I use KR Low PH and triple foam in the Tunnel and Cherry Blossum Foam brush in the SS.

I have bubblers in the tunnel that are more about the Show than the cleaning. This is put on top of the low PH. So, since the bubble capacity is most important what gives the most bubble for the buck? My unscientific opinion after trying the triple Foam, low PH and Cherry Blossum FB is it's the Foam Brush Cherry blossom gives the most bubbles for the buck.

other ideas?

How do you like the foam brush soap? Does it smell good? How is the color? I have been using just white unscented soap for years and am considering using one with scent and color.

Earl,
Wouldn't applying a neutral foam dilute your low ph detergent...possibly reducing it's effectiveness?

What you put through the bubblers depends on what is applied next. I Believe using a conditioning or slightly low ph is used in triple foam and bubblers, as it conditions for the Rain X or something similar. The conditioning foams would probably be easier to rinse off than a foamy brush.

Earl,

Certainly anything will dilute something. I think any dilution is nominal because Low ph pre Soak is applied first with Flo Jet at about 40 PSI, For single foam stick locations I have Low PH Soap, Triple Foam sticks have regular triple foam. All cloth feeds ad low PH to the water supply.

The Bubbler has the flo jet at 10psi, so the volume of liquid is very low and without any scientific basis for this whatsoever it seems as though the bubbles make it sit on top opf the low ph stuff.

I have a pretty good volume of cleaning material. 2-3 pieces clenaing tops, double wraps and lower details. So, dilution is not a real concern.
