Washed 2 cars today with, snow foam and demon shine (Nice shine) most of the crud came off with the foam, first time I used it, then put the Demon on and gave it a drive, had to go on the bloody motorway for it to sheet off though 80mph but most of it come off at about 60 to 70, 1/2 hour job for 2 cars though isn't too bad when you think how long it takes to do just the RR but you should wash it after the foam to get everything off, i think foam is just a pre wash

I did something similar today, yes the snow foam is a pre wash to help remove the dirt and debris used in the detailing world as a way to lift the grit of the paint work to avoid swirling.

Cleaned mine today as well, but with clearance items from Halfords. Advanced car wash 500ml £1, Demon shine 5lt £4.99, Turtle wax liquid clay £5 and carplan bumper and trim shine 500ml £1.50. Tried the liquid clay stuff as ive already clayed it with a bar so the paint is quite smooth but it did make a slight difference, i even tried it on the glass and it took out some light scratches, but you do need to wash off the residue again. Then a polish and wax with t cut colour stuff and a final top coat of Colinite 915.

I like Colinite its a good hard wax, very good to put on before the winter comes, and will last until the summer comes
