Our take
The important detail is buried in both Chemical Guys listings and it decides which one you want: this ten-piece kit uses a foam gun that screws onto a garden hose. The sixteen-piece Arsenal kit uses a foam cannon that requires a pressure washer. If you do not own a pressure washer, the more expensive kit is largely useless to you and this is the one to buy. It also includes the grit guard for the bucket, which is the single item in the box that actually prevents swirl marks. Same 4.7 rating as the larger kit, on twice the reviews.
Best for: Washing on a driveway with nothing but a garden hose
What works
- Foam gun runs off a garden hose, no pressure washer needed
- Grit guard included, the part that prevents swirls
- 4.7 on 11,334 ratings, the largest sample in the category
What doesn't
- Foam is thinner than a pressure washer cannon produces
- $99.99 is a lot for soap and a bucket
- 13.92 lb boxed, needs shelf space
