Be in the Know: Main Differences of Your Foam Cannon and Gun

So, you've just got a fun new gadget for cleaning your car: a foam cannon and a gun. Exciting! But what's the difference between the two? Let's know below.

3 Key Differences Between Cleaning Cannons and Guns

At Clean Offroad, we want to help you understand the differences between these two cleaning products. Here's a simple comparison to make it easier for everyone!

1. Power Source

For a cleaning cannon, it connects to a pressure washer, which uses powerful water pressure to create a rich, thick foam that sticks to surfaces. This makes it perfect for tough cleaning jobs and removing stubborn dirt and grime. 

In contrast, a foam gun is attached to your garden hose. It's great for quick clean-ups and lighter cleaning tasks around your home or yard.

2. Foam Quality and Thickness

On the one hand, a cleaning gun creates a light, airy foam that's great for everyday cleaning tasks. On the other hand, a cleaning cannon produces a thick, creamy foam that sticks to surfaces longer, making it easier to clean effectively.

3. Cleaning Intensity

A cleaning gun works well for a small cleaning task involving removing dust and pollen. But a cleaning cannon is top-tier when you need to tackle tougher cleaning jobs, such as getting rid of dirt, grime, and other stubborn messes.

Foam Gun or Cannon? The Right Tool for the Job

To make the best choice, consider the following:

  • How Often You Clean 
  • Type of Cleaning 
  • Foam Thickness 

Choose the option that best fits your cleaning style!
