[@matts9352]

Option 4: Steve, I'd let Steve wash my rig anytime! I start with a foam cannon, then do it by hand to follow. I'm not a fan of pressure washing my suspension because I don't want to force water into the bushings and such, so I either turn the pressure down or just use the garden hose to get the big stuff off before I foam it

[@raymondmcdonald7085]

Hey guys, just my two cents here. Firstly great job on the comparison testing. Here are my opinions on all of it. 1. Pressure washers are fantastic used with knowledge but used incorrectly with the wrong tip they do more long term damage than good. Specifically water and debris get forced into places and cause rust and a myriad of electrical issues. 2. Rotating power brushes are a fantastic idea but they always fail. 3. Foam blasters are very satisfying to look at, makes you think it's really doing something. Must be! Look at all that foam! Meh..4. Turbo nozzles used on anything other than for aggressive stripping are a serious no no. Even though it is a royal PITA there is nothing that replaces intricate well thought out hand detail work. This is all coming to you from a 30 plus year mechanic and power sports enthusiast. Anyway, keep up the good work and sillynous! Love watching you guys and all of your informative shenanigans!

The pressure washer will ONLY draw soap with the LOW PRESSURE soap Nozzle (Usually Black). Your spinning brush has too much pressure to draw from your soap source.

[@scoobee9]

Yeah I've got a mi-T-M washer from Sherwin-Williams and I had to ruin one injector to figure it out. I use dawn & outdoor bleach to powerwash houses and walks. My mistake was not flushing the injector when I was done. There's a ball bearing and a tiny spring inside, that bleach disintegrated the spring. I found out when I was correcting my mistake that the do make high pressure injectors. Your oscillating tip must have been messed up or maybe your washer just doesn't have enough "juice" to make it work properly. The first time I used one on my car I blew the pinstripes off it. Probably best you didn't figure it out. Maybe you just needed to screw down your unloader valve. The "turbo" head is basically a spinning waterjet without the garnett. The other thing is that they should always be started pointed down so that little spinning 0tip inside doesn't slam into the outer shell and ruin it.

The $15 foam cannon from Amazon on a 2500 psi washer with purple power boat cleaning soap does an excellent job. Works best when applied to dry surface. There's different turbo tips for certain PSI washers. I use the $20 black turbo tip Walmart brand. Warning turbo tips on the right washer can cut hoses, wires, and paint if the nozzle gets to close.

Let the foam pull the mud off for a few minutes the use the water hose and spray the rest off.... Simple and fast...

[@jasong712]

You have to hand wash even after using the foam cannon. Period. I don’t know who told you not to hand wash but that’s crazy. Also, get you a real foam cannon. That one you have is too small. I mix 20% soap and 80% hot water. It will usually do my x3 twice before emptying. But you have to have the flow turned all the way down (at least on my cannon) turning the flow both conserves the quantity of the foam and gives you a nice thick foam. Hot water is the key to a clean machine

[@69headwound]

But the guy up above says he just sprays it twice with foam soap and no scrubbing is required? Yeah right

The key to less hands on washing is prepping the surface BEFORE you get it dirty. I’ve tried several products but SC1 is the best by far! The silicone in that stuff causes all dirt to release under regular hose pressure and using the power washer under the fenders to get the tougher stuff. You still have to use some friction in fenders and suspension but not much. No replacing manual labor there...lol.

I've bought an old Hotsy 550ss heated pressure washer for $300. Mine is only 1500psi electric but I crank the diesel fuel fired heater to 200F and it works fanfreakintastic. I actually turn the pressure down to around 900psi and just let the heat do it thing. Mud, grease, bugs, etc peel right off. Being an electric driven pump it's very quiet and as long as you remember drain the water from the heater coil in the winter very durable also. I have a 100' hose and roll the unit just outside my shop (to vent the diesel exhaust) and can reach both of my SxS's while they're still on the trailer. I was talked into it by a friend and doubted I'd like it, now I wouldn't be without it. Landa is another quality heated pressure washer.

[@BarnStangz]

Def. the best way to do it. Hot water or steam is the cats meow for sure! You got a great deal for $300!

[@bajaadventurerider]

The rotating nozzle it's meant for concrete and hard surfaces it can and will peel of paint if you put it close to the paint... As for the foam cannon get a better one bigger capacity and use chemical guys foam soap diluted with warm water.. And the rotating brush you just know that any brush that touches your paint will destroy it over time specially at that speed so it's a big no no... Nothing beats a rinse > foam cannon > two bucket mitt wash > rinse > pressured air dry

[@tayjadster]

Great comparison of some of the different products available. Without these tests, there is no way of knowing what works best without breaking the bank. I work in the livestock industry and have used many different washer attachments and soaps. A common misconception is pressure vs volume of water. A pressure washer that produces over 5 gpm @ 2000 psi will easily outperform one that produces 2 gpm @ 3500 psi. If anyone is in the market to buy a new pressure washer, look for a combination of pressure and volume. The same can be said for the attachments. The turbo nozzle or dirt blaster you purchased was likely rated for higher gpm, which is why it didn't perform very well. The ones we have are never used to wash a vehicle unless you want to peel the paint or be left with awesome swirl marks. And be prepared for a workout.......you wouldn't believe the amount of push they have. As always, keep posting these informative videos. We all appreciate what you're doing.

I pressure-wash the mud off, then I take a pump sprayer with a 50/50 mix of Simple Green and water, and I spray every inch of my machines down, then I let it sit for a couple of minutes and hit them with the pressure washer again and they come out looking new. Well, unless you have scratches of course. But there's no scrubbing needed.

Here's what I use and it works pretty well: 1. Soak with pressure washer and a normal fan tip (whichever degree you want) to knock the big stuff off of it. 2. Use foam cannon with a soap that's formulated to foam using a foam cannon (that's important). Get your air/solution mix correct on the foam cannon and it will be like it's snowing foam and take 2-3 minutes to coat the entire SxS. I use Chemical Guys Tough Mudder soap. 3. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes. 4. Pressure washer with a turbo nozzle. 5. Clean windshield water spots with glass cleaner and a shop towel or microfiber towel. 6. Done if I'm not detailing and know it's getting dirty again soon. OPTIONAL IF DETAILING 7. (If detailing) hit it again with another round of Chemical Guys soap from the foam cannon. 8. Soft bristled brush while it's still soapy to remove dirt/mud spots. 9. Rinse clean with fan tip nozzle using the pressure washer. 10. Tire foam EVERYTHING except the windshield. Literally everything you can hit with the tire foam (except windshield)....do it. Then don't touch it. Don't think about touching it or wiping it off. Let it sit until it's dry in grass or gravel because it will spot your concrete and you'll notice it when the concrete gets wet.

The one I got came with the pressure washer. I also use a foam cannon. I'm sure you can get a foam cannon with a fitting on the end so you could use both. ;)

[@hsvkidusa]

Just some things to note from my experience. The turbo brush probably works best on a "soap" or "rinse" low pressure setting. I'm sure the cleated ring didn't like you two fingering the trigger The zep may have been a pressure washing soap. Carwash soaps have a lot more sulfates which cause a lot more foam. Pressure wash (and carpet shampooers) soap are designed to not foam too much. The turbo nozzle is a great piece to have as it takes the strongest tip attachment (needle/0 degree setting) and spins it around giving you a much higher pressure wash efficiency. Keep in mind this was the only product you used WITHOUT any soap

[@jasonhull3891]

The soap foam way is used by detail guys. I've seen it take years off of the underside of trucks. Yes they do hand wash it after but the foam they use takes the road grime off

The black nozzle on your power washer is the soap nozzle it will pull it out evenly

[@92greensho]

I was going to say that too. The rest of the nozzles, and i imagine the spin brush, run too high of pressure to siphon the soap. The black nozzle is engineered to flow it properly.

Turbo nozzles will destroy seals and stickers if u get close. Rule of thumb with pressure washer if it hurts your hand at a certain distance it can hurt your machine.

Doesn't appear that you guys read the instructions on the foam cannon. Typically, you add a small amount of soap in the reservoir, then fill to the top with water. (That small bottle of cleaner should have lasted for several washings.) In my foam cannon, I use Meguires Wash + Wax car wash from Walmart (about 10% soap to 90% water in the reservoir). The wax puts a nice sheen on the black plastics of the SxS, and makes everything look like new.

[@brenthill5596]

You're on the right track but using the wrong ZEP. Try the ZEP truck and trailer wash 12.8pH also known as ZEP TNT in the foam cannon. Let sit for 5-6 minutes but reapply if needed to keep it wet.

I'll scrub a little on the tough spots with a soft car wash brush, and maybe gently on the harnesses if they are dirty. Then, I rinse well with pressure washer. To get a spot free finish, I'll use my leaf blower to get all the big water off, and may run a clean towel or rag over the cage and exterior plastics. Some guys on the FB groups say they use Tide laundry soap, or a mix of Tide and Simple Green in their foam cannons. Not sure if this increases suds or is supposed to cut grime. However, I do know that the Tide that you buy today doesn't suds up like the Tide when we were kids...

I snow foam my cars every week even in winter and it keeps them looking great. You need to use good quality snow foam liquid for it to really work. Especially on salty road gunk. You can also use dish washing fluid you'd use in the kitchen if you want a great cleaner but cheap. Here in Scotland its Fairy liquid, the USA is it Dawn Dish soap? I duno. the cheap dish cleaner stuff. To be honest there are much better snow cannons out there than the ryobi one. Autobrite's HD lance is the best one out there by far.

[@Todd66]

Not a great idea to regularly use a dish soap for cleaning cars and plastics. The soap is designed to cut oil and will dry out plastics and weaken a clear coat. Best to use car soaps for regular washing and then for the heavy stuff, use something like Purple Power or any strong degreaser. Car soap is PH balanced, so it’s not going to cut heavy stuff, but it will not harm your plastics and painted surfaces. It also will not strip wax or sealers, so they last longer with car soap. I hope this info is useful

the spinner nozzle you guys used must not be very good I have one that came with my electric power washer and I had to take is back off because it was actually cutting through my decals on my 2018 rzr you may want to try a different brand spinner nozzle

[@brodygoodrich926]

Pretty much the best stuff and the cheapest stuff for the foam gun, is just normal dish soap because it last longer and it comes out pretty thick and actually stays foamy on the vehicle for a while, we’ve used it many times with with completely muddy trucks and dirt bikes, and dish soap in the foam gun works amazing

[@mandf8554]

The third one they showed is meant for or the idea of it came from hydro digging you can dig holes in the ground with it so of course it takes mud off easily paint and some plastics and stickers/wrap

[@beckylong927]

Buy a true PF 22 foam cannon and coat the vehicle with a thick coat of foam after initially pressure washing off the heavy stuff. Let the foam set for a few minutes then hand wash with a mitt and then pressure wash with a final rinse. You should be good to go, Chemical Guys sells a good heavy duty soap for off road vehicles.

[@barryharper9304]

I use Zep Truck and Trailer wash in my foam cannon. NAPA sells it. And it works AMAZING. I FOAM IT twice and then just powerless with no scrubbing and it keeps all my vehicles shining!!!!

[@69headwound]

No scrubbing whatsoever eh?

[@camkid1991]

Fill your foam blaster with half zep degreaser and half tide laundry detergent. I spray it right on the mud and it just melts off. Works great!

I’ve learned some of these accessories are designed for low flow electric pressure washers. Your washer has to much pressure/flow. I have a big Dirt Killer that eats these things and cheap foam cannons for lunch. My electric on the other hand can run some of these. The turbo nozzle is not for cars or paint unless you want it removed. Foam cannons are absolutely THE way to go but you can’t use standard car soap, you need foaming specific soap like Chemical Guys citrus or melon soaps. The best cannon is by MTM, the least expensive is by Max Shine which works really well for $30.

[@RuggedAdventures]

The foam cannon was pretty impressive but tbh just the first rinse would probably be fine for me!

[@Devildog3106]

To make the black look better and shine, pledge works very well and helps with mud not sticking because it’s greasy

[@WyomingBagger]

Love the new channel! You guys are the best!

When you use the foam attachment start the foam from the bottom and go up. Yes it's the opposite of how your supposed to wash but the foam breaks down and pulls the dirt in it. Basically lifting the dirt. So by the time you make it to the top you can start rinsing it off along with the dirt. When it's all gone then go top to bottom with one last rinse.

[@ricardowoods8133]

The turbo nozzle is great for pressure washing wood fence or concrete. Nice vid.

[@JustinPfirman]

Not sure about that brand of turbo nozzle but the one I got from lowes (Few years ago) is a BEAST ! It will rip anything off. Just looking at the stream of the one you have looks off. With that said I would NOT Use one for your side by sides. If it was a good quality one it would of pealed those decals right off your machines. It will also rip the seats and anything soft up. It is not really meant for vehicle care. They may say they are but you will do more damage than good. Again this is dependent on the quality of the Turbo nozzle. The one I have will bore holes through wood, (Standard Pressure washer not industrial) After watching this though I will have to pick up a foam cannon, That thing looks pretty sweet !

[@theninja001]

It seems like the foam cannon would work at a lower psi, just enough to get it on there and soak. The high pressure puts more water in the mix and it just runs off. It seems like videos where they use a low pressure electric unit get good solid foam coverage that doesn’t run off. Then you could final rinse with the power washer?

[@damianalbury9583]

Those spinning brush units I remember from the early '80s used with a garden hose. I am sure that's the same unit the manufacturer adapted with a pressure washer attachment because it has the garden hose screw on and just does not take the high pressure.

[@snowmobile488]

We use those spiinin tips on oil rigs. They work really good

[@JM75814]

Throw some dawn in that blaster!!!! And tighten the tip! More foam than you can handle

[@mikeyvlogs9874]

Joel Munson dawn will take clear coat off paint if used too often. Maybe once every year hit it with dawn but not every wash.

[@DUNEATV]

Good old fashion elbow grease for me...and that American flag 🇺🇸 blowing in the background is beautiful!

[@tmonster1498]

MTTC Foam cannon & Mr suds foam concentrate on Amazon Foam concentrate $12.94 1/2 gallon...stuff is amazing...you can adjust volume and spray pattern on foam cannon....I spray my cars/trucks/quads 2 times and rinse ....works awesome

[@wisetow10]

Imagine what might happen if you half way kinda read directions. Sky’s the limit. Also the good foam cannons are awesome to soap down, then mitt down, then rinse. Foam cannon added into standard wash cuts time in half.

[@MJJCvideo]

@SXSBlog Garage, hello, would you like to review the new MJJC foam cannon pro? Thank you.

[@jamesbaker6705]

I use honest wash Mud Cutter concentrate in my foam cannon. The stuff is about $20/gallon. You use 2-4 oz in the bottle then fill the rest with water. It works great and it's cheap. Get up to 64 washes out of one gallon for $20

[@WyomingBagger]

Try SC-1 from Amazon after the unit drys! And your welcome!

[@joshdeloach5566]

Pro foam cannon mud tip, mix tide laundry detergent and simple green together in the bottle, the mud will literally fall off and your sxs will look brand new
