Product Information

When using a hand-held foamer, you need to use a lower concentration of product than it may state on the bottle.

Have a look at Detailing World for loads more info. Quite a few respected online places sell them - Elite, CleanYourCar both spring to mind. Have a look round. Compared to a standard car wash shampoo, snow foam is designed to be used as a pre-wash solution. This means that it loosens and removes dirt before washing your car with a wash mitt. The purpose of this is that it helps to reduce the chances of introducing swirl marks onto the paint as there will be very little dirt left on the car. One of my favourite options is Valet Pro Citrus, which can be diluted (usually 1 part product to 8 parts water) and is very effective at cleaning whilst still being wax-safe so won’t degrade the protection on the car. Most snow foam bottles will give a recommended dilution ratio based on how much you add to a foam cannon attached to a pressure washer. This accounts for the added dilution of the product when the water from the pressure washer is involved. P.S. it's an idea to keep your pressure washer somewhere that's away from the cold and frost though - they don't like it and I've seen a few just break their compressors in this type of weather. If you can't keep it above outside temps, then maybe move it inside for a few hours before you use it....

Best Snow Foam Overview

A common problem is getting the right consistency when foaming. If it is too diluted (too much water), it will just slide off the car, therefore it won’t set and help to dissolve any dirt making it a pointless exercise. So you have rinsed the car and finished cleaning, job done! However it is important to rinse through and clean the snow foaming lance to ensure it is reedy to use again next time,after each use you should empty the snow foam bottle and rinse out, fill it up with clean water and run again using your pressure washer to clean the filter.

In this article and guide we look at snow foaming, how it works, what it does and how to do it. Snow Foam Lance Before beginning it is better to have the car in a dry state, this stops the foaming from sliding off, so if it has rained or you have already washed down the car it maybe better to leave it to dry before snow foaming. ConsistencyIf the snow foam says on the bottle to put 100ml of product and 900ml of water in a foam cannon, then instead put 10ml of product and 990ml of water in your spray bottle. This will account for the extra dilution that a pressure washer would provide. It’ll certainly help. Cordless pressure washers may struggle here but any mains-operated example should be powerful enough to deliver a consistent coating of snow foam.

The longer you leave the foam in place the more dirt it can pull away from the surface of your car. The condition of your car will determine how long you want to leave the foam on, because dirtier cars may require longer sitting time. If your car does not come away as clean as you expected, you can always apply a second layer. Aftercare Using snow foam is our favourite way of pre-washing your car. Not only does it look like your car has been hit by a blizzard, but it also helps to lift away embedded bits of dirt that regular shampoo sometimes struggles to lift (think bird poo, tree sap and overspray). You don’t even need a particularly powerful pressure washer, a budget pressure washer will still be good enough. Another great alternative which works very well for heavily-soiled vehicles is Bilt Hamber Surfex HD, at a 5% concentration. This is highly alkaline so may degrade any waxes or sealants slightly faster, but it is very effective at cleaning.
