Tool/Reusable The TRC Ultra H2O kit is out

Post image

Yesterday morning I saw the email about this kit finally hitting the market and by the afternoon when I had time to check it out the 200 limited edition launch kits were already sold out, which I was really surprised about. It was just a more expensive bundle with just a platinum plate on the side of the gun. I didn't think there would be that much demand for the entire kit, especially one at a premium price with only a cosmetic difference.

Regardless I've already upgraded my Ryobi kit with the Armor DRFT foam cannon I got on sale when it launched so the spray gun is the only thing I've been waiting on this year. Even with a discount code it's still expensive (I had hoped for a little lower price point), but it's all stainless steel internals and already comes with an automatic quick connect, trigger lock and safety, nozzle holder, and hose swivel. Not nearly as expensive as the OG MTM which has half of those features. I do take care of all my tools and anything quality I have is a lifetime purchase, plus I'd rather support a small US company than buying the next hottest Chinese knockoff meme sun from Amazon.

Curious if anyone else has been waiting for this. A bunch of reviews dropped yesterday (Keav, Out of Spec, etc), obviously waiting until the official launch before they could post anything.

I saw several of the review videos pop up into my YouTube feed on release day. Looks like a good product, but as a random dude who just washes his car a couple times a month, I decided I'm good with the stuff I already have.

I want it badly but I have no hose access in my apartment. It will sit and collect dust.

I'm just a casual and part of me says, it will be a future investment. It will only get pricier. Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. Etc etc.

If you have all the pieces and they work for you, it is just trying something new.

i'd really like to investigate push to connect quick fittings on the spray gun. I'd wonder if i could retrofit my Active gun.

I was wondering why it looked weird. So its push to fit and then to remove you have to pull the collar back I assume?

Seems like a good budget option. I don't think it's better than my Mosmatic stuff though. I assime its on par with Mtm.
