Flex Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Did you feel a bit naughty when squirting the foam everywhere? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-350 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) I got a foam lance for Christmas too! If your not getting a good foam then use my method as I get REALLY thick foam! Turn the dial on the top of the foam lance all the way clockwise, then turn it back a touch. Fill the bottle up with an inch of snowfoam, a squirt of shampoo and the rest with warm water! Make sure the nozzle is OPEN all the way! I have fantasic results with mega thick foam! Edited January 9, 2013 by Dave-350 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boys and there toys! Avalanche doesn't foam as well as others but it does shift a lot of dirt - it's more sudsy than foamy - great stuff in terms of performance though.

Diab2005 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hahaha great response. To be fair I got some stuff off amazon which had great reviews and was £20 for 5l when I got it the jug wasn't labelled and could have been soap in water for all I know!!! When turning the Nozzle all it seemed to do was alter the angle of spray rather than width??? Ive read places that it depends alot on the type of snow foam you get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive read places that it depends alot on the type of snow foam you get Pop me a PM, I will tell you the stuff I use. I've used it all in the past and the setup I have atm is brilliant! When I get home ill write down all the agents I use. The snow foam makes a difference of course, but it also helps putting a drop of shampoo in to the bottle. I use Megs' new shampoo, its lime green. Don't use the Gold class its @*!#. But the NXT shampoo is a great cleaning/foaming shampoo too! The snow foam I use is Valet Pro snow foam.

stuarty Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'd like a snow foam lance, do you need a presseure washer or is there one's that you can use with a garden hose. Also how much are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-350 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) I'd like a snow foam lance, do you need a presseure washer or is there one's that you can use with a garden hose. Also how much are they? Yes ideally you need a pressure washer. Ideally again, you need a karcher or check to see what fitments are available for the foam lances. You can get a foam lance that works on a garden hose, but I dont know if its any good. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washing-and-drying/super-spray-hose-end-sprayer/prod_335.html http://www.cleanyour...s/prod_371.html Edited January 10, 2013 by Dave-350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam1942 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 ^ get yourself a 30 meter hose extension for the Karcher and leave it in place in the garage/shed whatever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diab2005 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 I use born to be mild dodo juice and this was the foam http://www.amazon.co...8186492&sr=1-1.
