also just got a decent foam lance and some super foam

I got the autobrite HD foam lance, there is a link to the website via the detailing forum above

Cost was £48.99 inc 5L of Super Snow Foam.

There is a company called Elite Car Care on the forum that also do the lances

It seems to be very robust, with the brass fitting etc. but it is very very tight when fitting to the Karcher Lance, I opted for a little alteration and drilled the fitting with a 8.5 mm bit to give a extra space for the karcher to be inserted, its still tight but easier

Also they are a few on eBay, but the cost is the same as a shop, but at least you have the back up with a shop. Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I cant see a car it just dissapears into the English grey weather Is that why you have to attach a big white shed on the back

And straighten your tax disc it lets down all your polishing work

I would straighten the Tax disc, but since my dealer decided to stick it on the window where the windows details are (Glass Type etc) You can not read the details on the tax disc, which means possible fine as it has to be displayed and easily readable

As it may have been mentioned earlier:
Grey: conservative, traditional, serious

Black: sophisticated, strong, depressed

Id rather be thought of as serious than DEPRESSED

I agree nothing wrong with looking after you paint

I took delivery of a decent foam lance the other day, foam and leave for 10 minute and it makes the cleaning a whole lot easier. The 2 bucket method helps with getting rid of the dirty from the wash mit

Just a simple gloss of the tyres makes a difference too

A quick word of warning mate (I was really into detailing at one point) there was an issue with lances coming adrift from the guns under pressure, it happened to me, that fires the lance, bottle and all about 10 feet. Luckily it missed my car but if it hits your motor you will be needing paint.

Make sure it is well locked onto your gun

I do each and every time I use the lance and foam gun attachment as I have also read a few horror stories  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
