Keav, great review as always! Without handling them and using them, the MTM still looks the best to my eye. The Active is just too bulky in the head. I'd think it would be hard to get around the tires to clean the wheel wells. Which I have to do in the winter after driving in the snow and other gunk. I loved the blooper at the end. I saw the parts fallout and went "Oh shit! How's that go back together?" 🤣

It is bulky for its overall size. A good long nozzle guard like the Mckillians will help get in the wheel well too or my next wacky Amazon review item might help. Stay tuned.

MTM sgs28 meets all my needs. I like the simple tear down without loose parts flying out. The only thing I would improve is the swivel stiffness but it seems to get better with use. The trigger can’t be beat imo

So I've been really enjoying this product. I was a little confused about the click mechanism as well, so I was researching it a bit. I believe the Mosmatic does this too. From what I can understand, and it also makes sense when I try it myself, is that the trigger pull BEFORE the click has a bit of tension and may be good for short accurate bursts, but the ball bearing the with click is when the tension breaks and requires essentially no pulling force to hold the trigger down. After doing it myself, it seems right. All of the tension seems to be before the click happens.

@CarsWithKeav

Жыл бұрын

Agreed on this assumption, but when you hold an SGS28 trigger it requires no tension. Active still after the click requires a little grip to keep it spraying. It’s very minimal In comparison to just about anything out there, but that SGS28 had me spoiled.

@KiranPatel-fk1pg

Жыл бұрын

The weird thing about the Mosmatic is that it sprays before the trigger clicks so the fact it clicks in is somewhat pointless since you can get it to spray by lightly pulling. One thing I will say though is that it's nice to have some resistance, the SGS28 has zero resistance and I found I'd accidentally spray it all the time.

I can help find you the right one, but which spray gun do you have? They have multiple spray guns with different connections. Either way they will not have them in most stores except for maybe Northern Tool. If I can figure out the connection at the end of your gun I can for sure find what you need.

I don’t understand why the 3/8 quick plug of the hose can also rotate, why does the high pressure gun need to rotate inside the gun?

@CarsWithKeav

6 ай бұрын

The quick connect will only rotate up until it’s pressurized then it will barely move and if you move too much it can break the gasket seals. Spinning inside the gun allows it to spin regardless of pressure and makes dealing with heavy hoses way easier.

So your saying the OG Mosimatic gun internals aren't fully stainless? So what you are getting is the internal swivel and internal connector at the top with less stainless for 2X the price? I will just keep my SGS28 then. The one time I dropped gun on the quick connect on the tip side and had by new one from MTM in stainless. Great in depth and honest review as always,

@CarsWithKeav

I hate to say it , but just about all of them tend to have the same type of internals when it comes to the valves and body. Just the swivel, trigger pull, ergonomics and quick connects is where the money is spent for techonology. MTM SGS28 is nickel plated brass for corrosion, but really what are you going to do with the outside of the internals that will corrode? I have dropped my sgs28 a thousand times. I drop it every time I am done spraying and only thing I have replaced is the tip quick connect one time due to wearing out the bearings.

Performance is a vaguely used term sometimes, but from my definition the Mosmatic would not have anymore performance. It might have a better feeling trigger, swivel, fittings, etc. The PSI and Flow will not be any different.
