I'm making a wand similar to the Lisle Air Genie wand. Could anyone that has one of these please post a pic of the tip. I'd like to see how it's done on the Lisle so I can do something similar.

Are you talking about using this on trail or at home?

@FL_CrackerLife I believe has that kit, or similar. Hopefully he can share some pics of the tip. Just the tip

@Remington This is something for home to hook up to my air compressor
Kind a fingered.
Why dont u just use a pump sprayer and put some good degreaser of your choice, i use the mean green stuff and used zepp. Full strength, the sprayer wand will get in where u want and soak it for 15 min longer (NoHmo) for tuffer crud then hose it down preferably with a pressure washer for best results. Nothing cleans a sxs radiator like this method. Been doing it for years and ive tried both

Good idea, I so have a pump sprayer somewhere that I haven't used for years. Now if I can find it ...
Still want to make an air wand though. It will also be used to blow out air filters (low pressure of course) and other stuff.

I made an air wand years ago (guess I should have patented it, though probably previously invented and prior art even back then). Anyway, took a regular airgun and either press fit or threaded (can't remember which) a 2' aluminum tube to it. Plugged the end and cut a small axial slot with a Dremel small cut-off wheel. Works really well to clean the fluffy weed seeds from the radiators on the Kubota tractor to keep the air conditioner working. Made a second one to fit garden hose.

Similar to what 'm making. Using 1/4 tubing with fitting on the end that will attach to an airgun. Plan on making different wands if I see the need. The screw on couplers will make it easy to change wands.
Also will be used on my Kubota tractor and lots of other machines.
