Can I wash my car without snow foaming first?

Snowfoam is a prewash stage to help loosen dried on dirt etc. It helps minimise paintwork damage but using any contact introduces a risk of damage. As JPC states, you'll be fine!

Its likely that your karcher has a built-in detergent/shampoo feed system (which just adds the mixture of your choice into the water stream) but for a proper snow foam, get yourself a brass-head foam nozzle...around the £40 mark and available from cleanyourcar, i4detailing etc  :happy2:

RussZS:
As Jay says, a high pressure rinse should be sufficient in most cases, especially if its wearing decent protection which should release most of the dirt anyway.

A few foams I've trialled recently have great cleaning power, but some seem to be affecting the beading on a wax a bit too much really - it's difficult to find the right balance.
