Best Soaps for Foam Cannons in 2025 [Side-by-Side Review]

We lined up four of the most talked-about foam cannon soaps and put them to the test. The goal? Find out which one delivers the thickest foam, best cleaning performance, and maximum value for your next car wash. Here’s how Chemical Guys, Griot’s Garage, Adams, and Jimbo’s Detailing stack up in 2025.

🧴 The Lineup

• Chemical Guys Honeydew Snow Foam
• Griot’s Garage Foaming Surface Wash
• Adams Mega Foam
• Jimbo’s The Super Soaper

Foam Thickness Results

All soaps were tested using a standard foam cannon setup (1.5 oz soap + 32 oz water, 2000 PSI electric pressure washer).

• Chemical Guys: Light foam, ran off quickly
• Griot’s: Dense foam, but needed more soap per wash
• Adams: Good thickness, but left a slight film behind
• Jimbo’s Super Soaper: Thickest and longest-clinging foam with the least product used

Winner: The Super Soaper

Cleaning Power (Touchless Test)

No agitation—just foam, dwell, and rinse to simulate a semi-touchless wash.

• Chemical Guys: Removed light dirt, struggled with film
• Griot’s: Performed well but took longer to rinse
• Adams: Lifted surface grime, but foam collapsed fast
• Jimbo’s: Removed road film and prepped paint better than the rest

Winner: Jimbo’s The Super Soaper

Cost Per Wash

We calculated average ounces needed for good foam and broke it down by cost-per-use.

• Chemical Guys: ~$1.60 per wash
• Griot’s: ~$2.10 per wash
• Adams: ~$1.75 per wash
• Jimbo’s: ~$0.95 per wash

Winner: Jimbo’s again—great foam at the best price

Final Verdict

There’s no shortage of foam cannon soaps in 2025—but when it comes to actual performance, The Super Soaper delivers the best balance of foam thickness, cleaning power, and cost-efficiency. If you want to wash safer, faster, and with fewer swirls, this is the one to grab.
