Oh hey I didn't see you there.
Welcome back to Detail Garage.
On this episode we have a shagedelic shaguar in the Detail Garage that needs to be cleaned up.
Now I'm just working on the wheels and I'm almost done.
As soon as I finish here I'm going to show you guys how to use the brand new TORQ Foam Blaster.
Oh in case you didn't know which show you're watching we got an extra sign.
Today we're showing you how to set up your brand new TORQ Foam Blaster Foam Gun.
This is a great tool for any enthusiast or professional detailer who wants to add a lot
of extra foamy suds to the car wash without investing in a very expensive pressure washer
to use a Foam Cannon.
The Foam Cannon uses high pressure water to spray thick shaving cream level foam over a vehicle.
With a Foam Gun you can keep up with the big boys you can spray tons of soapy slick suds
to help avoid adding swirls or scratches during a car wash.
All you need to use your Foam Gun is a standard garden hose.
The new TORQ Foam Gun has improved internals and an improved nozzle for extra foamy suds with less soap.
It's more efficient you get more pressure out of a standard garden hose with the improved
nozzle which also has some refined components to help resist corrosion and promote longevity.
The nozzle can be used by itself to rinse down the car and it attaches to the Foam Gun
with a quick release system.
So you snap it on so you can use it spray foam or rinse the car down before or after the wash.
The nozzle itself also comes with a quick release system.
If you can't attach this to your hose you can simply unscrew it.
If you do have your own type of shut off valve with a quick release system you can simply
snap it in so you change between different types of nozzles without shutting off the
hose at the spigot.
I'll attach the Foam Blaster nozzle to the garden hose.
Now I'm ready to start rinsing down the car and washing the car and I can foam it whenever I'm ready.
To set up your Foam Blaster all you need to do is fill it up with some water.
I've already pre filled the thirty two ounce soap solution bottle with water.
Now you fill it up with thirty two ounces of water and you can one to three ounces of
your favorite car wash soap.
So today I'm going to be using Mr. Pink.
This is my favorite car wash soap and I'm just going to add two ounces because this
car actually has a pretty thick layer of dust on it and I don't want to scratch anything.
After you add your soap reattach the top of the Foam Gun and give it a quick shake to
mix up all the soap.
The TORQ has a dial on the top this just helps you choose the amount of foam and thickness
of the foam as you spray.
So all you need to do is turn this knob as you're spraying the foam to really get the
required thickness and amount foam to suit your needs.
So I have my two bucket system set up here.
I'm going to wash the car and I don't want to install any swirls or scratches.
I have the second bucket to rinse off any dirt from the wash mitt before I get extra soap.
I also have my Dirt Trap Wash Screens and this is going to help me separate any dirt
out from the wash water.
To help guard against installing any swirls or scratches by dragging any of that loose
dirt back across the paintwork.
Now just like that you fill up your buckets with water and insert the Dirt Traps at the bottom.
Now I have different color Dirt Traps just helps me separate the wash bucket and the
rinse bucket or wheel bucket as long as you remember which one is which.
I'll just add one to three ounces of Mr. Pink in the soap bucket.
Suds up the bucket with the nozzle.
I have a Bear Claw Wash Pad to help me wash the car in a gentle way without installing
swirls or scratches as I go.
As you see this holds tons of soap and suds.
Now that I have all this set up I need to rinse down the car.
I"ll rinse down the car to help loosen any of that stuck on grime and rinse away any loose surface dirt.
Now you want to rinse the car from top to bottom.
This car has a convertible top so I'm going to avoid the fabric top as best as I can it's
okay to get it wet but I'm going to avoid saturating the top.
I will clean the top later using the Convertible Top Cleaner and a brush.
I'm going to start by rinsing the paintwork from the top down to the bottom of the car.
Now that the car is rinsed down I'm ready to start foaming down the car for an extra
slick extra safe wash on this vehicle.
I'll just grab my TORQ Foam Gun and pull back the quick release barb and then snap the
Foam Gun in and now it is attached.
Just give it a quick test to make sure it isn't going to fall off.
Now as I start spraying foam on the car I'm going to turn the dial until I get the perfect
thickness of foam.
You can see as you turn the dial the level of foam changes.
That does mean you're using more soap per gallon of water flowing through the hose.
If you need extra lubrication this is the safest way to do things.
Another way you can use this Foam Gun is you can pull off the front nozzle and you'll see
it has a little plus symbol shape in here.
So you can have it spray foam vertically if you need to cover the whole side of a car quickly.
Or you can have it spray horizontally if you need to cover a lot of flat areas quickly.
Either way is fine you can use which ever way suits your needs.
I'm going to use the vertical pattern.
As far as actually foaming down the car there is a couple different methods detailers like to use.
They either like to foam down the whole car at once and then start wiping with a mitt
or you can spray the Foam Gun directly into the mitt with every wipe.
That gives you the most lubrication per swipe if you're dealing with an extra sensitive
surface or dark car you don't want to show any swirls after you wash the car.
This car has a durable vinyl wrap that I'm not too worried about and there isn't a whole
lot of dirt on it.
I'm just going to foam down the whole car and wipe it with a mitt as usual to help remove
all this dirt without installing any swirls or scratches in the vinyl wrap.
So now we're moving on to the car wash with the full detail on this Jaguar.
Now I'm going to be using the Bear Claw Wash Pad to wipe off all the dirt, grime and debris
without installing any swirls or scratches.
As you can see this synthetic lambs wool mitt is extremely absorbent.
It holds tons of soap and tons of suds so as I wipe gently across the surface I'm not
going to install any scratches in the painted finish or any vinyl wraps like this Jaguar.
Now I'm wiping in one direction and the lambs wool mitt actually helps pick up and trap
any abrasive dirt particles in the synthetic fur.
So the Bear Claw will actually help pick up and hold the dirt away from the surface so
I'm not going to scratch anything as I clean the car.
It's easy to grip it has two big sides so I can easily wipe down a lot of surface of
the vehicle with one pass.
Now that the mitt is saturated with dirt and the surface is clean I'll come over to my
second bucket that is filled with plain water and I'll scrub the mitt directly on the Dirt Traps surface.
So this is pushing the dirt out from the fibers underneath the Dirt Trap so when you pull
it out it's nice and clean.
To help purge out any last dirt from the system I'll just wring it out on the ground.
So when I come back to the soap bucket I have no dirt and no abrasive particles in the wash mitt.
I'll continue washing the whole car as normal with the Bear Claw Wash Pad.
So now you see how easy it is to turn any car wash or full detail into a fun foam party
using the TORQ Foam Blaster Foam Gun.
Now you don't need any special equip you don't need any pressure washers, all you need to
use the Foam Gun is your normal garden hose.
Simply attach the nozzle attach the Foam Gun and you're ready to spray your car with tons
of soapy suds to avoid installing any swirls and any scratches.
