Fish freak! MP Admin Posts: 14989 Location: Birmingham | Not really just fools Just demonstrating that it only cost's 50 (dont really need the foam) to protect your paint and give it a thorough clean | ||

Regular Posts: 278 Location: Lincoln | I don't get it. So you pressure washed it, and its still covered in mud, is that because you've only pressure washed the right hand side? | ||

Fish freak! MP Admin Posts: 14989 Location: Birmingham | If i were you get the one with the hose reel, much easier to keep tidy and unless the hoses are rubber they are a pain in the arse coiling up | ||

Photoshop King Posts: 3014 Location: Birmingham | I'm surprised you used a pressure washer to blast that dirt off Andy, I've always been told never to use it straight onto dirt to remove it directly, only using light sweeps to remove the loose debris! Otherwise the pressure of it pushes the grains into your paintwork and blasts them off to one side, causing them to 'catch' the paint on the way. Snow foaming is ace though.

Fish freak! MP Admin Posts: 14989 Location: Birmingham | Id rather PW it off than wipe it off with my mitt thats for sure With two doses of foam i think it soffens it quite well | ||
