As above.

Quite like the idea of magifoam and stuff.

Does it have to be used with a pressure washer?
If so what washers suit and and recommendations

New to keeping my car clean lol but could use this on my bike now too

Cheers

I used to use snow foam the one you mention above. I found it to not really be very good and just caused a mess. looked like it had snowed over my drive. Then when you wash it of you will find it run down the road and look a mess and you start getting funny looks lol. I now use G101 as a pre wash.

Thanks for the feedback

I like the idea of the foam stuff, but if it isn't so good may not bother. You got any more info on it?

Cheers bud

There was a massive who har on detailing world. All the pros admited they only used it for show (part of a bespoke package from a good detailer includes pics) its used to remove as much grim as possible before you use your wash mit but an APC like autsmart g101 does a better job.

Something to consider then will have a look. Cheers

I like how that looks with the foam - picture opportunities also lol

How do you find your results John?

By all means im not saying its crap. I just find it easier and just as good if not better results from spraying with g101 and pw it all off. Saves connecting and disconecting the foam lance.

Yeah seems reasonable to be fair. I don't own a pressure washer yet anyway will need to buy it all anyway just need to figure out if it's worth it or not I guess.
Car could do with mopping as it is

Seems fair. Think I need to buy both and learn to keep the car clean

Anyone on here in the Wiltshire area mop?
