    U will need a snow foam lance aswell to fit ur power washer

    It's basically a pre wash that will help remOve grit and dirt from the paint surface and save you pushing that dirt into the paintn creating swirls etc

    It earns you points with the cool kids who "detail" cars. It's a steady slide into a world of vacuuming your carpets into stripey lines and spending £30 on a special dressing for your valve caps that you apply with a special cotton bud

    This basically. I got a lance and some foam and TBH it's 50 quid I could have spent on something useful.

    Possibly of benefit if your car isn't actually dirty before you wash it like most of the cars seem to be on Detailing World.

    It allows the detergent to stay in contact with the dirt for longer which means it soaks in more and has a better chance of lifting it.
    It also stays on for long enough to make it very easy to agitiate it with a microfbire washmit or whatever as well.

    Kind of a gimick in that people on detailiing forums mainly want it for taking pictures of, but it does actually work to a certain extent.

    This is my corsa when my mrs snow foamed it, it does look kind of cool I guess if you are into detailing, which she is but im not.

    As above, you will need a lance too, you cant just buy the snow foam on its own

    its alright buying the lance providing you have the pressure washer in which it will fit, lol

    the pressure washer i have doesnt have a lance that will fit, and im not forking out another £100 for one that will, it is good but not necessary if you already clean your car properly!

    Adaptors are available for most common washers, you normally specify the type of washer adaptor you require at the time you order the foam lance.
