Snow Foam

[N16SHP]

Not worth the money Col for the dealer applied stuff. Much better taking it home and giving it a good polish and couple of coats of good wax yourself

What Craig said. I picked up my new Countryman on Friday and told them under no circumstance touch the car when it comes in. Spent 5 hours on Saturday stripping it and putting my own stuff on. They tried to flog me the Superguard stuff, but I have to question a car care product that still has a sponge in it's care kit. Only thing I'd use a sponge for is to put my tyre gel on!

When you use snow foam, and see the dirt just running off the car before you've hosed it, it's totally worth it

Oh, totally forgot about the snow-foam part! I wish I had one :(

Ahem Neil...photographic evidence?! Want to see this shiny new car of yours!

So saying as your back in here - When is the MINI arriving?

Oooooh check out the weegie poirot! 😁 Second week in March methinks but waiting for a delivery date. 😁

I've been thinking about this myself, looked at buying:

With:

The Meguiars seems expensive against the others (£30 vs £15) - But i'm drawn to the name, i really like Meguiars products, so i'm going with what i know, unless anyone has any other suggestions??

That lance is the same one I've been using for about 4 years now. Still works a treat and it's used regularly over the winter months. Never used the Megs Hyperwash so can't comment on that. I used to use Super Snow Foam but recently I bought a few litres of the Auto Smart stuff from Craig. Works very well and although Craig doesn't seem to be getting a real foamy foam from it, I am. Very happy with lance and foam.

Col, to use the lance you'll need a half decent power washer. Or am I stating the bleedin' obvious?

Always best to be sure I'm not being a dumplin' mate. On this occasion I wasn't being a plum though as it was really the cost of the pressure washer that is pushing this into the "is it worth it" box.

We've opted for a Countryman so that we can fit the new pooch in it. Black SD All4 with far too many options ticked for my wallet to be at all happy with me! WOO HOO

I would never get Supaguard again! I got it on my current Z4 but the dealer didn't do a great job of applying. When looking to arrange to get it reapplied it was getting to be a bit of a faff so the dealer said "Would you like us just to send you up the application kit?" Thanks very much says I! You can imagine my horror when a sponge arrived in the post. The instructions on the sponge read "Pierce internal pouch and apply product to vehicle" or similar, so basically the product is provided in a pouch inside a scratch provider for ease of application...horrifying!

Will be checking out how Autoglym product is applied first...

I should just have them deliver it to you Neil mate!

I've got the Hyperwash and use it for the touch wash, you will still get a foam but not to sure what it would be like. I've always just used the HW for just the bucket touch washing and always had a dedicated foam for the lance.

Tim at cleanyour car has always given great service.
