Should be ok...probably better looking for valetpro ph neutral or chemical guys no touch. The fact that the one you linked claims to "wax" the car would put me off.

Out of interest why does the 'wax' part put you off?

Cheers

Snow foam is meant to degrease and lift traffic film, if it is leaving behind some kind of coating then it will most likely contain some form of bonding agent. I would be looking for just a plain degreasing foam

If you can get hold of angelwax fast foam you're on to a winner, I swear by it!

 

[CJcupra]

i see your point. I'll probably stay away from that then!

Guess you mean this bad boy...

Go for Valet Pro advanced neutral snow foam. Really impressed with this stuff.

Thanks DMCG. Can't believe the fittings/applicator bottles are nearly £50!

Any tricks of the trade to apply this or is it a case of forking out for the bottle too?

 

[lawrieIbizaMk4]

Fork out for the bottle mate trick of the trade is not to over apply tbh, you should get 4 or 5 applications from one full bottle on the lance

I use it as a pre wash so mi it up and apply through a pump sprayer an let it dwell before rinsing. Removes around 70-80% of dirt before the car is touched.

As an alternative to foam. Pre wash sprays are very good. Autofinesse do one called citrus power, the collage above is from an identical product

Legend info! I'll give this a google. Thanks buddy! Making my life easier I can assure you ha

Good shots those. The Auto Finesse citrus power is good but extremely expensive at only 2-3 uses per bottle. If you go for the ansf a 15 pound 5 litre container will concentrate for months and months.

I get 5 litres for £5 exactly the same stuff, different sticker on the bottle

i stick with the valetpro stuff, you want a ph neutral foam so it doesnt strip the wax

Just purchased the Autofinesse citrus, great stuff! Find yourself using too much of it though.

Yeah for the price of the AF branded stuff you don't get much for your money! If you can get in touch with angelwax uk on the phone/email buy some OMP its the same stuff but cheaper
