Foam cannons

A foam cannon attaches to a pressure washer and covers the vehicle in a thick layer of foam. The foam clings to the panels and softens mud and dust, so more of it rinses off before you start washing by hand. That means less grit dragged across the paint.

Brands

Our foam cannons are from 4WDetail and ALTIQ.

Using a foam cannon

  • Rinse off loose dirt first.
  • Foam the vehicle from the bottom up so the foam doesn't run off the lower panels too soon.
  • Let it sit for a few minutes, but don't let it dry in the sun.
  • Rinse from the top down, then wash as normal.

What you'll also need

Check your pressure washer fitting matches the cannon. If it doesn't, see pressure washer adapters. Use a suitable wash such as 4WD wash in the cannon, and browse the full exterior care range for the rest of your kit.
