A Thing! Yes!. Really interesting vehicles. Haven't seen one in person in a long time that's for sure. I kind of forgot how small they are seeing you tower over it.
Thanks for the video Brian! I have a Ryobi electric pw, cheap Amazon foam cannon and the 1.1mm orifice. I can get great foam however I can barely get around a mini van before my bottle is nearly empty. What is the trick? I've seen other youtubers lay down foam around the whole vehicle twice with a quarter left still in the bottle? I've done 2-3 oz soap with either 10 oz water OR the rest of the bottle full of water.
What product would you recommend to lubricate the quick disconnect coupler on the nozzle(where the foam cannon would attach to). Mine gets stuck sometimes. MTM said any silicone based lubricant would do. Would WD-40 be fine?
I'm hoping you can help, I just purchased the SG28 with the of 22.2 cannon. When trying to use the stubby, the water shoots out all around the tip but not through the tip. Yes the connections are tight and sealed with teflon tape. I'm using the Ryobi 3300 psi 2.3 gpm gas pressure washer. If I change to the stock Ryobi tip as well as a generic 40° tip to the stubby I get the same results. When I use the stock Ryobi wand with the foam cannon as well as either tip it works fine. I can't do understand why the water is spraying all over the place from around the female quick connect at the tip? There is not an o ring that could be broken?
Hey Brian I'm currently using a low pressure foam cannon (which I bought for an electric pressure washer) on a 3100psi gas unit. It doesn't seem to work very well. Have you ever tried the 1.1 orfice on high pressure just to see what happens? It's a cheaper generic foam cannon so I'm not sure if the orfice size is hurting performance or if it's just a cheaply built unit. Thanks and Happy 4th to you
HOW do I know which size Orifice I have in mine?? I opened my MTM PF22 which I bought from Amazon for my electric pressure washer but don't see any markings on the orifice to know what size it is...
Apex detail... I know you're vid is old, but I have a question. My gun has been dropped a few times. Why may it be running water on its on without trigger engagement?
Good video Brian very interesting, just do not know what would be your option 1 and what would be your option 2, cost and utility ... thanks for sharing ... always pending your videos
Hey Brian, I'm just pulling together a video demonstrating the difference in flow rates for the generic guns Vs the MTM one, would you mind if I included a bit of your tear down footage in my video? I'll of course put a card to your full video, but I wanted to ask permission rather than just doing it.
Great informative video Bryan !!!!! I have gone through two of the cheaper Duschin short handles as the trigger tends to break. My next purchase will definitely be a beefier MTM. Do you know what size the inlet is on the MTM? I noticed the Duschin has a threaded male connect while the MTM does not. I need he threaded male to connect to my electric PW. If you happen to know the size it would be very helpful when I order.
Hey Brian, noticed what looks like a GreenWorks Electric pressure washer in your video...I've got a SunJoe 3000, and I've struggled to figure out how to adapt it to a snub gun? The hose has M22/15mm ends on it, and I've tried to configure things so I can get a snub gun? There has to be an easier way than getting multiple male/female/plug adapters?? I keep running into a dead end....I just want to get a nice 50ft flexible hose and snub gun with one adapter on the output of the SunJoe unit? Oh, and what gas pw are you using in this video?? Happy 4th of July!
JAMES S Yes, it's a mess converting from M22 15mm to 14mm and I'm not sure if there's a simpler method that doesn't require multiple fittings.

Another great informative video 💪🏾 god bless! So I have a request, there’s a lot buzz going on with IPA, to use it or not to use,just wanted to see what’s your opinion on that , thanks
When I run out of my Angelwax Strip Ease... I will mix an IP at 20%. Keep in mind ... those who install PPF use it to tack. If its no higher than 20%...you will be fine. I say no to using on fresh or soft clear. That is my take on it.
Hey Brian, I'm pretty happy with my MTM setup, but I could use a hose that's less of a pain in the ass. Would like something that's flexible and easier to work with. Any suggestions?
How do you get away with washing a car indoors? Is using soap foam really necessary other than being cool looking? Why not wash cars the old way using just soapy water and a mit?
The width of the tubing isn't the "difference between a high and low pressure unit" its the difference in a high flow and lower flow rated unit lol both of these a junk btw just roll with a suttner st2605
Hey this reminds me. If you can measure with your calipers the diameter and the whole length of a costing bottle, all sizes... message me the measurements at my instagram. I want to start engineering one and machining a coating bottle holder

Do you use an electric...or gas powered pressure washer?
I don't use one at all. For the sort of thing that I do, the cars arrive clean. A rinseless wash is fine. Not even remotely tempted to shoot foam.
Love using my gas pressure washer on my cars.
Apex Detail I use my electric more than my gas because it is so much more convenient.
Ryobi 2000 psi electric
SunJoe4000...love it
Brian is a Jack of all trades being able to teardown anything!!! Happy 4 July, hope you are taking a break today
Happy 4th!!!✨💥
I like the car! It may be the first (VW) Thing in the history of humanity to get a wash. ;)
It received a wash and much more... correction video on the way.
Ive pressure washed 200 plus decks/houses over 20 plus yrs. Didn't know much about the guns or wands, but I sure do now...
You remind me of “ Tim the tool man” 🤣 you up great everything you own !! “ it needs more power”
A Thing! Yes!. Really interesting vehicles. Haven't seen one in person in a long time that's for sure. I kind of forgot how small they are seeing you tower over it.
And I am only 5'9" 😂
Brian happy 4th of July to you and your family,have a safe Independence day
And you! Be Safe!!🍻
Thanks for this wonderful post
Thanks for the video Brian!

Did you notice a difference with the 1.1mm upgrade? I too have the Ryobi 1600 washer
The THING!! 😮
Loops And Threads 😁👍🏻
very cool video my friend. ru having 80's flash back with that scale...lol.enjoy ur 4th of july..b well and safe buddy.
.
The best decade EVER!! 😂

correct me if i'm wrong, but those QD's alone can't swivel under pressure
That's been my experience. Has to be a live swivel, I thought, for swiveling under pressure.
Good video , thin foam...it should be closer to lather like shaving cream.
Second time on black Range Rover was better.

The 1.10 is meant for low pressure systems. ... around 2000psi.

Hey Jimbo how many of the plastic bottles do you go through in a season or year. As careful as I am I find myself going through about 2 or 3 a year.
Apex detail... I know you're vid is old, but I have a question. My gun has been dropped a few times. Why may it be running water on its on without trigger engagement?
Good video Brian very interesting, just do not know what would be your option 1 and what would be your option 2, cost and utility ... thanks for sharing ... always pending your videos
For a shop... option one would be the low pressure system.
What do you suggest using on the quick connector to keep it lubed, so that it “swivels” well? Thx Brian
Do the braided hoses layout better and no chance of kinking? Thx Brian
I am in the Uk. Do you send products across the pond? If not do you know of any distributor in the UK? Like you videos.

Mine is 3/8
What can I use an a lubricant for the quick disconnect and swivel?
Have both... use the gas washer.

Hi. When you say keep the connectors lubricated, do you mean adding oil based lubrication to the joints of the QC? thanks.
Try electrical grease. Has no smell and works great
I use white lithium grease.
Another great informative video 💪🏾 god bless!
So I have a request, there’s a lot buzz going on with IPA, to use it or not to use,just wanted to see what’s your opinion on that , thanks
When I run out of my Angelwax Strip Ease... I will mix an IP at 20%. Keep in mind ... those who install PPF use it to tack. If its no higher than 20%...you will be fine. I say no to using on fresh or soft clear. That is my take on it.
What do you suggest for lubrication on brass quick connects?
I always just use white lithium grease. I've heard aerosol propellants degrade orings.
They’re so much here that out was nearly useless
Hey Brian, I'm pretty happy with my MTM setup, but I could use a hose that's less of a pain
in the ass. Would like something that's flexible and easier to work with. Any suggestions?
They are all a pain in the ass. With the pressure. .. they would not last otherwise.😁
How do you get away with washing a car indoors?
Is using soap foam really necessary other than being cool looking? Why not wash cars the old way using just soapy water and a mit?
Soapy water is damaging to the paint
Assuming you're not talking about car soap.
79 through 87 big huge blur...oh yes it was...
Richard Seem 😂
Where did you get the smaller orifice
The width of the tubing isn't the "difference between a high and low pressure unit" its the difference in a high flow and lower flow rated unit lol both of these a junk btw just roll with a suttner st2605
MTM is definitely not junk, but I have heard good feedback about Suttner, haven't tried one yet, but I will eventually.
I have a honda gas powered.
James Biedlar 😁👍🏻
Hey this reminds me. If you can measure with your calipers the diameter and the whole length of a costing bottle, all sizes... message me the measurements at my instagram. I want to start engineering one and machining a coating bottle holder
What a waste of soap u still got to use more soap to wash I’ll stick to rinseless
Job security for me👍🏻
