I have heard good things about that Snow Foam stuff. You spray it on with a kartcher.

That website is just a money pit!! Yeah foam before washing to get rid of any particles...the list is endless.

I think the next purchase will be one of their buffing machines, maybe the DAS6 Pro kit. I also bought a Grit Gaurd so I'll be trying the 2 bucket wash method...oh and I have a claybar left over from when I did my 180 before selling it that I'll have to use

It's going to be a busy day!

Happy shopping!!!

I can't upgrade to a S4 until June. DOH!

In better news and on topic, I just now had a parcel arrive from Car Care Products. About to foam the car again for the 2nd time in 4 days after another day trip down south. Fucking bugs.

Hey! Soon to have that line trademarked

Foaming is a great way to pre-soak for a wash.. I know some that simply foam and rinse for their regular washing (and sponge when car is filthy).

Keeping in mind after you clay that the paint will be raw/exposed. Need to wax/seal straight after.

Happy times!

Just finished....whew what a day! I chickened out of clay barring as I'd already spent a lot of time on it

What would you recommend for a good quality wax or sealant? I am thinking a synthetic would be good as the car is white?

I just used the Duragloss Aquawax that came with the pack today but am thinking I need something extra?

Jetseal. Pretty sure this is the right one.
I am sure Adz will correct me if I am wrong.

I use Mothers Pure Carnuba wax or an AutoGlym wax and they do a pretty good job without being to costly.
