For the tips: You definitely don’t need anything fancy at all. Just need the right size, cause tips are considered disposable anyway.
Cheap tips work just as well as expensive ones. Only reason to get an expensive one is if you want the ones that have a rubber boot.
Spray gun: yes, Get a stubby spray gun
And get quick connects as they make your life a ton easier.
My personal setup is pretty upper-tier.
I have an MTM spray gun, a MJJC foam cannon, an Adams hose (cause Active pressure washers don’t do well with Uberflex hoses), a DI system, quick connects on everything, a Leaf Blower and stubby nozzle…the whole 9
I say that cause for anyone reading, don’t feel you have to go with the most expensive high end stuff….whether it be the spray gun or the foam cannon, while a $30-40 piece vs $80-100 piece will have some compromises … if you’re a weekend warrior spending one day a month washing your car, the cheaper priced stuff will work just as well.
Knowing what I know, and trying cheaper stuff that I’ve then recommended to family/friends, unless you want / have a need for top tier, you can definitely save some money and use it for better things. $50 here or there on a few items, and all of a sudden that’s an extra $150 that you could’ve kept either for less out of pocket cost or for upgrading something more beneficial like going let’s say from a $200 Greenworks to a $350 Active pressure washer, or buying a DI water system.
