorks 2200 psi electric pressure washer from Lowes. It works well with the MTM PF22 Foam Cannon, which is equivalent to the Adams Foam Cannon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathya Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 Thank you Oz! How reliable are they? I actually forgot to mention I also have the TORQ Foam Cannon from CG and that is why I have my 4200 PSI pressure washer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMAN024 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I've had mine for over a year now and have had no issues. I just upgraded to an MTM SG-28 high pressure sprayer and I love it. I also grabbed some 1/4" quick connects to make set-up and tear down easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to make sure, is it the SG28 (blue) or the SGS28 (gray)? I looked it up on Amazon and both sprayers show up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The I regularly use the Adams foam Cannon and I love it! I recently bought a new pressure washer from home Depot and it works perfect! I got the 2,000 PSI electric pressure washer and I use the MTM snub nose spreyer attachment also... Very good setup! I highly recommend Adam's Ultra Foam Shampoo... absolutely amazing stuff!! What part of Florida are you from? I'm located in the Daytona Beach area... Edited April 5, 2018 by M3Eric Sathya 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
