Alas, the first AN Thai bum gun post of 2025. What a relief, only 24 more to go this year. I've got my coffee ready. Let them rip and drip!

1. Finish your dump.

 

2. Grasp bum gun with your right hand, by the handle, edge yourself to front of your dump bowl.

 

3. Pointing the gun at your burnt plum at about 2 CMs, (Be careful not to press trigger early of all hell breaks loose) squeeze the trigger slowly, (Pressure warning), and allow water to wash your bum., using your left hand , 2 fingers, to gently caress your said burnt plum, (do not take too much pleasure or time doing this), only long enough to clean your butt.

 

4. When happy all your dump is now down the pan, use some tissue to pat your arse dry. Throw the tissue in the receptacle - not down the pan. If there is no tissue, your kecks will dry it for you when you hoist your trousers.

 

5. Redress, flush the toilet, wash your hands - and walk away, happy in your new-found achievement.

 

Job done!

 

 

Or if you're Scottish, jobbie done 😎

otherwise blotting with some toilet paper is the way forward

Or keep a roll of kitchen paper in the loo. More absorbant than Thai loo paper and one sheet is enough.,

Bum gun, luxury. When I was a lad, it was a squat toilet, ie a hole in the ground, with a bucket of water with a label for administrating the water.

We use to dream of toilet paper.

You must have been poor mate - at least we had a ladle, didn't need to use a label!

 

Must admit that my boyhood dreams, although at times, umh, strangely envigorating, never extended to toilet paper!

I always explain it this way- if you got <deleted> on your hands , would you wipe it off or wash it off..? Havnt touched toilet paper for 16 years now! 

 For me 35 years...

 

The OP is a drama queen, not difficult in any way to use, no manual needed, adjust the pressure by pressing trigger on the spray to gain whatever pressure you want, totally simple.

 

Yes for 99.9% of Thai toilets it's cold water. No big deal. Never once heard a Thai or farang person complain about the water being cold. Never hears of a farang wanting hot water.

 

If it's so critical get a plumber in and install a small size water heater, but don't scald yourself.

Then there’s the water pressure. No one warned me it’s set to strip paint off walls!

Wow. No way to warn you. I've never experience a "strip paint off (the) walls" pressure.

Or do you ignore drying and just accept anal leakage as part of your life?

 

To do it properly, you should be using your left hand to wash your anus.

If you dry yourself with tissue, the wet tissue falls to pieces as you use it and sticks in your crack.

 

Absolutely possible, but you need to find some toilet paper that doesn't do this.

How was the first time you had sex? Did you have someone in the room with you to help you find the right place and aim?

 

Most people will have seen some pornography.  Did you watch videos of people using the bum gun before you tried it???

Easy to use that..dont use to much pressure.I had a girl in Bangkok who showed me the way.. actually she had a huge orgasm.under the training.That was fun.

I'm laughing at the "cold water" I was in a place where they have the water tank on the roof pipes running across roof straight down into toilet no one warned me to be careful of burning my nuts off with first few seconds of water makes sense it's nearly 40 degrees outside 

Bum Gun stops you biting your Nails

There is no hope for us when the farang needs instruction on how to use a bum gun

The bum gun is Thailand's most famous inventions

No it isn't.

 

Arnold Cohen, also known as "Mr. Bidet", is credited with inventing the first bidet toilet seat in the mid-20th century. Cohen created the bidet toilet seat to help his aging father and to bring the benefits of the bidet to American bathrooms without taking up extra space. 

 

The bidet, also known as a bum gun, is a handheld nozzle that sprays water and is used for cleaning the genital area, perineum, inner buttocks, and anus. The original bidet was a porcelain bowl of water set into a wooden stand or chair.

I would install one in any house I lived in - Thailand, or overseas.

 

 

Also great for cleaning aircon filters.

 

A good idea.

In order to wash your bottom after toileting, this simply device is extremely cost effective and versatile, also useful for cleaning purpose.

 

It is quite reliable;suits all environment(water quality doesn't matter).

And significantly cheaper than the high-tech stuff below.

 

Auto shower may fail  in the area of hard water(with higher mineral contents); its duct may be eventually clogged(by the buildup of sediments inside).

Bum gun doesn't have to be squeezed all the way to the end, and on the wall, there is usually a valve where you can set the pressure of it. But you can also set the pressure on the handle itself.

You beat me to it. Just turn the tap on the wall down a bit. If no tap, just press less hard.

I hadn't. No internet in my early days and real porn was hard to come by- that was 20 years later. I wish I had been able to see porn as I would have had a few clues about what to do.

Don't bother drying - mostly in Thailand it's hot enough not to bother - I just stand  up and put the trolleys and strides back on 😂

You could shake yer bootie a bit first of course......

You got that right. Never had any paper in the toilets I used, except in hotels. Dry fast enough in the heat.

 

Here's a tip. have a dump before a shower then you do get dried all over after.

And it is advisable to inspect the paper for any signs of blood in the stool.

Why do they call him Trigger? Does he carry a gun.

 

Nah, it's because he looks like a horse.

Hehe i use mine to clean the pool filters. Makes them good for several months...

 

 

Using the bum gun has gotten my butt on fire on occasion. spraying to much pressure can and will remove some soft tissue if you are not careful the direction and pressure. Whatever you do, don't point it straight up into your butt haha... you will surely be screaming for a while. 

Get a Japanese wc with fine controls of bum gun ,very gentle 

What a joke! And, too much foolish chit chat & nutty perspectives. Who on earth needs instructions for this? It's there; you use it. Job done. Sheesh!

I think we'd better leave there going   (Think I need a new broom 🤣)

If the OP is so green he can't figure out the butt sprayer, someone better tell him about Thai women with testicles  🙄

Honestly guys you night have warned me !

So... I recently encountered what I now know as a bum gun for the first time. You know, that seemingly harmless little sprayer hanging by the toilet?

Yeah, well, harmless it is not.!

First, I had no idea how to use this thing, to I go in from the front or from behind. Spoiler alert: both ways felt wrong and there were no diagrams or instructions. I first thought it was for cleaning the floor, like a hose pipe or something.

 

Then there’s the water pressure. No one warned me it’s set to strip paint off walls! The second I squeezed the trigger, I nearly flew off the seat like a low-budget space launch. And let’s not even talk about the shock of cold water—no amount of mental preparation could have saved me from that wake-up call.

 

Anyway, seasoned veterans of the bum gun, I’m begging for your wisdom. What’s the correct technique here? How do you avoids not ending up taking shower!,

And is there a way to adjust the pressure so I don’t need a recovery period afterward?

Give a guy a hand here.I can't be the only one that's had this shock encounter when arriving here?

 

So what other little gems do I need to watch out for here?

100 %.  I was thinking, if someone is challenged by these simple matters, there's a thread topic of some dude asking if he should grow a beard...Maybe the dude with a bum gun question should connect with the beard question dude.
