What CFM are you using? The compressor we use put out plenty of PSI, we got best results w/50 PSI
Stand Back, Anthony has the Foamer

I have mine right at 60 psi. The compressor is 5.6 cfm at 40 ( I think 
) It could probably be stronger, but it's working fine as far as foaming goes. I first had the psi at 40 but it wasn't working right, so I cranked it up to 60 and the foam started flyin

That blinking eye
Am I the only one, or does anyone one else feel like sticking there finger in that freaking eyeball and poping it out? Maybe it has something to do with me taking a crap one day in a public restroom and seeing the same blinking eyeball?

First of all if you bought the Foamer from Larry...you paid TOO MUCH...sorry that's neither here nor there but just think people should know you can get the same exact product from other suppliers at MUCH lower prices.
Second...the Foaming Agent from Morgan Gallacher seems to work real well for some in small quantities, Alexy I think uses very little (4oz?) I have used this foaming agent and I need more like a half gallon to get good foam. I have used Dawn (just regular not the foaming kind) and have had decent results...I think I will continue with dawn as I think MG has some batch consistency issues and the additive is way way way expensive after shipping. (Plus the dude has still not returned my call Customer service Sucks) Yeah the SH does attack the dawn surfactant but it is cheap and available at Sams or Costco in 5 gallon pails. My compressor is 5.6 CFM @ 90 PSi and has a 25 gallon tank. I dialed the compressor in at 60 PSI.......I get shaving cream foam with about 3 cups of dawn and SH. I get the same results with about half gallon MG foaming agent and SH....One tip Alexy gave me was...crack open and close real quick the discharge valve to "charge" the line and then you can open the ball valve all the way and start a foamin......I still need a zero tip on my wand for a little better directed placement of foam....I also would like to modify and use the gun like some have...mine is from the MFGR and is a wand/ball valve with no zero tip.
These foamers are all over the board...I tend to think altitude might have something to do with it as well....I was talking to Anthony his setting are different them mine then again he is usually 3,000 to 8,000 feet higher than I am at any given time.

Thanks Ron... That's taken after being up for about 26 hours straight. I was tired!
Foaming is old hat. I've moved on to other thangs Foam still has it's place in a toolbox, but 95% of the time, it's not used.
