In this video, I show you how to mix magibrite snow foam for best results with the autobrite lance.
This method makes thick creamy shaving foam like snow foam using a cheap Karcher K2 pressure washer,
I use 100 mm of magifoam and top up the bottle to the 400mm mark with hot water.
Turn the autobrite lance all the way to minus then back half a turn, for best results use a width of around 70 cm to spray on the car.

are the links the right way round, the one you have for karcher says nilfisk on amazon and the nilfisk doesn't say any particular make of PW

I usually don't comment on video's but now I have to; I also use a Karcher-K and wanted someting to foam my car with, ordered the foam lance from Autobrite and followed this man's exact instructions and it really works perfectly. I love it, very usefull video!!!

@TommyApel 4 года назад

Do not do as he explains, it's called a pre-wash for a reason, if you follow his instructions you will just scratch up your paint even more. Apply the foam and wash of with a pressure washer and only after that you can get out your wash mitt and do the contact wash with an auto shampoo.

Great video this is, for some reason there’s so many people over complicating the process of using snow foam and what pressure washer to use... this video explains everything and just shows how easy and simple it is... thankyou 👏🏻

@markkerr3761 4 года назад

No... It does not... While this video explains adequately how to set up your bottle, the methods used, particularly on a black car, will scratch and swirl your paint... The correct process isn't complicated but it does take time... If you haven't got said time then perhaps car detailing isn't for you but if that's the case then why by pre-wash products in the first place? Following the method in this video, you might as well drive to the local garage and use there drive-thru swirl machine... 🤷🏻‍♂️

@blurayffan66 4 года назад

As a few others have mentioned, the reason to snow foam the car is to lift the dirt off the surface of the car...then it needs to be hosed off. Then you wash your car as normal. If you wash as show in the video all you are doing is rubbing all that dirt and grit back into the paintwork.

@Synycom1 3 года назад

Very helpful. Some negative comments on here but clearly this works for you and you did a great job taking the mystery out if snow foam

@markod1986 4 года назад

The function of snow foam is as a pre rinse, to lift the dirt and particles off of the paint and run them down to the bottom, so you wash them off then. If you use a mitt on a pre rinse stage you will drag the dirt around the car and scratch or swirl it. Having that said, I’ll def use your trick with the dilution of foam itself.

@stewills9711 3 года назад

The foam in this is too thick, a 5 minute dwell is more than enough to remove loose dirt before rinsing. Then you start the contact wash. He says no swirls, but I can bet you that thing is marked up bad.

@mama9048 3 года назад

@izoyt 4 года назад

It is important, how black is mixed, imo. I did have focus in black colour, which was really nice, since it is mixed with metallic, purple particles, which gives extra depth to the black. I find blacks on german brands for ex. little bit dull. Too bad ford quality is shite, was giving me a lot of frustration. Anyway, black is nice, when it is clean, but it does take more attention, and every scratch etc is visible from mile away. About washing (from my view) i find foam little bit on bs side (i try it, but it doesn't really clean much). One could argue, it just for sake just of unsticking dirt off etc, but you get that with common rinsing too (foam could be maybe beneficial on extra dirty car) . What i id find out and i use this method ever since, is to use constant flow of water (i just let flow without washer pump being on) when washing with sponge/mit. This constantly lubricate cleaning surface and taking dirt off. Do this 2 times on whole car (with some quality car shampoo) in shade and i can tell you, you won't be needed any additional drying and cleaning with cloth etc (you can, if you're extra picky). done and done, nice glossy, shiny car.

I've had my K2 for well over 10 years and have only had to replace the high pressure hose. Mine has the built in mixing tank and I use Karcher car and bike detergent and it works brilliantly. Just add 3:1 mix and the Karcher does the rest. Simple. Top tip, never run your Karcher before letting the low pressure water run through it before you use it on high pressure. It avoids the pump running dry on start up.

Good video. I also use a Karcher with our black cars. Have a go with Autoglym Polar Seal in the Lance after you have washed and rinsed. The Polar Seal will give 4 to 6 weeks protection depending on the weather and in the in between times give the car a maintenance wash. For that try Garage Therapy ‘One’ Shampoo ( 20ml in a bucket) and their ‘Two’ Quick Detailer for the finish.

@SilveryFoxster 4 года назад

Shouldn’t the snow foam have been rinsed off prior to the contact stage. This would prevent any grit trapped in the snow foam from being rubbed into the top coat.

@stephenpeacock2627 4 года назад

Eddie Runcorn yep. He didn’t wait for the product to do its job, then should’ve rinsed it off. Then during the next shampoo stage he can use the mitt. If he hasn’t scratched the clear coat or paint then he’s bloody lucky. He may as well use a scourer.

@maxxtro50 4 года назад

As a car detailer this video made me cringe. Hats off to people trying but please do not do what this man is saying. 1 do not activate snow foam with hot water this is why he stated it lasts for ages and sticks. 2 do not agitate the snow foam With a wash mit. It is designed to remove dirt then be rinses off not scrubbed, this will in fact scratch the paint work with any particles the snow foam has removed. This will create scratch and swirl marks which will then cost a lot to have someone come and correct your paint. 3 always use the 2 bucket method wash and rinse after rinsing the snow foam off. Also do not put polish in a lance with water it was not designed to be mixed. Buy a spray sealant instead. Also another tip always wash your wheels first.

@@maxxtro50 You've made some valid points there, however Auto Glym Polar seal is meant to be diluted and is designed to be used with a lance. Also I don't understand why not use hot or at least warm water if it gives you a thicker foam? does it dilute the washing properties of the snow foam?

DO NOT follow the advice in this video, unless you want to add more swirls into your paintwork... Snow foams/pre-wash products should be thoroughly rinsed off the vehicle BEFORE you was it... They are designed to remove the grit/dust/dirt off the vehicle so that you don't then tub it in... Hence the name PRE-wash 👍🏼 hope this helps

I would always rinse after foaming has been left for the right time to make sure any fine grit etc is removed that the foam has loosened and lifted before rubbing all that grit back into the paint surface with a cloth as it could easily result in scratches otherwise. But your way of doing apart from that is great and I will try to follow it. Thanks.

Great Video. Be careful parking your car near your boiler outlet as these emit small amounts of iron deposits. The way that I detail is.... Pressure wash to remove the heavy deposits, snow foam as you describe, rinse, decontaminate with iron remover (wheels first), rinse, contact wash using a coral mit and the 2 bucket method using a stone guard in the clean water bucket, rinse, towel dry (Micro Fibre), spray with waterless finishing product, rinse again,. Boom done takes about 90 mins, but well worth it. This is for a weekly maintenance wash.

If you don’t want swirl marks you should use the pressure washer to rinse off the foam after you’ve let it soak for a bit, then contact wash wish a shampoo bucket and a rinse bucket. The foam loosens the dirt but it’s still sitting on the car, so contact washing at that stage is just moving around the dirt which will scratch the paint

@DjNikGnashers 2 года назад

I was thinking exactly the same thing. What's the point of snow foaming if you are going to rub all the dirt into the paint lol ! Blast off the worst with the Karcher, snow foam, blast that off, then apply any extra's like fallout remover and/or tar remover, blast that off, and ONLY THEN should you touch wash with a shampoo and the softest lambswool mitt. I worked as a valeter.

@unisoulja6227 2 года назад

@@DjNikGnashers Why Lambswool? Clearcoat isn't made of tracing paper lol. Its a lot tougher than the detailing industry try to make out - can't imagine why they'd want to gaslight weekend warriors into paying for overpriced kit. Sigh. Besides, lambswool has been shown to not release dirt very well on numerous scientific tests.

@DjNikGnashers 2 года назад

@@unisoulja6227 Lambswool because it isn't there for 'releasing dirt' mate, 99% of the dirt should already be removed especially any grit or small particles which may scratch clear coat. After pre-wash, and snow foam, there should only be a slight stubburn film of grime left, and the odd insect remains. The lambswool mitt is there so that I can apply a bit of pressure without risking more swirls. I'm not a weekend warrior, stop assuming, I worked as a valeter professionally before I moved into other areas of the motor trade (which I still work in). Years of experience have taught me exactly what to use. Now, if clear coat was really that tough, why does every car have swirls unless it's just come from a 2 stage polish with a DA ? It sounds like you read 'bro' science' bs on the internet and believe everything you read, but don't actually have any real experience matey if I'm being honest.

To go one bit further which makes sense. Dont use 1 mitt with a wash and rinse bucket. Simply buy say 8 mitts and section the car up into sections and use a clean mitt for each section. Then you reduce the chance of cross contamination. Makes sense and only cost £14 for 8 mitts.
