harbor freight foam cannon, what soap to use
I recently bought the Harbor Freight electric pressure washer and watched the Youtube on the Harbor Freight foam cannon, both are pretty decent set-ups for home washing.
I have the QD disconnector so the Foam Cannon clicks right onto the pressure washer easily and should work great.
The question I have is what commercially available retail soap should I start with that is available at local places like O'Reillys or even a Walmart that will suds up and clean My C-8.
I have the wash mitts and plenty of detail rags and polish, I mainly want the pressure washer to blast off the wheels for brake dust.
I even have the leaf blowers and everything, just want to blast a nice thick layer of foam all over My beauty and watch the crud come off.
I have car wax concentrate as well as Super clean but I want to go easy on the car, it is new so nothing too strong.
Thanks in advance, I know there is dozens of types available.

Adam's Mega Foam should be commercially available especially at automotive specialty shops. You just reminded me I need to order the gallon refill (more cost effective than the little spray bottle that came included with my Adam's Foam Cannon).

Harbor Freight also has Meguires soap for pressure washers and is what I use.

I typically use Chemical Guys - Mr. Pink - seems to work pretty well. I've used Meguiars and while it worked - it seemed to take significantly more effort to rinse it off the car - maybe I mixed it too strong...

The choices are nearly endless. Adam's, Griot's Maguiar's, Chemical Guys, on and on and on. .. ..
While I have a foam gun, but not a cannon, I really like both Griot's Foaming Car Wash, and Adam's Graphene Car Shampoo, but the decision is yours. Hard to go wrong.

Lots of choices. I've found good reviews of, and had good results with, Chemical Guys Honeydew Snowfoam.

Been using Maguiars hyper-wash. Good foaming with a cannon and excellent lubricity. Don't need much to do the car. Also good in a bucket.
