What foam are you men or ladies using. What is the best to use. Washed with harvested rainwater from a but with a Karcher. Can't use tap water here in Leamington. We don't even drink it unless filtered.

I could do a group buy some snow foam if there is interest? :-)

I'm using Aqua Gleam for filtering.

The washer itself isn't the thing, so long as it has a nice strong pump, it's the foam lance and chemicals used that does the work. I use a Karcher foam lance and it's not as good as I'd hoped but does the job.

OK folks so ordered from Polished bliss a 3.8ltrs of Hyper-Wash to use with my Karcher foam lance together with dispenser and large microfiber towel. So off I go and give the car a spray of nice clean filtered rainwater and treat the wheels. I then give a good cover of snow foam leave for a few minutes spray again with clean rainwater again. My questions are:
I just towel dry and leave.
Should I like some suggest hand wash again.
It looks mint so why wash again.
I foam wash once a week.
What am I not doing and what should I be doing.

I am considering paying for the car to have the paintwork treated professionally.
I have owned many vehicles and the paintwork on this one seem very good.
Any advice welcome.

Here is a tiny how too, power wash, snow foam, power wash, snow foam each pannel and wash using two bucket method, use the tap or watering can to rinse, spray car and waffle weave towel with quick detailing spray and pat dry.

I snow foam then power wash, surely power wash before snow foaming will mean the foam doesn't get a chance to do its stuff?
