first of all, you have to watch this little video so i can ask the questions...

auto glym washing system. use it with a pressure washer. i have a troy bilt 3000psi pressure washer with two bottles for using a soap solution. is that the same as using one of these foaming applicators that connect on the end of the wand? i would think my unit isn't gonna do the same thing.
i've seen other brands of foamers work, but non that ever laid down this kind of foam or as much and that didn't roll off quickly. also, i've been told that using a high pressure machine on a car isn't really all that good of an idea. does this autoglym method and attachment not really use as much pressure as the video makes it look?
here's the autogeek brand unit... http://www.autogeek.net/foam-cannon-wash-gun.html
so, am i correct in assuming that if you keep some decent wax on your car instead of breaking out the wash mit and rubbing you can soak your car down with water and then foam it and after letting it sit rinse it with the pressure washer and it's clean and all you do is dry after? if this really works if would make my life a lot easier with 4 cars to take care of that sit outside. plus, i have a really bad back so bending over and scrubbing isn't something i like doing.
i'm trying to put together an order for a buffer and pads and was gonna get one of these attachments for my power washer if they do what they look like they do. how long do you need to let the foam soak on the car? after asking a bunch of questions on what stuff to get i'm down to going to order a porter cable 7424xl orbital and some lake country pads along with a foamer and i'll use the meguiars products i already have. smooth surface clay bar kit, ultimate compound, and ultimate liquid wax.
if anybody uses a foamer i'd like to hear about it. if you hate it or love it.... if it will do what i think it's gonna do. i have the meguiars products already but i also have a shelf full of other stuff. mothers, 3m, and a bunch more. i've always kinda likes meguiars the best in part cause i can always find it at wallymart so i don't have to hunt for it and even though advance says they ''won't be beat'' on price they charge about 20 or 30 percent more and to get them to match the price you gotta bring in an add or some such nonsense... so why not just buy the same thing at the cheaper store to begin with.
thanks for the continued help on this stuff before i plunk down my cold hard cash....
