    Where from & how much Jas?

    Will be a better alternative to getting the Karcher out everytime.

            Just so you know they guys on the detailing forum did one of these and most of them found it to be quite lacking. Recently they got similar ones that are designed to attach to the pressure washer and they work much better.

            I have personally used the foam master and was not very impressed

                No probs.

                You will get more from a pressure washer and no foam gun than you will from a foam gun and no pressure washer if that makes sense

                  makes perfect sense to me.

                    Bunnings have a little foam gun attachment for the Karcher pressure washers at around $20. Works great too.

                      That's what I'm using at the moment. Guess I'll just stick to that.

                          I think a Karcher is better too..

                          While I haven't used one of those foam guns, I've seen video's and stuff of them all and to be honest you'll get better from the Karcher almost every time, provided you use good foamy shampoo.

                          I use the duragloss car wash to wash my car and autoglym powermax 3 for pre-detail 'washes' and they both foam up really nicely. Best thing about it is you really don't need much stuff in the attachment either; I use less than what I would for a handwash.

                          As I said to Jasn earlier online...a foam gun only shoots foam, while a Karcher is good for many things. For the difference of like, a case of beer, I believe getting the Karcher is the better idea.

                              Mate when I was in supercheap today, I saw my model for 179. It'd be cheaper at bunnings.
