Best Car Soap for Foam Cannons – Top Picks & Pro Tips
Not all foam cannon soaps are created equal. Some barely sud, while others deliver a rich blanket of foam that clings, cleans, and impresses. Let's break down the best soaps for foam cannons, how to use them properly, and why The Super Soaper beats them all.
🚿 What Makes a Soap Great for Foam Cannons?
- High surfactant content: For thick, clingy foam that doesn’t run off instantly
- Lubrication: To reduce the chance of scratching during wash
- Concentration: A little should go a long way
- Versatility: Works in foam cannon, bucket, or pump sprayer
