Compressed air pistol Tornade - FullCarX
The Tornade compressed air gun is a pneumatic cleaning tool, intended mainly for the interior maintenance of vehicles. It works by connecting to an air compressor (not supplied) in order to generate a high-pressure airflow, capable of effectively dislodging embedded dirt in hard-to-reach areas.
Tornado air pistol
This type of gun is particularly useful for:
- cleaning carpets, rugs and upholstery fabrics,
- dusting tight corners, joints and nooks,
- blowing debris into vents, carpets, seats, etc.
Operation is based on the “tornado” effect: compressed air is expelled in a swirling manner (vortex effect) to improve cleaning efficiency, by combining air and the product (if used).
The gun comes with:
- the cleaning gun itself,
- a 1 L tank to add a diluted cleaning product,
- a brush head to make mechanical cleaning easier.
👉 Important note: an air compressor is essential to operate this tool.
Directions for use
- Before using the gun, it is recommended to roughly vacuum up the residues (small stones, thick dust) in order to avoid clogging the tool.
- You can add a fabric cleaner or a diluted APC to the tank to enhance the cleaning action.
- The tool can be used on fabrics as well as on plastic surfaces, carpets, air vents, etc., but always with caution on delicate materials.
Technical data
- 📏 Dimensions : approx. 32 × 17 × 13 cm (length × width × height) — compact format for easy handling in the cabin.
- ⚖️ Weight : approx. 0.7 kg, making it light and easy to handle.
- 💨 Operating / outlet pressure : from 6.5 to 9.2 kg (i.e. approx. 6.5 to 9.2 bars), suitable for most home or workshop compressors.
- 🧴 Tank capacity : 1 liter, allowing you to add a cleaning product or a diluted solution for deeper cleaning.
⚙️ The technical principle: compressed air is propelled into the gun’s tube, where it creates a swirling effect that loosens and projects dirt outward. This is what is often called the “tornado” effect, hence the name of the gun.
