best snow foam out there??
« on: 05 July 2013, 09:48 »
what's the best snow foam out there to use with the    Gilmour Foamaster II Foam Gun?  I was thinking of ordering Valet Pro PH Neutral Snow Foam, is that good in terms of dilution?  Any suggestions?  I am running late, i'll be in the UK next week so i'd like to place my order with waxamomo today or monday at the latest.

Valet pro is the best stuff Waxamomo do IMO.

thanks Dan and Ginge, seems like a good choice then.  I'll just pick 1L to test first though :)

If you are using it through the gilmour  you won't see what the product can really foam like, just a heads up ;)

Orchard Cotton Candy hands down the best Ive used and its 100 to 1.

Like above you'll not get that great of a SF through the gilmour gun.

Another vote for Valet pro but ALL snow foams are good if the paint is heavily protected in the first place.

Bilt Hamber Auto Foam is very good.  Shifts a lot of dirt.
