The Harbor Freight 1.25 gallon garden sprayer is great for pre-spraying the vehicle. You only have to pump it a few times and it provides much better coverage than the battery powered one that you used in the video.

You're right. If I had to use a pump sprayer it would be under duress, mess like that is excruciatingly problematic. It's just low quality marketing junk. I either use a Marolex 2 liter sprayer and spray the chemicals such as Gsf or Gs or Superfoam usually without foam for better contact and lather. I can do my entire X5 with 2 liter. Either before the main wash and afterwards with pH neutral foam such as the Gsf with a Birchmeier Vario-Matic 1.25 PE. Expensive tools but exceptionally good.

@@laurapalmerTDGEthat’s just those sprayers I got that blue and white one it has way better spray than the Harbor Freight which I have as well. You’d have to try it for yourself before you’d know, I have these.

Why does it look like you have the IK filled to the top?. There is no room for air when you do that. Try filling it half way up with product and then pump it up.

Can't wait for the super soaper!! is there any new ETA now that is mid-July? Also, in the last video you said I think about 4:1 dilution ratio in a small handheld pump sprayer like these, wouldn't that increase the pH or it's still safe to use without removing protection? What would be the highest dilution ratio that is still safe for not removing Tough as Shell?

I should be shipping this coming week. It does increase the pH in the pump sprayer but I haven’t had any negative effect in a pump sprayer.

No Hifay Foamer on Amazon. One foamer pressurize the bottle and the other kind pump's the product to top . IK will bringing out a great battery powered small size foamer in the beginning of November .

Can you test/demonstrate the harbor freight hose foam sprayer? Something like that would open up your product to more of the garden hose masses, the bulk of the bell curve.

I'm not a fan of pumping. Adding a Shrader valve to an IK or Marolex is the way to go. Or but ones that already have it. I bought a 1 gallon and 1.5 gallon Longray stainless steel sprayer that has a Shrader valve. You can actually pump it up to 90 PSI. But sprays fine at 40-50. Even after spraying all of the solution it has around 30 PSI of air in it. The only thing is, it won't foam anything. It just sprays mist or stream. I can maybe mod it to foam. I have a Marolex Foamer with a Shrader valve and it does great. I have to keep my mini tire pump running though. Now I'm going to try to use my 1 gallon stainless steel sprayer as an air tank connected to my Marolex.

WE NEED A VIDEO ASAP ABOUT THAT SOAP THAT SITS AT 12.5 PH bro!!! Def not 8.5ph. I understand once it's in the cannon its dilluted plus the water running through the pressure washer but most products advertise the PH that the soap is out the bottle so you really need to let ppl know this, that can strip off all kinds of protection!
@autodetailingpodcast5 ай бұрын
I have stated that in multiple videos, the pH is when the product hits the surface, I’ve never said it’s 8.5 in the bottle.

You left no room for air in the IK. Try it again half or 3/4 full.
