    Is there anyone near you that has got snowfoam gear? Maybe you could try it out and see.

    Autobrite can be a bit hit-and-miss to raise on the phone. But they are (I think) still doing their offer of a lance and a 500ml bottle of Supafoam for £39.99 - delivered to mainland UK! That will be difficult to beat, I suspect.

    Just my opinions.

    Ok, my new snow foam lance and PH neutral foam arrived Thursday, just in time for the crappy weather. It had the usual rotary knob on the top, which I understand controls the mix strength (less for more foam?). On the nozzle there are two vertical plates, which adjust to around 1/4 inch gap or closed together. Do they alter the spray pattern?

    yes you can go from fan spray to hose type spray, turn the end nozzle either way, but get more suds on it not like thread photo, the more suds the longer it clings to the car giving a better chance for it to dissolve the dirt particles.
    just have a play with it,

    just stand up wind when your using it or you will look like a snowman.lol.
