Pressure Washer & Foam Gun advice
« 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 it’s what they’re called. I’ve had a look on the internet and on here and it seems like people go for a NILFISK or karcher. I’ve seen one of each and just wanted peoples opinion was.
It doesn’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

Thanks for the reply, Is it the NILFISK E130. That's about 200-300 quid  :shocked:

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

Cheers
