Our old neighbour used to wash his car at least once a week, always sprayed the crap off his own car and onto ours, so every time I had the pressure washer out I made a point of spraying everything back onto his. I don't think the car has been washed since they moved, about five years ago.but other will spend more time and products on cleaning their cars then a whole house and themselves lol
but I wonder if anyone has one (and can point me at it) which works (adequately) just powered by a garden hose?
All the ones I’ve seen have a venturi that draws additional air in to create the foam effectively. At low water velocity they don’t work well. They also don’t work well with standard tfr, you need a high foaming detergent to generate the thick foam that clings to vertical surfaces.I guess that the best Snowfoam appliers are the ones working from a power-washer, but I wonder if anyone has one (and can point me at it) which works (adequately) just powered by a garden hose?
Yep, that's the stuff I use in an Aldi 7 quid pump up sprayer.If you don't want to use a pressure washer, have a look at Bilt Hamber auto foam. Can be mixed up in a sprayer. Doesn't 'foam' much at all, but has very good cleaning power. Something cheaper would be the no nonsense water based degrease from screw fix. Again, no foam but excellent cleaning power.. Washing cars is a big hobby of mine
You mean like those extra foamy pink rainbow raspberry flavoured foamsYep, that's the stuff I use in an Aldi 7 quid pump up sprayer.
Looks useless compared to those that foam up massively - but works very well, as plenty of other people on car forums seem to think too. For the three times a decade I wash a car, I like it.
Tar and glue remover, bit different to snow foamYou can buy aerosol cans of it.
I don't know what's it's called but it is amazing gear. One of the lorry's had a black tipper with white sides from tar running out the gaps. The tar was a couple of mm thick. Spray this stuff on and was back to white looked like a new lorry
