    snow foam is a pre wash, spray on with pressure washer, leave for about 5 mins ,helps to remove ,loosen dirt on car,power wash off then hand wash. Just change to using all dodo juice products.

    I'm a big fan of the stuff, I don't really buy in to different products from different companies giving better finishes than others. Park 3 cars next to each other each one prepared with a different brand product line i.e AG, Meg and CG and I doubt anyone could say which car is prepared with which brand. They all look good; they all look shiney.

    I agree with you, I also agree with Ginge too. I use AG SRP, and it actually responds better to machine use and will remove light swirling. I like the Megs range of Mirror Glaze Products because they have a wide range of cutting compounds, something that AG need to look further into, and because for the size of bottle price wise you cant beat it tbh.
    Theres too much snobbery when it comes to car cleaning products. Too many people see high price as a better product when in reality it may not be the case. The one I always laugh at on DW is Aerospace 303 which is a rubber and plastic protector commonly used for under bonnet dressing of plastics. Double the price of AG Vinyl and Rubber Care for the same size bottle, but because one is available at Halfords and one only on specialised internet website's the more expensive product is seen as the more superior product when in reality they both do the same job and to the same finish.
