    Ok, to be clearer, I wish I had a cart to wheel out of my garage with all my detailing stuff on it.

    Right now I'm using an electric pressure washer I bought from Walmart for $75.

    It's 1,500psi Hypertough model.

    Using a generic foam cannon that I picked up on Amazon for $15.

    The supplied hose sucked....short and would kink if you looked at it wrong. Added a "kink-free" longer hose (Amazon) for $25.


    I'm getting decent suds, but not like they do on the Chemical Guys videos.

    A stronger unit would likely yield much more foam. Looking back at it....after buying the hose....I could have simply bought a better pressure washer that came with what I needed for just a tad more $$$. I was in a hurry and wanted to get up an running that day, though.

    For the quick washes, I've been hitting my cars with the foam cannon, letting it sit for 5-10 minutes and then rinsing down with the 15 degree tip on the pressure washer.

    It's yielded some really good results very quickly.

    The Chemical Guys V07 soap has been great. Leaves a nice shine and zero waterspots regardless if I dry the car or not.
