A cannon hooks up to a pressure washer. Foam gun to a garden hose.

Thank you. I have a pressure washer. Do you use the pressure washer to rinse your truck? I figured the high pressure would ruin the paint.

I do use a pressure washer to rinse my truck. You just have to make sure that you have the right nozzle in the wand or you'll be using your tears to rinse the truck! [emoji22]

I won't be home until Saturday, I can look at the package then and let you know. I bought a 4 pack and each nozzle has a specific use, they are the ones that you would find at home Depot or Lowe's.

Awesome. Thanks I appreciate it. Are the nozzles universal and will work with most pressure washers?

as long as your paint isnt already peeling and you dont use the 0 degree nozzle you wont hurt your paint, mine is a 3000 psi gas powered washer

The 40 degree (white) nozzle is for rinsing, the 65 degree (black) is for soap. And yes, they should be interchangeable.

So you don't have to buy "special" foam?
