Does this foam truly get the same effect as a rub down??

thats hard to believe .. I think if the coach has a light dusting maybe ..

but after driving in the rain type of dirty.. I would be skeptical...

the cr spotless rinse is a must ... and that I know works...

I received a soap gun with my Harbor Freight pressure washer and I keep forgetting to try it. Thank to this post I will hook it up next time.

Speaking of rub down washers, I just purchased the "new" at Walmart red color Microfiber wash pad and really like it. I used my extension poll, but I like the way it swivels to get into tight spaces.

I have a chemical guys foam cannon and they work fantastic

The shampoo (soap) dissolves and loosens the dirt which greatly reduces scrubbing. There were areas of my coach that I didn't scrub and it seemed to work. They claim that typical road dirt will just fall off, Time will tell.

My son had originally bought a less expensive unit for himself but it didn't work as well. He now has one like they bought for me.

When you are done foaming and start rinsing, how much foam is left? Just wondering if you have a river of foam to deal with. It would be okay here at home but maybe not if you are doing it in a resort that allows coach washing.

Surprisingly the foam rinsed off mine pretty fast and dissolved but I'm sure on a solid surface like a concrete pad, there would be a river of foam.

I'm going to buy a cheep electric pressure washer that has the right exchangeable tips so I can use the foam cannon on the road. I already carry the reverse osmosis water with me for rinsing.

I bought the ryobi 1600psi electric 1.2 gallons per minute. Weighs about 10 Lbs. easy to store. Has enough power to clean the coach

How much soap does it take to do the whole coach? Basically, how many rv washes will you get out of a gallon?

That river of foam is what I am concerned about in a resort. I would hate to have everyone walking past give us the evil eye

for making the place look like a hot-tub party gone wild..! Especially if the drain was a dozen sites to the left or right from us.

Definitely getting one for the S&B parking spot though..!

I found the Chemical Guys EQP 312 and a gallon of soap on ebay for under $70, lots cheaper than their website or amazon.

It produces a good bit of foam and a gallon lasts a long time. I bought two gallons last year and use it for the toy hauler, vehicles, and the rzr. I still have over a gallon left. Here is a pic of the foam...this is after letting it sit for a few minutes.
