Foamed wax is produced and sprayed onto automobiles following the washing thereof by automatic washing apparatus. Liquid wax is combined with a foaming agent, water and air to form a foamed wax which can be conveniently dispersed by conventional automatic car washing equipment, resulting in an improved shine and more complete drying of the surface.
A spray system, including a nozzle unit composed of a pair of plates facing each other, plural spraying nozzles provided on the plates and a distribution manifold having plural chambers. A branch outlet of each chamber is interconnected to a spraying nozzle through a tube. A plurality of atomizers are mounted on a manifold base supported by a supporting member. The nozzle unit is held by jointing the manifold to the manifold base through a joint in a detachable manner. Different kinds of mold release agents, and an antiseize device or water is supplied to each atomizer and each atomizer is connected to a corresponding chamber.
Brushes and sprays wash and rinse cars and foam wax then is sprayed on the cars and is buffed by a top brush and side brushes, immediately after which a sealing wax in an aqueous solution is sprayed onto the cars. Then the cars are passed through a blower, which removes the excess aqueous solution.
The present invention is directed to a hand held brush for delivering multiple foamable wash/wax solutions and designed to effectively and aesthetically wax the vehicle which includes a generally hollow elongated shaft having a first end and a second end and a plurality of veins extending thought the shaft, a head connected to the first end of the shaft and having a plurality separate compartments and a plurality of aperture surfaces formed within the head, a first of the compartments communicating with a first of the veins and a first of the aperture surfaces, and a second of the compartments communicating with a second of the veins and a second of the aperture surfaces, and the head further having means connected to the head for aiding application of the foamable wash/wax solutions.
This invention relates to a mobile system for washing vehicles which supplies water at high pressure through a discharge hose to a user-operated spray gun or wand. The mobile washing system contains means to receive water at low pressure from the municipal or domestic well water supply. There is an engine and pump that pressurizes the water received; an onboard sdelf regenerating water softening unit to remove impurities from the wash and rinse water so that washed vehicles may dry virtually spot-free without manual drying; reservoirs for storing a liquid cleaning agent and a liquid wax which can be introduced into the discharge stream under operator control to eliminate the need to manually apply soap or wax; and valves and controls to effectively operate the wash system. All components are mounted on a wheeled cart which can be easily rolled from vehicle to vehicle by the operator or rolled to a convenient washing location. The water softening system is such that is may be regenerated by the user as required, eliminating both the expense of returning the mineral tank to the manufacturer and the frequenct, lengthly periods of unavailability.
The present invention is directed to a manifold which includes a foam generating zone having means for receiving a foamable solution and air therethrough to produce a foam, a streaming discharge zone wherein the streaming discharge zone includes a first plurality of aperture surfaces of a first diameter and a second plurality of aperture surfaces of a second diameter larger than said first diameter and a buffer zone operably communicably associated with the foam generating zone and streaming discharge zone with means for impeding flow of the foam therebetween.
