Ryobi Foam Cannon vs Mildew: Slambo Gets a Bath

After Slambo was parked under a tree for a while, mildew did its thing.
The tattooed monkey has a new drone and we needed something to shoot. I said, "Hey it's 50 degrees today, why don't we try the foam cannon on Slambo?"
We didn't take the time to RTM. This is what happened.

Man I used to watch this show religiously

[@jorowi]

Box contents: power washer, power wand, bubble wand, instructions. Throw out the instructions.

[@mpgomatic]

John Wilkerson Yep! I remember seeing the instructions … somewhere …

Good to see you making another video Dan, that stuff cleaned up Slambo pretty well! I really need to clean my daily driver but this winter has been wet and messy.

[@mpgomatic]

Zeal of Sparta Thanks! Spring is just around the corner …

[@pedrofernandez3893]

Slambo deserves a car cover, no?

[@mpgomatic]

pedro fernandez Car covers are for fancy cars! 😆 I’m still dreaming about building a barn.

The HX was built to be light. I think a 10 second car would be particularly easy to do on that. On the other hand, if you are looking to just sell it, i will buy it from you!

Sounds like the cause of your pressure washer 'acting up' was likely the garden-hose(?) feeding your pressure washer. It probably collapsed because of not enough water pressure coming from the faucet, or because the garden hose developed a twist or a kink. Cheap garden hoses and under-sized garden hoses are especially prone to do that! I spent about 15 minutes diagnosing that issue while pressure-washing the north side of my house last year. Worked great for about 15 minutes, then I moved the pressure-washer to do the next section, and it wouldn't spray for more than a second or two. Discovered a small kink had developed in the (cheap vinyl) garden hose when I moved the unit, enough to restrict the water flow into the pressure washer. Kink removed, flow restored!

Restore it to stock! It's rare to see one of those stock.

[@mpgomatic]

Germain Gonzalez Many thanks for the input! It is back to stock now, except for the seats. I might pull the Sparcos out and put the OEM bucket seats back in, with new upholstery.

[@LuckytheAsian]

Glad to see the Civic going strong after all these years! Can’t wait to see what’s in store!

[@dustingilbert4882]

I love your slambo videos!

[@mpgomatic]

Dustin Gilbert Thanks, Dustin!

[@nobreyner60]

I've seen that kind of mildew grow under old clear protective film. No amount of washing will get that off without peeling off the brittle old film.

[@mpgomatic]

NoBreyner60 It’s nasty stuff!

[@jonathangomez3168]

Did you ever try a lightweight flywheel to help increase mpg. In all the research I've done, it's just people arguing back and forth without personal experience.

[@EgHatchK24a2]

Nice video Sir keep up the Honda content

[@_k_rolls_turbo_]

Stock k20/k24 swap budget friendly. In addition u can turbo+build the motor/trans/chassis if u got that $$

[@mpgomatic]

k00lball3r Or we gut it, cage it, and go for broke. 🤪

[@jaceljara5652]

I thought this channel was dead???

[@mpgomatic]

Jacel Jara Not Dead. 🧟‍♂️ Bwahahahaa

[@_k_rolls_turbo_]

[@mpgomatic]

k00lball3r What type of content would you like to see?

[@_k_rolls_turbo_]

@@mpgomatic more mpg reviews like u did years ago when I subscribed plz.

[@mpgomatic]

[@Georgeqaws]

10 second car

[@BruceLee-xp5fc]

That foam cannon doesn’t work that good
