snow foam is what you want :afro:

try www.elitecarcare.co.uk

do you have the Autobrite Foam Lance or the little Karcher Bottle??

if its the Foam Lance put in about 1.5cm of snowfoam and fill the rest with WARM water; shake it a bit and away you go  :smiley:

same applies to the Karcher bottle but obviously less product is needed and it wont produce as much foam:

Here's what i can get from the Foam Lance:

thanks rhyso thats helped!
ive got the side attachment karcher which is a container with a small tube. if that makes sense.

i used some megs next in it to see how it was, but i think snow foam is the way to go.

thanks mate

i know the one you mean; in fact, thinking about it, i think we got the same pressure washer lol!! 

The Karcher bottle won't produce the amount of foam as the lance but it does a fairly decent job  :smiley:
