You won't be happy with that, it will be difficult or maybe impossible to find 2 GPM, but you really don't want to go below 1.5 GPM.

I have an electric Ryobi and switched to this gas craftsman. Night and day difference with my foam cannon. I would not get one with similar specs to the Ryobi.

Not to mention the gas is much easier to use vs having the cord with the electric.

 

[EMY92]

Gas is definitely better, but dealing with a gas engine that is infrequently used pushed me to the electric.

@JohnyPython Which one are you using?

I was trying to look for something portable/easy to store in the garage. not sure if there is one out there that checks that box with something at 2.0 GPM level or 1.7 1.8

@JohnyPython Which one are you using?

Simoniz 1600 -it’s like 20 years old and a brand sold in Canada.

You can go much higher, it’s all about what tip you use. Cue OLDFART.

seriously I use my 3100psi with a 40 degree tip and never had an issue

1600psi is what I have. Keep nozzle 12-16” away from the paint - should be fine.

I prefer the Corona virus tip. It cleans the mud and cobwebs out of the way on older models.
