    PW/foam cannon users question

    So I've had my new PW and foam cannon for a few weeks and I'm just not getting the amount of foam I'd hoped for. I've played with different dilutions/setting but it's not making that thick shaving cream type foam. I'm currently using a 3300 psi/2.8gpm Ridgid and the Autogeek foam cannon. The...

    A buddy's new F-150 and hack shop save

    A buddy at work just picked up this '07 F-150 Lariat edition with just over 7K on the clock. He isn't the type of guy that really cares about maintenance and cleanliness so when the dealership pitched him "Protex" he pretty much bought right into it since this one application will provide a...
