car was all covered in snow......

[Fraz]

....foam

with the weather a bit better the last few days, managed last week to get a start on cleaning the car. So tried out the no touch method ...snow foam as its called...no idea why








then got the wheels to bleed




and after doing all the polish it was looking not that bad

[Callyman]

So do you just spray it on then wait...then rinse Fraz?

Seems a good idea.......

[Fraz]

yup you cover the car in thensnow foam and the dirt just falls off...PROVIDED you have some wax on the car already. It won't remove everything but I wish I had taking a picture of the dirt dripping off with the foam ...but it does get rid off all the dust that is settling on the car

[Callyman]

mmm, I might have to invest in this kit, as mine has alot of swirling already.

any link as where to buy?

Don't use it, If it dissolves dirt,what do you think it does to the paint?
They use this foam to wash the bus's where I used to work and after a while they require painting!
Essentially a mild T-cut everytime you wash the car

really are you sure?? or are you not talking about traffic film remover which is what they do use on lorries and fleet bus's..., this is PH balanced and wont even remove the wax on the car ....dont believe me come over and see it working
