ONR in a Pressure Washer

I picked up an AR Blue Clean pressure washer and was planning out my first wash with it this weekend.

Is it possible to use an ONR mixture in the detergent tank? Would be post prewash as I have a foam cannon.

I'm on the fence about picking up an iK pump sprayer if I don't have to. Any further suggestions would be appreciated also

I suppose you could, but don''t see the point. I like ONR because with it I don't have to haul out my pressure washer or even the garden hose.

Be super careful pressuring washing your car...it can cause some serious damage to wheel paint and trim pieces.

I would say no. I don't see the reason. If you get a good foam soap (I find chemical guys honeydew snow foam is excellent) there is no need. After your initial rinse, give the car a good coat of foam. The foam will stick in place and lubricate that dirt off as you wash it away.

Pressure washer I'm using is 2030 PSI.

Should be fine as long as I'm not hitting paint with the <15 degree one right?
