[@EPICWILDETAILING]

I agree with you. Takes 50pumps to get all the pressure up. That’s the only Con i can think of so far. The Pros are: good for engine bay cleaning and wheel cleaning.

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

A battery powered one would be way better. I’ve been using it mostly for wheels and I like it overall.

[@treverbickmore476]

I have one… really wanna upgrade to IK pro12 foamer for your air compressor fill up nozzle

[@moneyparhar]

I have bought ik foamer 2.0 year ago. To get more or longer foam try to fill halfway. More air in bottle will give u foam for longer time. I use for wheels diluted brake buster 1.5

[@lewispham2828]

100% agree with you. It takes 4 sets of 30 pumps to cover my bike completely. Feels like I need to do a gym session for cleaning my bike. Other than that, it's ok.

[@Autofusionchannel]

Great review I have always been on the fence on whether or not to purchase this product .

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

I use this pretty much everytime I clean wheels now. My biggest problem with it is that its doesn't spray for too long before needing to get pumped up again. Other than that, its a fantastic product.

[@Autofusionchannel]

@@TheCarDetailingChannel I finally bought one lol

[@kevg2539]

@@Autofusionchannel how is it

[@Autofusionchannel]

@@kevg2539 I love it I found spraying it in spurts helps the air last alittle longer .

[@GenX.Bigfoot]

Good review. Thanks. Mine is coming Sunday. Using for wheels and engine.

[@noelsaw]

I bought one and then another one because I love it.

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

Nice! I like mine so far. I use it multiple times a week. Thinking about getting another one. One for wheels, one for paint.

[@peemick]

thanks for that review. Very thorough. I was thinking about getting one of these, but its still between this and the marolex foamer, exactly for wheel shampooing. I recently bought a Kwazar mercury pro sprayer. These are great as they are double action and have a great feel i hand. If you've got grip issues maybe look into a few of these.

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

The Marolex foamer has its advantages as well from what I've seen online; a bit more expensive but larger capacity. Both are probably great in their own way.

[@EireFirst2024]

I really don't think the coverage is bad at all on this, it's so small, light .. The foam is great,it's hoseless ( if that's a word 🤔) cheap too.. I'll be mainly using it for wheels, so I can't say fairer than that 👍

[@sidneyeaston6927]

Put a bike valve on it and use your compressor or foot pump easier than using the pump that is on the top.

[@om3973]

I mean I watched vids show what to do to drill a hole and put shreder valve in I have done on cheap home dempo regular sprayers works great I dont wanna risk it on thos thing maybe I will plastic seems firm enough

[@kona328WH]

Nice review. Can I use something like megs gold glass shampoo in this? Will it foam up?

[@gzus07]

I bought one today for 20$ brand new

[@jclongshaw655]

Have you had to change out the filter? If so, how often?

[@NeverFadeAway2077]

I just got this about a few days Your video is really helpful to me Thank you so much for share Dude

[@NITEOWL22LR]

When pumping are u supposed to have the handle lock on for it to click when its fully pressurised?

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

The pressure valve will pop up indicating full pressure whether the lock is on or not

[@Langor]

Btw i found it on sale (in canada) and picked it up today!

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

That’s awesome. I might get another one

[@Langor]

@@TheCarDetailingChannel pro detailing supplies is the shop... They also ship if you're not in the greater Toronto area.

[@oterosocram25]

Can I use this with non-foaming agents?

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

Yes you can but the foamer will still try to foam the chemical. For non foaming chemicals, there are way cheaper sprayers out there

[@om3973]

To bad got 9 months ago I got mine a like year change they made a new one you can use a air pump on it has valve on it

[@_Tra_B]

Can we use this product for a pressurized rinse?

[@EyeRavage]

what was the soap used for the wheels ?

[@joelpasserell4525]

Is there a mixing chart somewhere that tells what ratio to use for what type of cleaner or spray or tire cleaner, onr, etc.? I'm new to detailing and I'm always amazed when I hear detailers saying mix this 4 to 1, mix this 8 to 1. How do you guys know what to mix what to what ratio. And if I have a tire cleaner in a hand spray bottle from Walmart, can I dump it in this and spray as is or will that need diluted? Nice job on the video.

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

Most chemicals that are meant to be diluted will have a recommended dilution ratio somewhere on the bottle. For me personally, I just simply experiment and try out different ratios to see how they perform.

[@kunhimohamed6348]

How much price ഓഫ് this???

[@GenX.Bigfoot]

35 dollars American

[@richscott2483]

IK products are made cheap and do not last. Get a half-gallon or one gallon container and modify it with compressed air fitting, a compressed air shutoff valve, and attached to a Spray Wand. Put solution into container, pressurize container to 20 to 25 psi, turn on valve and bingo.

[@ral8031]

😀👍

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

Thank you for watching

[@codyfrancis4474]

So you'll have to pump it full about 10 times so 10 x 50 pumps is 500pumps per car lol no thanks

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

The biggest downside by far

[@koston3647]

I just used it for the first time, I think I was just being a wuss and not pumping enough, gotta retry

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

I’ve gotten used to pumping this up all the time but I still wish this was battery powered

[@brightonmoto2146]

Wow this thing actually looks terrible, how are people saying they look good? Each to their own i guess..

[@yukonstriker1703]

As a Detailer I hear you on carpal tunnel due to years of 'spray triggers' They should be banned LOL

[@thecamarogarage]

I love mine but I have tried various tests and could NEVER see any type of difference whatsoever with the 3 soap induction adapters.. I was using the green one which is said to be the dry, thickest.. But then while doing my own review, I could not visually see any difference with the Grey (Intermediate) and the Orange (Wet).. So I donno

[@fraserduthie5853]

Just bought one for my bike, seems decent. For your information 2.5 Bar comes to 36.2594psi and 1 Bar = 14.5038psi

[@frankcastle5294]

Just bought mine a few days ago and best thing I've ever gotten for car washing.

[@marlon9683]

I like your old school washer 👍👍 also the review on the form spryer 😊

[@Spirited282]

Thanks for the review. I have a new car and while automatic washes here are good i prefer hand washing. The wand washes out here are not the greatest as they do not foam much. I placed a order at carzilla last week for this sprayer but thinking it will be very time consuming on my SUV, lol. At least I can use my own soap though :)

[@robsx4280]

Appreciate the video as mine arrived today. Thank you - made in Spain by the way.

[@ildxnnyli5541]

I'm new to detailing, would this be worth while be getting for doing wheels and engine bays? Or is this something I should keep for buying down the line

[@RunItUpWithOmeezy]

Really helps you safe product on the wheels because the foam gives you playing time , just bought mine today regret not buying it earlier 😅

[@CG-zm9oj]

Good thorough review. I was on the fence till now. Thanks :)

[@Weyco23]

Nice review. Loving that vintage Kenmore dryer!

[@404notfound.....]

Fantastic informative video!👍

Hey, bro. Your tire pressure is not keeping up with the IK FOAM PRO 2 pressure..

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

😂😂

[@WilliamVG]

The best thing going for this is the schrader valve. No 50 pumps for me.:)

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

I still have mod mine. In the mean time, my right tricep is getting jacked 😅

[@augaureliusserious]

Orange tip it is

[@reneborromeo9472]

Other than the car, I use it for household cleaning and love it. Thanks for your review.

Great review

Thank you Mike!

[@Blackntanxguy]

Can I leave my chemical fluids in there after use? Or do I need to drain it out after use?

[@richardb.7134]

Does it have a big enough capacity to foam a whole SUV?

[@donschultz7759]

Orange or Green tip. Which one would be used for car seats?

[@jojolebleu9364]

Get this man a compressor

[@mke6653]

Great video, I just bought one. Thanks.

[@aztekcayt7945]

Great review !!

[@edwardkhamkhay4450]

Which color tip do you think is most effective for wheel and tire cleaning ?

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

I use the standard grey tip that comes installed from the factory.
