Do these really work as well as advertised? Can I take my dirty truck, foam it up, let it soak a few minutes and then blast rinse it off?
Washing my truck is pretty low on my priority list, so it gets a bath maybe once every two summer months and will go all winter without so I'm not looking for show truck clean. BUT this sounds more my speed and something I could see doing once to twice a month(during the warmer days).
Thanks

No.. you'll still be washing the car.. I just bought one of the cheaper foam cannons, (don't waste $80 on these things) to use with a small electric pressure washer I bought. the bigger washers will just produce thicker foam, that will take a little longer to run off the car. There is no magic in this.. it looks cool, yes.. but if you want a clean car, you're gonna be washing it like a normal person.
This was the best reviewed cheaper no-name one on Amazon. Actually was better than I expected.. it's $20, and the same as the expensive ones as far as I'm concerned.

If you wanna save time washing the car - the best two things I've bought are a micro fiber wash mitt that's on an extending handle. Will cut your time and effort in half.. second - a 1 gallon garden sprayer, and a gallon a concentrate wheel cleaner from Meguiars that you can dilute. It's a lot faster spraying the wheels, and you use a lot less of it cause of the fine mist with the pressurized sprayer. You can get one in Home Depot for $10.
Look through the Ryobi electric pressure washer thread in the hot deals forum. We were talking about these things. Starts at the bottom of page 1 I think
