    I just picked this up at Target for 8 bucks. I haven't tried it yet, and didn't remember anyone having bought one before. But I figured for 8 bucks, how can you go wrong!

    Just thought I'd share. :headbang:

    I saw that and thought about giving it a shot as well. But decided against it since I've my my Gilmour and I highly doubt that will perform better. But it will be good to know for those that don't want to pay $60 for a foam gun right now.

    hhhmmmm... yes i would like to see it in action as well. I know Harbor Freight carries a foam gun, but it's like $20. I would like to have something to stick to my garden hose when I do cars at the house and don't wannt detail outta the back of my trailer

    You know I saw that last week and almost bought one, decide to get one of their yellow drying towels instead. I was afraid it would just be more like a soap sprayer and not really create any foam. Let us know how it works though because I'm still curious about it, in fact I've thought about going back and getting one since that day but I've been too cheap to do it.

    I have one from Lowe's that I bought ages ago and it's awesome! If I recall correctly, it was under $10.

    The grass is a little long, but that stuff you see on the left is actually herbs!

    Hey Piet any chance you'll have those herbs at your new house!!! Maybe have them for desert when you "host" the next Cen-tex DF!

    A little quote from Cypress Hill:

    Is that a little "Temple of Boom"?

    I saw them live once, they were wicked. They played for a frat party when I was in college and these drunken fools had no idea who Cypress Hill were. So I looked around and the entire Cypress Hill group was just standing next to me hanging out before the concert.

    Is that nozzle spray the lowe's version or the Brookstone version?

    I can't tell if it is black or blue haha.

    Also what setting do you use to wash the car? Center? Mist? Jet?

    And do you just spot spray the tar/insect, let it sit a bit and then use the wash?

    Sorry for all the questions. Thanks!

    I use the Lowe's gun as well. I've been very happy with it. I'd like to see the Vroom one as well.

    Do you water your herbs with it?

    I bought it at Lowe's, but I'm not sure what brand it was. It's black actually. For washing the car, I put it on FAN and to foam it I put it on CENTER. To rinse off each panel I put it on SHOWER. I LOVE THIS THING!!! For $10, what a bargain.

    In regards to the Poorboys Bug Squash, I pre-treat the areas and then start washing the car as normal.

    You know it!!!

    Any updates on this? i just spotted it today at target as well. Also, does anyone know if their towels/applicators are any good? I was tempted to buy some
