Have a look at this review on snowfoams. I have BH auto foam and it seriously removes so much dirt off the car! worth having a look.

To get good Snowfoam you need a lance attachment for your pressure washer. I've got Magifoam snowfoam which is great in an Autobrite lance, a mate of mine also swears by Kleen Freaks foam :wink:

I've never rated foam.

I bought the Autobrite HD 2 years ago with a load of SSP and a bottle of yellowy foam (the next escapes me). The foam is nice and thick and sticks to the paintwork for about 5 mins - but it does bugger all other than make a 2" deep foam pit for me to wade through when actually cleaning the car with a (god forbid I say it) ... sponge.

I still use it though - just because I paid for it. But when it runs out, the lance is going in the bin - big waste of money.
