Hello all,   

Looking g fir some help or pointing to a parts source.  I have seen many YouTube videos  with people doing  a softwash  and they are carrying around    a 20L barrel and  spraying  direct from the barrel with I assume some sort of siphon device.

What would that be?   

I'm a keen DIYer  and there must be a better way than just  premixing and using  a pressure sprayer!

Thanks for any help !!

That will be an x-jet - it mix’s in the nozzle you get various inserts to have different strengths but tbh I only ever used the max strength mixture.

If you diy you can put a chemical injector on the end of the lance  put a qr on it for quick change and a female 1/4 qr after so you can have different nozzles










The above was done this way - cost effective - instant - quick to set up and use
