Not quite the next day but..... Foamed! and I've used it a couple of times now and I hadn't quite got the hang of the spray adjustments the time I took the photos but you can get a real good thick layer on that does eat into the grime and help take the worst of it off. I find it particularly good with the brake dust on my alloys. Great fun. Got a few neighbours cars to do, did my dads yesterday and I have several enquiries from colleagues at work but that is mostly scratch removal.... |

Well I bought the Clean Your Car one and a bottle of 5L Valet pro pH neutral snow foam. I had loyalty points left from previous purchases from CYC so they got my business again. Great fun to use. I put about 200 ml of snow foam in the bottle then put 1 litre of cold water in and I had enough foam to do the wifes Focus three times and have enough left over to do another once over. The CYC lance has plastic Karcher fittings now, after a number of people complained about the brass ones... If the weather allows I'll do mine tomorrow and post some pictures. Andrew |

The brass ones tend not to fit well (loads of folk complained when AB first sold them,me including) Plus they go all mouldy

Thanks Pete Why are the brass fittings pants then? I would have thought brass would have been better than plastic. Some of the Karcher adapters appear to be plastic rather than brass interestingly enough! |
