peter richards Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 hi guys ive had a few enquiries about this stuff that i use . but unless you have a foam bottle to attach to your pressure washer , then it wont work . so ive just spoken to my supplier and ill see if i can get a package together that incorporates a bottle as well, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffleman Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Be very interested in some snow foam mate I have a pressure washer with a seperate bottle for the concentrate, but not sure if this is any good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 no it needs a different type of bottle , i have two built into my pressure washer , and it doesnt work , . thanks J T , im trying to teach him the two bucket method Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Do you have any pics of the neccesary bottle Peter? Is this the stuff used on that Astra and R8 to loosen the dirt? I have 3 fairly basic Karcher washers that i have inherited over time, but im pretty sure none have a specific foam lance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I'll take some if it's cheaper than the usual sources Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I would not mind seeing what the bottle looks like, as my lance already has one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter richards Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 heres the bottle i have , and thats not me lol, the more expensive lances will produce a thicker layer , but personally it does the same job , i think that type of bottle is about £15 , but as i said earlier ill see if i can get a deal , hopefully then the price will be reduced , i know i paid £7 for mine , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 mine looks similar, but the foam did not come out like that, which leads me to think, it was the wrong stuff ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 also depends graham how much you put in the bottle , the more in the bottle the thicker it comes out . i normally put about 15mm in fill with water and off you go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter richards Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 that yellow bottle rob isnt a lance , the lances are quite a lot more , do a google see if you can find the different types Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 cool, so snow foam it is.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konrad Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I got refurbed foam lance from autobrite, costs around 30 quid (which is more expensive way than bottle ) but if you do not have lance with bottle attachment, you should get one from them, effect is incredible - even when using standard shampoo, not snow foam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 that yellow bottle rob isnt a lance , the lances are quite a lot more , do a google see if you can find the different types Ahh right, misread what you typed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 My pressure washer is a Halfrauds jobbie, need to dig it out and see what lances fit. Definitely got to go the snow foam route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 i think the karcher bottle will only fit karcher machines , but i think you can buy adaptors . anyway let me find out whats available first then we can go from there , but certainly the foam will be available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 pete - I broke my lance bottle being over zealous. If it's the AB ones you order, I'll have a couple of spare filler bottles. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 ok mate ill have to wait untill tonight to see what the supplier comes up with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 No probs mate. I could go back to AB and just ask them but i'm lazy lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 just watched the vid and my bottle is over twice the size of that. Enough to do all te cars in one sitting. I'll go back to AB I think mate. Thanks anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
