66Mustang said:@WelshBlue I'd be interested to hear how well you find the Snow Foam actually works. I assumed it was just a fun novelty and I was told you need to use it like twice a week, it doesn't work on a heavily dirty car, is that right?
I use snow foam ... let it sit, rinse off ... snow foam again, agitate it with a wash mitt, rinse off and the car is gleaming. Giving it a monthly spray of Graphene wax monthly helps ... leaves the paintwork like glass so everything slides off much more easily. A bit of a pain on wet days ... water just slides off and soaks you when you open the door
As for twice a week ... nah I do mine every 7/10 days and living in the countryside this time of year, tractors, mud on the roads etc the foam does a great job. Certyainly speeds things up when you hate car washing lol1 -

My Dad got the go ahead to buy a pressure washer for work so we tested it on my car ... wow washing a car is so much easier, we must have been in the 20th century using a bucket and sponge ... it even came with an attachment with a bottle to pour shampoo in to create foam to spray all over the car. We used concentrated shampoo and it gets through it really quickly so I am guessing you can maybe dilute it or buy something designed for pressure washers, because it's quite wasteful using regular shampoo but we were just testing it out
Overall, very impressed!!!!3 -

Bought a new elephant lamp for my living room, looks really good. I'm currently decorating my whole flat and buying little bits here and there (as don't have too much spare money). Once I have done the living room which is coming on nicely now I am going to do bathroom Nautical themed, and then my bedroom space themed.

@66Mustang ... game changers aren't they
You need a dedicated snow foam ... something like this
https://www.halfords.com/motoring/car-cleaning/car-shampoo/autoglym-polar-blast-snow-foam-2.5l-575784.html
I think the dilution rate is 1 part product to 5 parts water on the Polar Blast ... eg 150ml of snow foam to 750ml of water in the detergent bottle or a dedicated snow foam lance - more than enough to clean a car twice. Some of the higher end products are more expensive but have a ratio of 1:10 so equals out. Stay away from pre-diluted ... false economy and like cats pee
One thing I've learned ... all washers are not universal - fittings for hoses etc. I was lucky to get parts to adapt mine from AliExpress ... my brother has an adapter araldited on ... what can go wrong when you're playing with 2000 psi lol I've found him the right part now but he lives 40 miles away so can take his chances until i see him ...
On topic: I've bought some stone effect spray paint to revamp plastic planters ... looks good on videos, hopefully emulated in real life
