Post Mercedes Benz Car Shampoo Mystery

I purchased a couple of MB Car Shampoos. They seem to have been made for a foam cannon of some sort, but I don't see a foam cannon being sold for it, and there are no instructions on the Internet as to how I would dispense the shampoo.
It is tough to get the shampoo out by just quizzing the bottle.

Does anyone know how the shampoo is dispensed?

Thank you

so there ya go.... But where are instructions for this dispensing head?

Maybe you push down on it?
Nope I got it.
Squeeze bottle and it fills the cup around cap to get measured amounts listed on side of cap.
Remove top and pour in bucket and add water per amount of shampoo.

all based on this equal:

Mercedes Car Shampoo - Genuine Mercedes 001986417111 | FCP Euro

Personally I would get something else as seems pricey for something someone else makes for MB

Griots has good car wash and they have the foaming gun type too.

Thank you so much. I will give it a go.
Why does anything German have to be so complicated?!
