Top tip:

Although the unit looks great in matte black PETG, you could get creative with color coding to easily know which product is inside ;-)

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

The IK Foam Pro 2+ is a manual handpump that foams car cleaning products. The IK FP2+ comes with a compressed air connector in the box.

Find the IK FP2+ here:

or

Combine the IK FP2+ with the Mi Mijia 2 Portable Electric Air Compressor to make this a battery powered unit and make life so much easier!

UPDATE 1: Battery Plug

When not in use and the hose detached, the MM2 switches off after a few minutes and the buttons go dead. In that case there was nothing much you could do but:

  • disconnect the MM2 hose from the FP2+
  • Reinsert and then pull the hose back out of your MM2 to restart it / wake it up
  • reconnect your MM2 hose to the FP2+

…which was an annoying thing to do with soapy fingers!

So I made version 2 which has a MM2 Plug, modeled after the battery hose nozzle, so you can keep your MM2 connected to the bottle and just use the MM2 Plug for the above procedure! Yay!

The MM2 Plug also has a tiny hole on the top so you can tie it to your MM2 hose using a strand of fishing line / string. Never lose that little thing ;-)

Two versions of the Plug: one with and one without an internal reinforcing screw (M3x40mm). Just be gentle when inserting the screw near the end of the print so you don't topple it!

UPDATE 2: Battery Plug Holder

The v2 Battery holder that sits on the bottle has an added hole to insert the MM2 Plug when not in use. Nice and tidy.

UPDATE 3: Integrated spares

Integrated in the FP2+ handle connector are now 3 holes to store 2 spare nozzles and a stack of 4 white filters.
