I believe that part of the cleaning process with the fog gun involves the flow of a high pressure air stream. We sand blast rust off steel with sand particles. With the fog gun we would blast off grime with air molecules. This would be less abrasive than sand on human flesh. After all we don't want to hurt the kids. This air stream would also massage the muscles.

If I remember correctly the air pressures used were in the neighborhood of 150 to 200 pounds per square inch. Its the same principle as high pressure steam cleaners. Think of it as cool-steam cleaning but with miniscule amounts of cooled steam, more like moist air rather than steam.

Now, I'm going to go out on the next foggy day and turn the leaf blower on myself to see if I can really get rid of the dirt, grime, and body oder. Maybe I'll just try the old air compressor out in the garage.

Maybe could all go to London, install some waterproof speakers, and have a Surround Sound Shower. Or is that idea all wet?
