That was pretty easy! Have you tried this already?

[@supernova1976]

You got lucky there with the placement of the whole 😅, when you started drilling I was praying it is not going to end up under the handle . Excellent idea 👍

[@jordanjoephoto]

love seeing people just give things a go and see what happens, beautiful work!

[@hayden199516]

Sweet!!! Thanks man. Doing it as soon as I can pickup some valves.

[@ddautodetailing]

Nice! Definitely the way to go 👍. Hopefully it holds up for a long time.

[@patrickbyr]

This was super helpful. I did the same and it's a joy to use now. Never would have tried this without seeing it done. Thanks for sharing!

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

Absolutely, glad I could help! Much more pleasant to use this way.

[@cynthiaenglish2736]

Thanks for taking the plunge and giving this a shot. Seems pretty simple and worth the small investment. I’m with you - so done pumping these bad boys and don’t want to continuously buy new ones just to get a pre-installed valve. Thank you Sir. You earned a sub from me!

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

Happy to help and thanks for subscribing!

[@michlin688]

Foam Nation, baby!!! Good job

[@AmirAbdullah]

Nice I’ll try it

[@JorgeAguilar714]

Thanks showing this is possible. I liked the idea of the IK pro2 plus because of the valve but now that’s not an issue. Couple of suggestions: you should look into the Ryobi inflator(since you have he battery already in your drill), I have one and it’s great. Would be perfect for this setup and you don’t have to turn on the compressor to top this off. And only like 20 bucks. 2) when you are trying to figure out the right size drill, use the index (the plastic holder) and use it a sizing gauge. I’m this case the valve would not have fit in the slot for the first bit and you would know to step up one size. Just a time saver.

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

Thanks. I have a more recent video of the inflator you should check out!

[@premiumfueldetailing6642]

Been debating if I should make this modification or purchase the ik foamer 2+ with the Schrader valve pre-installed… have you had any issues with your marolex since doing this or would you recommend the ik foam pro 2+?

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

Getting the valve set so it wouldnt leak was a learning cruve, but otherwise I like this over the ik 2+. I would suggest the IK if you don't feel comfortable modifying yours.

[@premiumfueldetailing6642]

@@BelLavoroAutoSpa cool - thanks!

[@WhiteBeardDetail]

Brah got the shortcuts! Need video on toppers. Just used the graphene detail spray after the wash. Is there anything I can put on for more depth and gloss?

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

Might do something in the future. Not much you van do to add more gloss after already putting something on for protection. The real gloss comes from polishing the paint before hand.

[@WhiteBeardDetail]

@@BelLavoroAutoSpa I'm just been gloss greedy at this point

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

@SiNCERExiii once you polish and protect it you're not gonna be getting anything additional that's noticeable to the eye really

[@lamontdumas4428]

I've read reviews stating some purchasers of the Marolex Axel experienced cracking at the seam on the bottom of the container within a few months of use. How long have you had yours and have you heard of this happening? I'm looking to replace a foam pump that came with a waterless wash kit I purchased from AMMO NYC. Thanks

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

I have had mime for about 2 years now. I think a lot of people are just too rough with their equipment. I have seen people complain of breaking wash buckets and I can't help but wonder if they have steel cage matches with their equipment.

[@lamontdumas4428]

Oh wow, ok. 2 years says a lot. I have an annoying habit of trying to keep everything looking new for as long as I can.... I think I can do that with this also...lol 🙂 Thanks for the reply!

[@skylan6897]

did this ever leak from the seals? I'm trying it with a home Depot garden sprayer and the valve/hole don't leak but it does leak from the top and spray wand area

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

sometimes I have to readjust because I can hear a very slight air leak from the stem. Air doesn't leak out of anywhere else. Liquid could probably leak from the top but I don't overfill or told it over to give it a chance to.

[@EvanFrangos]

Maybe add a bit of silicone and reinstall?

[@Themediaplxg]

I just bought a marolex foamer it has some type of grease in the inner cylinder, is that normal?

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

Yes I believe so. Grease for the pump from the factory, just wipe it off.

[@leardi58]

Thanks for posting you started you did another video on this I could not find it. I have the ik2 looking to do the same so many Schrader valves to choose from on Amazon which one would you recommend now knowing thanks 👍

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

the foam pro 2 does not have it, the 2+ does have it. check the link in the description for the valves, those are what I use and they are still holding up nicely.

[@andrewvickers4487]

👍

[@stevel3881]

Are you still happy with the addition of the Schrader valve? I'm thinking about adding it to mine.

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

So far so good. I have a pack of o rings just incase I get any leaks.

[@polarlab113]

Great mod.just be careful and don’t over pressurize the unit.......kaboooom and you’re covered with goo.or what have you and shrapnel flying everywhere.as well you will blow out the seal between the top and the jar.it’s probably a large O-ring

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

thankfully it has a pressure relief valve that opens automatically

[@johnwhisenant3481]

What about the one at pressurizes itself

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

That one is already good to go out of the box.

[@johnwhisenant3481]

How is it working

[@BelLavoroAutoSpa]

@@johnwhisenant3481 so far so good

You could have done this with one drill hole in cardboard waste my time
