teamcrossworks Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Mook, You recently did a write-up for a RX8 (very nice) and I believe used a combination of Adam's shampoo and waterless wash in the foam cannon. Can you tell us the ratio and a comparison of this vs. just the shampoo? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Vink70 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I just never get a good foam or get it to stick to the paint with my foam gun. Runs right off because of the wax and quick sealant. Even on setting E it just doesnt seem to produce some GOOD sticky foam. I put 4 oz in the container, fill the rest with water, swirl it to mix it up. I just must not be getting my mixture right. You said to shake it? are you shaking it to make suds in the container or just mixing the water and shampoo to make a concentrate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tony97gt Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I added some ww in my mixture yesterday and didn't notice much of a difference. My foam doesn't get that foamy but I'm using a gilmour hose foamer. I mean it suds up and serves its purpose, but the foam cannon is a whole different animal from the pics I've seen.

0 Vink70 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Gotcha, didnt know if there was some secret way or not. Not sure if im wasting product by using the foam gun then or not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you are. I mean, you are adding a layer of lubricated protection to the surface by foaming, pre-buckets. Mook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 ScottyBoy Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I wonder if this recipe will work in the new Adams foam guns. THE Mook and Ricky Bobby 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ricky Bobby Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I always add rinseless to my hose foam gun. 2 oz of Rinseless, 3-4 oz of soap, "shake like the dickens" as Mook says, and go to town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mook,
You recently did a write-up for a RX8 (very nice) and I believe used a combination of Adam's shampoo and waterless wash in the foam cannon. Can you tell us the ratio and a comparison of this vs. just the shampoo?
