If theres a lower near you they sell the gaskets in the power washer section it should be a variety pack of o rings which you can replace on your high pressure gun by using a universal wrench very easy. It should be five bucks after changing mine I've been fine seems like the one that came on the original was cheap and blew rather quickly causing the leak.

I only clean the face and lips during regular washes, and I clean the barrels whenever the wheels are off the car (which seems to be often). I'm not comfortable with the idea of using the rinseless solution to clean the brake dust off my of rims. By brake pads dust a lot in the front and rear, but they suit my driving preferences.

I understand, a lot of the people I work with are also skeptical about the whole rinse less ordeal however on Honda civics hybrids some none performance cars that does not accumulate as harsh of a brake dust from high performance brakes, you can simply use a damp mf, spray the rinse less, scoop up the dust, rinse and repeat and it works great.

what is rinse less method?

If I go for the foam gun, do I still need to wash the car with the mitt?

Yes you still need to use a mitt.

I use a foam gun to pre-soak, and loosen any dirt. Rinse off. Foam gun again, then do 2 bucket method.

Well my old pressure washer broke down and no replacements parts were available so I put it to rest. She did a great job for the money and lasted hundreds of hours without any issues. Replaced it with a unit from a commercial tool supply store that also services them and has replacement parts and upgrades if required. They also tossed in a foam cannon with a little adapter that replaces the plastic piece making it a snap to take on and off. I can't believe how far this unit can shoot foam, maybe a little too far. It does fan out making it a quick and easy job to cover a vehicle.

Thanks.

anyone use Adam's Polishes or Zaino products, and how good are they?

FastFord

Adam's make some good products, but I no longer use them due to ease of access. I used to use Zaino and found they worked well but was a little more labor intensive and needed to cure, sort of. Both good products, can't go wrong.

Mostly use now, Meguiars, Menzerna, Wolfgang, 3M and Klasse. For waterless cleaning ECH20

I watch foam cannon videos on Instagram.
I find it oddly soothing for some reason.
