Pro-Kleen Snow Foam Car Shampoo pH Neutral Cherry 5L & Karcher K Series Compatible Snow Foam Lance

UPDATE 17th Nov 2018: I decided to use a descaler on the lance. I poured some through all nozzles and left it for quite a while. 1-2 hours. Rinsed it through with hot water. Then ran hot water through the pressure washer from the bottle. It's worked and it's now working well again. I thought it was a product failure and it's not so put rating back to a 5. UPDATE 10TH NOV 2018: well 5 months later and a handful of uses the lance has failed. Obviously not built to last. Some air leak as just chucking out liquid. I've always made sure I washed the lance through with water after use so no agents were left in it. P***ed off. My journey to find a decent lance continues.... Rating changed to a 2. Original review : This is a two part review as there's the lance and the snow foam. So starting with the lance.... I have used 2 lances before, both from Sam's Detailing/i6auto, which are a very similar price to this and I have to say this pro-kleen one is so much better. Straight away you can see it is better quality. It's a lot sturdier and the design is a lot better. The sam's detailing one had some cheaper connections that just broke. This lance worked a treat. I opened the top valve a quarter turn and that was enough to give a nice thick foam. Adjusting the spray worked well too and i was able to cover the car quickly and easy. What I will say is this lance seems to go through the contents of the bottle very quickly. I made up 800ml in the bottle as with previous lances 1000ml was too much. The 800ml was just enough to do the whole car (an average size saloon). So I will make up 1000ml next time. But in short, very pleased with the lance. Highly recommended. So the foam then.... I mixed as per the instructions: 1 part to 3 parts water. This produced a nice thick foam tht covered the car well. This is thicker than foams I've used in the past (but might be because of the better pro-kleen lance) but not as clingy as say Angel Wax fast foam. Seemed to do an ok job at lossening dirt. But probably not the best foam i've used. That said, I will happily use it again as it offers good value. If you're expecting the car to look gleaming from just a snow foam you're a fool. It's a pre wash stage. That said, living in the country I often use it as a quick wash to remove the worst of it without getting my hands dirty. So if you want a nice thick foam that looks cool, and does a reasonable job relative to cost as you're mearly using this as a prewash, then this ticks the boxes. In short, excellent lance, pretty good foam offering good value for money.

Hi I have an ibiza fr, first time I've used this product and lance which comes with the package. It recommends you fill the lance bottle 250ml of snow foam but I just put 300ml and nice warm water, starting using it and found to get it really thick and glupy on the car you have to use it at max setting but ends up using the whole bottle on my car and it's hardly a tank but the quality of it is amazingly thick, you can see the dirt running down the car but I used a sponge all over the bodywork and didn't even touch my alloys just jetwashed them at the end and the results are amazing. Unfortunately as it looks so good I've gotta do the Mrs car now. And the wax it leaves on the car is great. Well done on creating such a good product.

The foam lance didn't fit my original Karcher K2.14 pressure washer trigger gun. The bayonet connector would not go deep enough to allow me to twist it into the locking prosition. It appears to be a problem with older models with a short trigger gun. In the end I upgrade mine with - Kärcher Replacement 7.5 m High Pressure Hose and Hand Gun, Quick Connect System Pressure Washer Accessory - available on amazon and it fits the new gun easily. The foam itself is nice and thick and turned my black merc into a snowman of an SUV. The 1L bottle lasted just long enough to cover my SUV. It smells nice too. Hard to say how well this product cleans as I used it as a pre-wash with a wash mit and shampoo as follow up. The foam also didn't last a long as I expected and dissipated within a few minutes. But its my first time using it so will experiement a little more. There's enough foam liquid to last me a very long time, using only 250ml of foam liquid per wash. Overall happy with the product, but loses a star for the issues mentioned above.

Really good car shampoo and smells gorgeous

Have waited for a few washes to leave a review. Snow cannon works well, just remember to rinse it through with water only after using (and then leave to dry). Snowfoam comes out good and thick. I use it 50/50. Doesn't exactly lift the dirt away as videos may say but after rinsing off and washing normally I'd say it had really lifted the shine in metallic paint compare to just a normal wash with a good car shampoo and a microfiber mitt. Not so noticeable on a white car but helps clear dirt and grime. Would buy again

Living on a very dusty building site and having Salisbury Plain literally on my doorstep, which I use for my dogs, daily, I have gotten sick of paying £10 a pop, per week for someone to clean my car for me. I have attempted to clean my car at home before but have ended up with smears and a lack of shine. After some research I have purchased three items, these being two of them for my new regime, it cost me about £55 for them all but the savings in the long term will be substantial. I decided that I was going to use the foam lance with cleaner foam and another product which is towels, (another review) (Ensure your power washer is compatible with the lance). I could spend ages talking a load about this and that but I'm going to upload some pictures and let them do the talking. The end result is as expected and as advertised, the car shines it cleans and the foam solution really foams up great. The lance works great and the foam smells fantastic. If you follow the instructions and other peoples reviews then your results will be as spectacular. Five stars to all three products

I'm useless at storing things so couldn't find my snow foam lance or even my huge bottle of snow foam so thought I'd give this a go. The lance fit my K3 perfectly and works very well. It covered my car with a nice thick layer of foam. I mixed 25% with warm water. The foam, unfortunately, is terrible at cleaning. I've used other brands before where using snow foam gets the car fairly clean. This snow foam, however, barely removed any dirt. My car is black so I've tried to take a picture showing how filthy the car still is on the door as it's drying and on the window. No snow foam is perfect, waterless washing is miles better than all snow foams, but this foam was very poor and just spraying the car with my jetwash would have given the same desired effect. Smells good though (as pointless as that is).

Great product

Lo primero decir que me he llevado un chasco. La lanza no está mal, demasiado ancho el arco, será cuestión de conseguir graduarlo bien porque un chorro salía disparado salpicando por todas partes. Encaja perfectamente con la Katcher. El jabón es la decepción. El coche tenía unas salpicaduras de charcos, nada de incrustaciones ni manchas difíciles de alquitrán o similares, la espuma lo deja exactamente igual. No ablanda la suciedad ni mucho menos la hace escurrir como esperaba, la proporción ha sido como indica el fabricante1/4 y 3/4 de agua caliente. He dejado el jabón casi 10 minutos pero nada de nada, eso si, huele de maravilla. Probare otras proporciones y si el asunto mejora editaré la opinión.

Para que el coche quede como se ve en los videos que he visto en internet habria que mezclar al menos al 50%/50% agua y jabon, pero eso si, mezclando lo que indica fabricante labespuma generada es suficiente y el coche queda brillante, las cosas como son.
