I love this stuff

That's all

 

Know the feeling mate lol

 

I've had my Autobrite HD lance a couple of weeks and have had it out twice. Still a bit of trial and error going on getting my mixture right but boy is it effective especially on a very dirty car

 

I never let my car get very dirty so never seen the point in me getting it, however it does look like good fun

 

im gonna give it a try as just bought a new pressure washer and had a test bottle sitting in my house for a while

 

I can't help but think its a gimmick but I still use it. Looks cool lol

 

its very useful and effective if you use it right....when i clean the 3dr i never have to use a bucket or Mitt.... i rinse the car to soak with water then snowfoam leave it to dwell... then blast off and that includes the underside... then i dry with a garden leaf blower....nothing except water and chemicals have touched the paintwork... cutting the chances of swirls etc accuring.

but then again i suffer with OCD

 

I never let my car get very dirty either it never goes more than a week without a wash or more than around 30-50 miles driving wise without getting washed but since it is white, dirt that gets picked up on the boot and on the side skirts get shifted with ease and leaves you with a good clean base to start washing with a mitt. Like I said only owned the snow foam lance 2 weeks but if you don't let your car get dirty then imo it isn't totally necessary. It does work well on a dirty car as I tried it on the old man's BMW hadn't been washed in maybe about 3 months and was actually impressed at what it lifted off.

 

of course it is... you can wash the car with no form of cantact...read my above post unless i get caught out with the cossie then i never have to use a wash mitt ..... to wash or dry... no cantact is better than contact.

 

Do you get funny looks from people in your road drying it with a leaf blower lol
Fair play if it dose the job but 9 out of 10 people will think what the fuck is he up too

 

not really ive had people stop and say what a brilliant idea...dont forget everyone wants to be a lazy bugger and wants the easiest route

 

I've had someone comment "that's cheating" whilst using the snow foam

 

No contact car wash.

How does the water get on the car?

 

human physical contact you plonker...

 

funnily enough i have aswell

 

Are you sure it wasn't your mrs???

 

real tears here

 

The dude was in his 60's...I'm sure

Although she does think I love the car more than her (she isn't too far wrong )

 

Ha ha quality mate

 

What foam you using mat

I've just started with the stuff off the smart guy but have ordered some mr pink from chemical guys uk

 

I use Espuma Activo. My mate that's a detailed recommended it

 

How thick does it lay and does it stay on the vehicle long

 

It didn't at first. But I just upped the ratio

 

 

I use it every time i wash a car now

Looking good guys !!!!

 

ive got cherry snow foam with wax which hasn't got a brand name on it just a sticker with hazard marking on it and directions on how much to use

not used it yet as waiting to have my outdoor tap fitted

 

I've got some of that as well it's good stuff mate

 

cool, bought it off Ebay for about Ł6 few months ago is only a 1l bottle as a taster before spending more money on the 5l bottles

 

White sticker black writing " auto Rae chem " ?

 

this is it


have to click on the picture to enlarge it

 

Same stuff I have in stick and use a lot... I have the 5L

 

yeah gonna get the 5l bottle later on once this has ran out

 

And it's a neutral foam which is good for certain applications

 

and that would be??????

 

If you just want to wash the car without doing the rest, neutral types wont strip wax etc whereas if you want to do a full job on a car, you want a soap that will strip all layers so you can work your magic and re apply wax/sealant after claying, polishing etc

 

Thats the stuff ive got.It only uses a small amount too.

 

Sounds really good tbh. Its a shame i don't own a car anymore And i doubt i will be snow foaming my scooter

 

i like a bit of snow foam, but it doesn't seem to stay on long.
i've used JWAC and that doesn't seem to stick even with a 30% mix on the bottle.
i'm now trying out valet pro2 stuff, it seems to be better, but again a 30% ratio in the foam bottle doesn't seem to last more than a couple of minutes before it runs down and thins off exposing paint to the air.
just changed pressure washer as the last one was pulsing, only a nilfisk120bar one though.

 

has anyone decided on which is th ebest lance to use then?
and product?

i've wanted to get one for ages but there always seems to be a trade off between what is good one week and what is better/worse the week after
