People's views on this....
« on: 18 February 2011, 11:20 »
I know that Snow Foam lances have been done to death, but i've had a search on here and can't find anything about this particular one.

I was having a browse on ebay and came across this Karcher Lance. It is a lot cheaper than most others on there, but it is also smaller. Does it look ok to people or should it be avoided? :undecided:

Cheers

interesting find Dom but tbh i dont think it will cut the mustard unless its internal design is similar to the proper snow foam guns may be wrong though, to me it just looks like the foam bottle ive got on my stihl and nilfisk pressure washer, they do foam to a point but they dont produce thick foam of a shaving foam consistancy.

i'll have a browse on DW and see if theres any reviews on it

Autobrite lance is probably the way to go, I got mine off eBay & cannot fault it! It's about £50 tho but you only get what you pay for ;)

I've already got a Karcher pressure washer, so would need a Karcher lance really :smiley:

@ Purple Haze, any info you can find would be appreciated :smiley:

You specify the adaptor with the lance depending on what pressure washer you have  :wink:

I've had the Autobrite lance for approx 4 years and its awesome  :cool:
