Isn't that really what the foam is suposed to do, pull dirt with it.

I never understood using the foam cannon and having foam as thick as shaving cream that doesn't suspend or remove dirt.
of course it does, from my experiences with 4 different foam guns and 6 or so different shampoos and conditioners , the cannon cleans the most. I think the more foam on the car, means the more foam to remove dirt. If the foam just slides off the car with in seconds, what is it even holding on to? its just a foaming rinse really then a clinging factor

you don't like you're cannon?

awesome thread. good point made above by Ubetit.
i'm torn between the good 'ol gilmor and the foam cannon. looking for some good opinions here.

i plan on getting one of those little cheap pressure washers soon (the kinda that are >200 as i don't have a need for a huge 800 dollar machine)
my pressure washer was $150. Its an electric karcher, i don't need it for industrial or commercial work....its just for cars and it works fine
