By the name its sounds like it would do more damage than good! :lol: You really need to polish the car then wax it to seal in and give the paint a layer of protection. Polishing is abrasive and will remove tiny amount of the clearcoat, but you will then be leaving it exposed to the elements with out giving it a layer of wax/ sealant. Snowfoam.... that was probably me http://z10.invisionfree.com/djcc/index.php?showtopic=10154Snow foam just really makes cleaning a bit easier takes the surface layer of dirt off, it doesn't clean the car for you. But yeah it is good fun

I used to clean mine and polish it at least once a week, since moving down here though it gets done once every 2-3 weeks which is painful for me but I don't have a drive way or anywhere decent to clean it now.

You need a foam gun attachment for the karcher and some snow foam. Try here |

What does the foam actually do! Do you put on spray off or do you wipe down then spray off! |
