Title: Pressure Washer & Foam Gun advice
Post by: Max GTI on 19 July 2011, 18:13: Hello Guys & Girls

Yes another pressure washer and foam gun question (sorry) :wink:
I'm basically looking to get my first pressure washer and a foam gun (lance) if itâ€™s what theyâ€™re called. Iâ€™ve had a look on the internet and on here and it seems like people go for a NILFISK or karcher. Iâ€™ve seen one of each and just wanted peoples opinion was.
It doesnâ€™t need to be powerful as i want the paint to remain on the car :smiley: just to clean it and be able to attach a foam gun to it.

http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.209-6877.aspx

Also the foam gun attachment iv seen is this one.

I guess it will fit fine on the Karcher because the fitting is on the list (none pro one I assume) but will need to buy a different foam gun to fit on the NILFISK.

Thanks for the help in advance
Max

That website doesn't have the NILFISK addapter unless another manufacturers one will fit?

Cheers
