Decided to give the car a wash today, but this is as far as I got before the heavens unleashed a mixture of hail and torrential rain. At least all the snow foam was washed off though!
Until the next sunny day...

What snow foam did you use? I’m currently using Bilt Hamber Auto Foam. It doesn’t foam up very well but works a treat

I’ve used Autoglym Polar Blast and it’s very good. I used 100ml to 500ml of water as recommended but next time will try 70ml to 500ml. The foam was so dense that after washing in the afternoon the foam was still on the drive at 11pm.

Hi there - it was Autobrite Magifoam, which gets some really good reviews!
You can also get it the Autobrite Lance, which is also a sturdy piece of kit! Not the best shots, bust just hosed down late today and dried off, ready for waxing at some stage!
