Default Foam gun
Tried using the foam gun hook up to the garden hose, noticed the pressure might not be strong enough to cause foaming? Any suggestion ? TIA

Could be the pressure, the gun or the soap. What gun do you have and what soap?

Autogeek's gun says it works best at 40-60 PSI which is pretty typical for residences.

That's the one I have. I use Adam's carwash and it works fine. We have high pressure also. Low pressure may be the problem.
