  7. Rinse: After allowing the foam to dwell and break down dirt, rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water using your pressure washer or a hose.

Helpful Tips:

  • For heavily soiled surfaces, allow the foam to sit for a few minutes before rinsing.
  • Always test the foam cannon and detergent on an inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility and prevent damage.
  • The 34 fl oz capacity minimizes the need for frequent refills during larger cleaning tasks.
