Bought a pressure washer and snow foam lance :)

Power Maxed doesn't - states it on the link that it won't strip wax or sealant.

EDIT: forgot to add, I started using it after a review in Detailing World (link) where it got some pretty impressive results,

That's my review there Mark and I've yet to find another product with the same cleaning ability as this once diluted.

Completely wax/sealant safe when used at a ratio of 9:1 and over.

I gave up on snow foam after using this PM TFR. It's quality stuff indeed.

Great these Nilfisks. I have a E130 with hose reel also but have upgraded to a rubber hose which makes using it so much easier. 15m was about £70 do not cheap, but well worth it, especially in the winter.

Hi srhutch - where did you get the rubber hose from and do you wrap it on the hose reel?? thx

 

[RickRob]

I don't really see the point of snow foaming as after I've done it I still wash the car as I would have without the foam! I'm trying to convince myself that it helps by dissolving some of the dirt, but I'm not so sure. Am I doing something wrong as it still takes me three hours!?

3 hours?? Does that include 2 hours for a nice lunch?

Nice job though.

My E140 came with a 9m rubber hose fitted which is one of the reasons I went for it.

15 minutes you say?

3 hours? To wash a porker?

Would have gave it some Wax sealant but didn't have time and after 5 hours it was looking ok and we were going out.
.

I wish you all lived on my street, Its only ever me outside washing my car for 4-5 hours, getting funny looks from Neighbours who go out and come back with there '£5 hand swirl car wash' and i'm only just reaching for the wax!!

The problem is that if we all lived on the same street nobody would ever get anything done as there's be too much advice and mods going on. That and the wife swapping!

After seeing the great foam coverage, that I've never had before, I bought the same foam and lance yesterday, and they just arrived. Hopefully if the rain/hail/snow weather decides to clear up over the weekend I'll be able to give it a go.

I used 400ml foam and filled to brim with warm water. Hth.

400ml of foam no wonder your foam is thicker than mine, I put an inch of foam in and fill the rest up with warm water.

 

[Ducklakeview]

Typo on phone, it was 200ml, so about 1 1/2"..
