[oak_grun]

Hi, I have jut purchased a Gilmour FoamMaster and wanted some advice/recommendations on which snow foam is best for the paint, Steel Grey, in this case and which one achieves best results?

I'm all new to this..so any tips appreciated! Pics would be ace?

Also of any one had a Gilmour, any tips on how use, get best out of it would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

The colour of the car is irrelevant. I use a Foamaster II normally with Valet Pro PH Neutral Snow Foam and a cap full of whatever shampoo I am using at the time - currently Chemical Guys  Citrus Wash & Gloss. Water pressure is really important with the Foamaster and I've always used it in it's highest setting (7 I think). It's also very important that foam is applied to a dry car - if it is wet the foam will simply slide off.

Thanks

So I need to add shampoo in with the snow foam. Will get ordering some then

Cheers

You don't necessarily have to use shampoo with snow foam, but I find the results better

+1 for Valet Pro ANSF. i use it as a pre wash after starting on Auto Finesses Citrus Power and finding it too expensive.

THe ANSF is brilliant.

The gilmour foam master was designed for the american market, where mains water pressure is usually insanely high ! so they struggle to produce a decent amount of foam over here in the UK

They do work ok but don't expect massive amounts of foaming
