Has anyone used snow foam?
Is it any good?
Any recommendations for a decent make....eBay is full of them!

There are plenty of options although I have the Envy Car Care one that smells on bubblegum....friends have used Auto Brite, Chemical Guys and Auto Finesse equivalent versions. The knack is getting the right percentage of foam dilution and also making sure you leave it just long enough to "dwell" before rinsing off. I suggest you have a look at the Detailing World forum as the members seem to review/compare a lot of products.

I was a bit like that, ended up going for Bilt Hamber Snow Foam, so far so good, seems to make it easier to clean.

Excuse a possible silly question but do you have a foam lance?

I only ask as the chemical dispenser that sometimes comes with a pressure washer won't come close to the result you'll see from a proper foam lance.

^^ Totally agree.
I'm using Valet Pro ph neutral & I'm impressed. Combined with Sonax shampoo I don't need to wax the car for six months or so.

Thanks all.
I went for the autobrite magifoam, and ordered a foam lance at the same time.
We'll see how it goes.

I have never had any luck with snow foam. It does absolutely nothing that a good soaking with water wouldn't have done.
Probably operator error I know.
