So if I have bugs etc stuck to the front of my car, and the car is generally a little dirty, will using a snow foam and lancer mean I dont need to wash with a mitt and rinse etc?

All I need to do is snow foam the car, rinse, then dry?

Why does it have to be ph neutral guys?

it doesn't have to be... but it is kinder to the fishes and the paintwork (non-acidic/alkali - corrosive)

it won't replace your 2BW completely... but you could use it midweek... you still need the agitation for your 'proper' wash to shift heavy/baked on contamination

I have a Karcher K7.85 and the cyc lance, now using PH neutral snowfoam mixed depending on what I am doing. The Mini one had a good dollop of CG strong wash in there to clear up as it had not been waxed before.
I always Foam twice and then do the 2BM and a rinse with RO DI water :)
