Hi guys
I need to get myself a Pressure Washer, and maybe a snow foamer thingy so that I can get the winter crap off of my car!
This seems a pretty good deal to me, but Im after your opinion since Ive never bought one of these before.....

I've heard pressure washers can take paint off plastic trim/bumpers.......be careful!

Whats the best way to use one??
I'll be buying a snow foam/lance at some stage - but wanted to use it to get the road salt etc off of the car.
Should I ensure Im at a certain distance, for example?

I bought a Karcher K3 65 for £80 off ebay,which included a free dirt blaster worth £25.It's superb!.Follow the instructions on the tin and you won't go wrong.

I have used my pressure washer all my previous cars without any trouble, got up close and personal with all the baked on dirt and it flies straight off, I haven't tried it on my new gti yet though....

I need a foam lance and some decent snow foam now.
I want the snow foam to be good stuff, while I dont want to spend too much on the lance - any ideas?
