Snow foam

Can snow foam be used with a tap powered lance or does it have to be from a pressure washer?
Cheers.

Pressure washer im afraid.

You can get some foaming from certain pump sprayers but not to the extent of a power washer.

Thanks for the reply, is there any other product that works like snow foam but can be used with a tap powered lance, do you know?

Thick foam is not all its made out to be, a thick foam certainly is getting very little cleaning product to the surface to clean its more show.

You could try Bilt Hamber Auto-Foam in a pump sprayer a member on detailing world had great results with it as i have but my testing was with a proper foam lance and power washer.

Here is the test with the Pump Sprayer...

Thanks for the reply James, that's givem me something to think about. I was set to splash out on a pressure washer, don't know if i'll bother now.
This detailing is a confusing thing to get into.
