      Me ignorant of the benefits of snowfoam
      Can it be applied without a pressure washer, or is that the whole point? (To apply with a pressure washer)

        Chris, it can be applied via a garden pressure sprayer (the 1.5L capacity type that you pump) but it doesn't have half as near as the same effect. I do however nowadays use the garden pressure sprayer for the initial application of a citrus pre-clean, a rinse then the lance to apply the snowfoam.

                The tyre glitz looks awesome if you are in there. Don't not get any of that.

                  It is awesome Emily and with only using such a small amount per litre it is extremely economical too

                    Yes they are and just heard this from Rollo the owner there himself:

                    Well here it is I have literally recieved hundreds of emails and calls commenting on the postage rates we have to mainland UK. It was a cost we have had getting products to Northern Ireland for years and is totally unavoidable as it is what we were charged by our courier. Well after lots of tooing and frowing we are now going to offer a flat rate postage fee of £6 anywhere in the UK. we will absorb the additional cost until we have a mainland distributor who will be able to taks on delivery.. Its as low as we can go as it is a pretty big hit for us to absorb each parcel but hopefully you will support us. We will have to drop the DW discount though as we simply cannot afford the additional reduction in cost it gives but are going to leave it up until the end of the month.

                    So all you have to do now is get shopping:

                    Many thanks

                          Please do mate, you won't regret it at all.

                          Bramley bubble bath. 2000:1 ratio = 7.5ml of product for 15L of water; smells gorgeous like, you guessed it, apples.







                          Cotton Candy Snow Foam in action. Dilution ratio 100:1





                          Glitz tyre dressing, looks greasy, isn't greasy to the touch and no fling at all.





















                          The products truly are excellent from a relatively unknown Company. Trust me they are absolutely fantastic, you won't be disappointed

                            The Mrs came home tonight to say her car was dirty and would I mind washing it for her.....guess what my answer was???????

                            Thought would be an ideal chance to showcase the Cotton Candy using 20ml in 1L of cold water.

                            Before





                            20ml used





                            Note not sticking to glass due to hydrophobic coating




                            Look closely and dirt has been dragged off and is there


                            Car rinsed and dried, no mitt has touched paintwork during this wash, cleaned using the power of snow alone




                            Quick spray with QD leaves it looking like this
