Welcome To Snow Foam

Welcome to a new world of cleaning.

First off, we're so happy you're here! If you're anything like us, we love our cars and love keeping them in tip-top condition.

As you've now upgraded your car care to Snow Foam, let's delve into making your car care experience better than it ever was before by learning how to use them the way they're intended to.

We all have our ways of doing things, so if an alternate way works for you, go for gold!

Car Washing 101

1. Wash In Shade

You don't want soap, water, waxes or sealants to be frying on your hot car panels. This can leave unwanted streaks and makes it even more work to get your car clean.

Try your best to find shade or work during the morning or toward sunset when the sun isn't as harsh if you cannot find shade.

2. Toss Your Old Gear

Old, dried up, dirty towels, wash mitts or chamois can contain used chemicals along with not being super soft on your paint.

Do yourself a favour and keep your cloths, mitts, chamois and towels all clean or replace them. You don't want that rubbing up against your expensive paintwork.

3. Ensure The Car is Cool To Touch

It's best to avoid washing your car straight after a drive. The engine is hot so therefore your bonnet will be hot and your wheels and brakes will be radiating heat too.

Applying wheel cleaners or Snow Foam on these areas is similar to washing the car in the sun.

4. If you drop it, wash it

Avoid dropping any equipment meant for your car's paint. Even though you might be tempted to quickly brush it off and reuse it, this can actually cause more harm than good.

Take your time and grab a new cloth or wash mitt or thoroughly clean it. The amount of dirt on the ground on these cloths can include dirt, rocks, sand and these will lead to endless swirl marks. 

5. Separate Your Towels 

To ensure proper care, avoid using the same towel to dry both your car and your wheels. Similarly, use a different microfiber cloth for the exterior and the interior. This prevents any unintended chemical transfer to surfaces. Take your time and follow these guidelines for optimal results.


The Detergent For You.

Different detergents with different properties to specialise your wash.

Complete Wash System - Ultimate Kit Guide

1. Interior Cleaning

Simply apply a fine mist of Interior Cleaner onto the dashboard, trims, and fabric to effectively remove dirt and grime from your interior. Then, use a microfibre cloth to easily wipe off the residue and enjoy the pleasant, clean fragrance.

To achieve a deeper level of cleaning, try agitating the Interior Cleaner with either a brush or drill brush. Afterwards, you can easily remove it using an extractor or wet vacuum.

We like to do the interior first so we aren't stepping into the car with wet feet or hands.

For deeper carpet stains, try Orange and a wet vacuum/extraction.

2. Wheel Cleaning

Attend to wheels with Wheel Cleaner or Purple. Spray on and rinse off within 30 seconds - 60 seconds.

Scrub with Microfibre brush or Bristle Brush as necessary.

For Wheel Cleaner, you want to avoid any raw metal or polished metal and stick to OEM wheels.

For raw aluminium lips or barrels, use Purple.

Use the Microfibre Wheel Brush to get into spokes and barrels whilst the Red Bristle Brush can be used for wheel faces.

3 - Snow Foam Initial Prewash Layer > Dwell > Rinse

Snow Foam the car with 100mL of Snow Foam Detergent and 900mL water in your Snow Foam Lance or Gun. Allow to dwell for 5 - 10 minutes before rinsing.

Best to foam bottom up so that any foam run off doesn't disrupt the foam sticking to the car. 

Let it dwell on the car for 5 - 10 minutes before rinsing.

4 - Snow Foam Contact Layer

With the remainder of the detergent in your Snow Foam Lance or Gun, perform a second layer. This layer will be scrubbed gently with the Snow Cloud Wash Mitt. Rinse thoroughly.

​It is advised from here to setup your Wash and Rinse Two Bucket method, ensuring you clean your mitt after each panel. Alternatively, wash your mitt with your pressure washer after each panel. 

During this stage, you can use ORANGE degreaser on your exhaust tips and side steps before agitating.

5 - Snow Foam Shield Hydrophobic Spray

Whilst the car is wet, mist on a layer of Shield Spray on all panels.

For best results, use a microfibre cloth to spread the product evenly on all panels.

Rinse thoroughly after 30 - 60 seconds. 

6 - Dry with Twister Towel

Lay the towel on the roof of the car flat and pinch two corners of the towel before sliding the water off. 

Ensure the towel doesn't hit the ground nor is used to clean any areas that you may have missed.

Simply go back over any dirty areas with the wash mitt and soap.

7  - Finishing Touches

The car is now dry and you can apply Spray Wax for a shiny final finish - Spray and buff into each panel until dry.

Tyre Gel on the tyres for a satin shine. Apply with Tyre Gel Applicator. Tyre Shine will be a spray application that will leave a wet look.

Clear Window Cleaner to finish up the windows.

8 - Clean Your Microfibre Towels

Ensure you pop your towels and brushes into the wash and look for Microfibre Wash to have them ready for your next wash.

Snow Foam Gun Setup

Firstly ensure that all parts of the Snow Foam Gun are tight including the gold quick release adaptor and the hose end. You can rotate the hose trigger adjustor to ensure it is to your liking.

From here, simply plug the Snow Foam Gun into your garden hose like you would with any other garden hose accessory, ensure it is tight. 

Using The Snow Foam Gun

Place 800ml of warm water followed by 100mL of Snow Foam Detergent into your bottle.

Screw the bottle onto your Snow Foam Gun's body and attach the quick release adaptor on your garden hose trigger to the body by pulling back on the black ring. Squeeze the trigger and off you go. 

Three Types of Spraying Modes

You can rinse, foam and jet spray with the Snow Foam Gun. For rinsing, take off the Snow Foam Gun body and use the trigger handle to rinse the car.

Attach the Snow Foam Gun body onto the trigger handle along with the end nozzle for foam.

For jet spraying, keep the body on the trigger, but remove the end nozzle.

Adjusting the Dial

With our latest model of Snow Foam Guns, slide the adjusting bar to the largest inlet hole for more foam.

Ensure the holes are facing directly up to ensure the detergent can enter the gun body correctly.

The holes represent mixing ratios:
1:10 , 1:20, 1:32, 1:64, 1:128

E-Foamer

Setting Up The E-Foamer

Firstly plug the E-Foamer into a 5V charger with the provided USB Type C charging cable. Open the accessories bag to find two rubber gaskets which will be used before inserting the Foam Nozzle or the Spray Nozzle.

Storage

It is advised to clean out the E-Foamer after each use.


Take the head off and run clean water through the E-Foamer head until all chemicals are cleared out of the system.

Short Trigger Gun

Setting Up The Short Trigger Gun

If you have been given a small cube box with an adaptor in it, you will need to use PTFE tape around the brass thread of your Short Trigger Gun approximately 5-8 revolutions. Screw this adaptor onto your Short Trigger Gun and tighten.

If you are using an M22 adaptor, simply PTFE tape the brass thread on the end adaptor.

Proceed to click in your pressure washer's hose via the adaptor or screw it in via the m22 adaptor.

Screw the gold quick connector adaptor onto the spray end of the short trigger gun tightly before inserting a coloured spray nozzle.

Spraying The Car

To use the Short Trigger Gun you will need to pull back the gold quick release end and insert one of the coloured nozzles and lock it in tightly. If the nozzle isn't in tightly, you can have this small piece be blasted by the water pressure and cause damage to yourself, other or your car.

For this, shoot at the ground first and never point it directly at another human being or animal. 

Connecting Your Snow Foam Lance

You will need:1/4 Inch AdaptorIf you are intending to use your Snow Foam Lance with the Short Trigger Gun, you will need to switch the existing adaptor to a 1/4 inch quick connect adaptor. It will then click in and out like the 5 coloured nozzles.

Roll the Underbody back and forth underneath your car to get as much dirt, sand and grime off as you can. 

You can then pull out the swivel pin to adjust the angle as desired.

Driveway Cleaning

Simply rotate the Underbody Cleaner to have the spray heads pointing towards the ground.

Roll back and forward to clean your driveway.
