All pretty much the same. eBay lance is about 25£, not sure if it comes with snow foam, they usually do, about a litre

Something like this

You will need the correct fitment for your pressure washer

Make sure you buy a proper lance with a adjuster on top, and while your at it get some proper foam, bilt hamber auto foam is the real deal :happy2:

Seems like a good deal, but looks like you get no snow foam with it. Other detailing sites have got them 34-44£ and you get a litre of snow foam. There are dozens of different snow foam products out there. Sign up to www.detailingworld.com there is loads of info there, lots of reviews and how to guides. :happy2:

I ment just don't buy them rubbish ones that come with some pressure washers as there hopeless, the one in the link should be fine. You could look on some detailing site and see what they offer. Just make sure you get right connections for your pressure washer

I purchased an Autobrite lance about 18 months ago and after about a year of use it stopped making the foam properly. Stripped it down and cleaned it out but didnt make any difference. Their snow foam seems good though, has a nice smell too.

That's the one I've got it just not branded as autobrite but it's the same 100%, still going good. You might do this already but after each time you use it fill the bottle with clean water and give it a good blasting out

Think i'm just going to order a new one, but i'll make sure I clean it out after every use.

how long will 5L foam get me?

Year plus? Depends how often you use it, I get around a year+ out of 5L of bilt hamber auto foam. You only need one inch of foam in a one litre lance bottle then filled to the top with warm water.
