Washing the beast!!

(1/3) > >>

Jussa:
Need to buy myself a Pressure washer as I'm about to get her detailed soon and don't want to go down to the local £5 Albanian sandpaper wash afterwards.

Can anybody advise which would suffice?  I'm assuming it doesn't have to cost £300+  :confused:

Also, if you can advise on this, maybe you can also tell me about this 'snow wash' I keep hearing and seeing about, and which one and where to buy it?   :happy2:

All advice much appreciated  :popcornsoda:

I'd be looking at the 550model upwards, will be more than enough for cleaning the car and snowfoaming etc and will also be handy round the home :happy2:

With regard to the snow foaming all you need is a snowfoam lance and some snowfoam liquid and away you go

could probably be found cheaper with a search :happy2:

I got a small karcher electric pressure washer not sure of the model. It's best thing I ever bought came with tools for £100. Iv seen them about for the same price, think the sale price is quite common..
When you do get one invest in a snow foam fittment and some snow foam well worth it.

Beddie:
I have one of these: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/7420205.htm

Can't fault it for the money and quite a step up from the base model Karcher i had imo  :happy2:

As for snowfoam i use the Valet Pro PH neautral stuff as it doesnt strip off any wax protection you have on the car

Jussa:
Thanks guys  :notworthy:

Never knew you had to actually buy another lance to add to the system  :stupid:

So I guess the £160 unit should suffice K3.550 X series!!

2 words hosepipe ban  :signLOL:

And the worst rain since records began for April!!!
