Foam baths are so fun to do. My only issue is I don’t have the short pressure washer wand so the foam cannon sits about a foot away from the handle causing some difficulty holding a full cannon as I foam it.

Looks a little on the watery side but the car isn’t all that dirty so doesn’t really need the foam to cling as much.

I love my little snow foam lances.

I shot it with the water before shooting it with the soap. That is why it is wet before.

Same. Mine is far away, causes a “mis-balance” issue.

No. As in the foam coming out seems watery.

This is one of the reasons I hate not having a garden. Man, I’d be foaming up my car every weekend if I had the space. I’d be Svends Dutch brother from another mother.

My dad just picked up a pressure washer that has been in my Grandmother’s basement for who knows how long. I’m quite excited to get a foam lance.

I really takes some experimenting with different mixes and soaps to get this right. The closest I’ve come to what I have seen is videos is Chemical Guys Mr. Pink with just a little water in it.

What’s your go to soap/mix for the foamers?

I have Gtechniq W4 Citrus Snow Foam for a dedicated cleaning foam but I tend to use Gtechniq Gwash as simply a prewash (one inch product, with just over half a litre of water, dial on top to full or near right hand clock, front nozzle set to full fan). Then after a good rinse I dial it back from half to three quarter anti clockwise for a more watery foam for the two bucket wash.

My other snow foam lance I use for applying CarPro Hydro2Foam which is a lance applied sealant (which can also be used as a shampoo), then pressure rinsed.
