Detailing equipment
A detailing keg is a portable, refillable sprayer built from a 5-gallon ball lock keg. The keg holds water or wash solution, a liquid disconnect feeds a 12V on-demand pump, and the pump feeds a trigger gun with an adjustable tip. People use one for mobile detailing, a rinseless or waterless wash, a spot rinse, or a pre-soak where a hose will not reach. These picks are the parts for that build. The DIY detailing keg guide explains how they fit together. Follow the ratings on the pump listing and the keg listing.
