If you have a pressure washer then use the Professional Foam Lance Adjustable with 32 oz. Bottle by MTM Hydro

without a pressure washer then use - Gilmour Foamaster II

You can do a 90% clean car wash in 5-10 minutes with just an MTM foam gun. Best damn thing in my cleaning arsenal. Baked on bugs gone with no scrub'n!

My electric pressure washer had a built in tank for foam, but is think it bit the dust. Will be looking for a new one. Good suggestion.
Professional foam lance adjustable

There are a ton of youtube videos with foam guns. Looks cool, is a lot of fun, and helps get your car clean.

The amazon one looks to have brass components which may corrode over time. Here is a stainless options that we use in the commercial world.

I use Chemical Guys Pro Foam Cannon. Also I love theirs and Adam's Products. Adam's Wheel cleaner is amazing.

That is for a garden hose. The Amazon MTM foam cannon is brass/bronze and designed for a pressure washer. Heavy duty brass is what water taps and pressure washer pumps components are made of.
