Gilmour 875084-1001 Foamaster Single Ratio Wash Cleaning Sprayer Nozzle, 4 oz

I just received it today (6/5/2014). First let me say that the gun seems to be of high quality. It looks very similar to the Gilmour Foamaster II, although the dail has numbers 0 - 5 on it whereas I believe the Gilmour has letters A - E. The directions don't provide flow rates so I don't know what the numbers mean yet. The dial doesn't have such a great feel to it, in fact, it feels kinda chincy, so we'll see, but I don't think I'll be changing the settings once I get this unit dialed in, so I don't think it will be a problem. The bottle thread is a smaller diameter than the Gilmour. The down side is that you won't be able to buy a larger bottle like you can for the Gilmour Foamasters. I don't think this is a big deal for home use as the bottle seems to be big enough on setting 1 to foam down my entire car, which is a 2011 Fusion Sport, with the bottle going empty just as I got the last part of the car foamed, so you can kinda judge how much coverage you would get on your car at that setting. I can't tell you if 1 is the highest or lowest setting, more on that later. The attachment of the foam nozzle looks identical to the Gilmour with exactly the same kind of spring clip. Lastly, the sprayer handle and the quick connect fittings appear to be identical to the Gilmour gun and is made of very high quality brass construction. The sprayer handle has a heavy, solid feel to it. It appears that Gilmour makes this gun. I don't know who BunnyK is, but this gun is a really great deal IMO.The unit comes in a small box with the 4 main pieces separated. After watching the Junkman video about changing the foam nozzle head and spring clip, I knew to check to make sure the spring clip bump was fully seated in the notch and then insert the nozzle, pushing until you hear it click. Well, I never heard it click and when I pulled it back, it came right out. I thought, oh no, this is going to be a problem. So, I pushed it back in as hard as I could, but never heard it click. This time, however, it seemed to be in a little better, so I thought I'd test it with water. It was fine, the foam nozzle stayed in and I had no problems during use.I have Chemical Guys Honeydew Snow Foam on order but it hasn't been delivered yet, and I couldn't wait to try this foam gun out, so I used my Meguiars Deep Crystal Car Wash soap instead. I wasn't expecting much foam since that is some pretty cheap soap. First I tried a light concentration, just barely covering the bottom of the bottle with the soap and then filling it about 1/2 full with water. It made foam, but nothing spectacular. I tried different settings and it didn't seem to make any difference. I decided to fill the bottle about 1/8 full with soap and no water to see how the foam was affected. It made some awesome foam! I tried the various settings and I couldn't really tell much difference between them. This is why I can't tell you if 1 is the highest or lowest setting, there just wasn't enough of a difference for me to really tell.I can tell you that the foam it made with the Deep Crystal soap and no water was nice; not pressure washer foam cannon nice, but every bit as good as every Gilmour videos I've seen. I was very happy, but it did suck down the soap fast.For my next test, I wanted to see if I could feel a difference in suction in the tube with the various settings. I removed the jar and pulled the trigger with my finger over the suction tube. The water came out of the foam nozzle as normal, no water came out from the bottle lid, and I could feel a strong suction from the tube. This unit doesn't mix water in the bottle, it draws the soap mixture out of the bottle and mixes it with the water inside the venturi. I could feel a slight difference in tube suction between the various settings, but again, it wasn't enough to really know what the settings were doing. I'm going to need to measure the rates with a bucket and a timer to figure out what the settings do. It will require some trial and error with soap concentrations and dial settings to really zero in on the best combination. The suction felt strong enough to pull some pretty thick soap, so I don't think clogging will be a problem.I decided to try a 25% soap 75% water mix in the bottle and filled it up to a level about midway between the neck and the top of the BunnyK logo. It made awesome foam and as previously stated, I was able to foam down my whole car with that amount on setting 1.One thing I will say is that this gun consumed a LOT of soap. Part of that was likely the need to have a high concentration to get the Megiuars Deep Crystal car wash to foam, and part of it is that it draws the solution out of the bottle very quickly. I wasn't worried about the high soap concentration this time because I have already stripped my wax off in preparation for clay bar and some paint correction work that I will be doing, but such high concentrations would definitely be a concern on a freshly waxed vehicle. The level of concentration that I needed with the Deep Crystal to make it foam would very likely remove wax.Overall, I am very impressed with this foam gun. It's a steal compared to the other Gilmour foam guns and seems to perform just as well. Not sure how durable the dial will be, but it shouldn't matter once it's dialed in. Hopefully, I will be able to use the Honeydew Snow Foam at it's recommended concentration and get great foam without removing wax. I think if the Honeydew lives up to the hype, this gun will deliver the foam.

The media could not be loaded. After trying a few different brands I finally landed in this one and the search was OVER!!! This thing throws a ton of foamed soap and without draining the tank and wasting a bunch of soap. It has nice strong brass fittings and with the quick release to remove the soap tank, it has a terrific rinse gun that allows you to modulate between a nice heavy and thick cavitated water stream for great spread of water for rinsing quickly, and then a nice tight stream of jet type water stream to force the soap out of crevices, molding, window trim, etc. This is without question the best unit you can buy for the money for shooting thick suds onto your car and following up with a hand wash with a microfiber mit from a bucket of soapy water. Personally i shoot the vehicle with the suds first and allow that soap to loosen up the grime a bit and then blast it off with a good hard rinse so there are no grit particles left to get trapped in the mit and make swirls. Then I hit it again with another coat of suds and do my hand wash with that layer on the car/truck. Hasn’t left any swirl scratches yet!! Absolutely terrific soap shooter!! I actually like it better than the foam canon version out of the pressure washer because the weight of the water and suds sliding down the car does an excellent job removing the larger particles just by sliding down the vehicle from gravity. Works great!! Highly recommended!!

The Gilmour 75QGFMR is a great foam gun. You can easily adjust the amount of soap solution versus water on the fly. The spray with the plastic attachment comes out gently, which I believe is far preferable to blasting your car with high pressure water.The build quality seems amazing. The unit feels very solid, heavy, and well constructed. It comes with its own nozzle that has a push button mechanism for attaching the foam container. This makes switching between rinsing and washing a breeze. The nozzle also can produce a jet or a nice spray depending on how much pressure you apply.There are some downsides though. The instructions are less than ideal. I don't need a full book but it took me some time to figure the adjustments out and it should have just been simpler.The other issue is that it contains lead and warns of the cancer risk while using it. I use gloves to protect my hands from chemicals when I detail my car but for people that don't this is a concern.Between the lead and the instructions I almost gave this gun 3 stars but it works so well, is so well constructed, and is such good value I settled on 4.

This foaming gun has only 2 adjustable ratios; water and foam soap, but good product overall

great product

I bought the Gilmour Foamaster Cleaning Gun Sprayer (75QGF4) for my friend who lives in Taiwan. They don't sell the product there and he needed this for his car. He wanted a deeper clean since he was selling his car and buying a new one. I'm glad I was able to find it on Amazon, since I looked at all the big box retail stores like Lowe's, Home Depot, Rona...etc. The description and pictures of this product is as described. My friend says it works great. I'm glad there were no issues.

Have been using the 'two bucket' system since I bought my 2012 Challenger last summer. Actually saw this gun on a youtube car care video and thought I'd try it. When it arrived, I was quite impressed by its construction - solid brass fittings and well fitting plastic parts. The detachable spray handle is a nice touch too. Don't have to switch to a second nozzle for rinsing..I hooked it up and filled it with some nice Meguiars Gold Class soap and was disappointed to see hardly any foam produced. The Meguiars is quite a thick soap, so I tried diluting it about 50/50 with water in the sprayer jar... Bingo! Massive amounts of foam. I can completely cover my Challenger with a nice thick blanket of foam in less than a minute - and the Challenger is by no means a small car....You could probably omit a bucket and just go with a mitt rinse bucket using this foam gun. I'm determined to avoid as much grit as possible, so will stick with the two buckets and use this foam gun to apply a thick bed of foam as a 'presoak' for the dirt and grime.This will have a lot of uses around the house, not just for the car.Good product, good price, does what it says. Very happy with my purchase.JT.

My only complaint is it's not the one where you can adjust the foam action. Otherwise good quality.
