Mines a basic karcher with the plastic tube you dunk in the shampoo bottle will this suffice or do you need an attachment on the lance?

 

 

I have tried all sorts of foamers and karcher attachments, in all honesty, I find nothing better than the wash being put in a bucket and then spray the karcher into it - then use that to foam the car.

 

Just my 2p

I think that if you own something that's nice/expensive, that you should take every step to look after it. For example - you buy a house - you spend a lot of time in it, but 99% of us would not let the house get to the same state of some of the cars on today's roads.

 

I spend a lot of time in my car - almost 4 hours a day. In that time, i like to live in a nice/clean environment.

 

I think what he's achieved with that car is amazing - but - that all said, perhaps a little overkill for something that can be ruined with a 5 minute stop in a local supermarket carpark, or with some 17yr old nutter plowing into the back of you.

 

I clean my car once a week (basic wash/wax) and then once a year I spend an entire weekend completing a full detail. Good enough for me :)
