Rich 11 · 26th August 2008, 18:26

Hmmm will do

psykik · 26th August 2008, 22:31

for the record, i bought from rachel 2 months ago, very satisfied with my foam lance and rachels excellent service. We didnt know which fitting would fit, she sent me 3 to try out, i returned the 2 that didnt fit. Excellent!

Slim Boy Fat · 27th August 2008, 12:09

Mine just arrived an hour ago. Been wandering around the office humming winter wonderland ever since! One question, do we put the snow foam in the bottle concentrated or diluted and if diluted by how much the 1 - 5 % they suggest on the container or something different. Anyone out there who already owns one got any tips?

Rachael Talked about putting approx 2'' depth of liquid and then topping up with water for car washing.She did say some people have used it full strength,say if your'e washing down a particularly mucky mountain bike

Gaz2.2 · 27th August 2008, 15:37

That's mine arrived, excellent service, thanks Rachel

Gaz2.2

Dimplyred · 27th August 2008, 19:04

I see they have started arriving.

Anyone used theirs yet?

I asked for mine to be sent out today, for delivery tomorrow.

dmacg69 · 27th August 2008, 20:32

Gave Rachel details etc yesterday morning and it arrived today... got to say a great service from Rachel.

Will hopefully get a shot of it tomorrow after work...... weather permitting.

Thanks to Dimplyred and superstat for setting up this group buy

Cheers

Had a blast with mine tonight when I got home, luckily the weather was just right, not too hot, no direct sunlight and no rain! At first I just got this piddly flow of water out of my lance and after 10 mins of twisting various knobs realised I hadn't turned the pressure washer on, doh!! What a jackass! But once switched on got a lovely creamy foam. Covered the car, rinsed it off and thought, 'what the hell, that was fun!' So gave it a second coat. Have to say the car looked v clean afterwards. Just waiting for my Bilt Hamber autoclay and autobalm to arrive tomorrow and she'll be looking a million dollars. Well chuffed!

Sounds great,I can't wait to get mine now.

Gaz2.2 · 27th August 2008, 23:23

Gave mine a go as well, as slimboyfat said, weather just right, so had to try it. The mix I used was about 30% snow foam, more concentrated than suggested earlier in this thread, but I wanted to make sure it was nice and thick and I wasn't disappointed. For the first time of use, I'm well chuffed with the results, might do it again tomorrow
night

I also used Bright Wheels, on both the wheels and on the front of the car to remove the bugs etc. Results on both were excellent. It cleaned the wheels well as expected, but I was pleasantly surprised how well it removed the bugs from the front of the car, or at least loosened them well enough so that they just jet washed away.

Not without it's problems however, as while I applied the foam to the car, water was leaking at high pressure out of one of the joints which is either not tight enough or not sufficiently sealed with PTFE tape. However, I'm sure I'll be able to sort this tomorrow, once I find my spanners (and my trousers dry out

).

Happy snow foaming guys

Dimplyred · 28th August 2008, 19:02

Mine arrived today and I couldn't wait to get out and try it.

I must say I am very impressed with it, also I think it will be great for a quick wash off in the winter when we don't want to be outside for too long in the cold.
