Snow foam usage

Post by swannny » Sun May 19, 2013 5:58 pm

Just used my snow foam for the first time today, I've been missing out, it's awesome!

While cutting the grass I noticed how dirty the decking was, considering I only re-stained it a month ago, would the snow foam work on breaking down the bird crap and dirt that's on it? Might even work on the conservatory roof glass?

Just me being lazy and thinking if easier ways to clean stuff!

So do you guys think it'd be ok?

Get a T-Racer from karcher, very good for decking.

Think it's safe to say that RS Turbo is a minter.

My neighbour was showing me photos of his when he got it new from the show room back in 85/86 I think it was. He had nearly good as every Ford RS and cossy they ever put out, was great seeing the photos.

He will love seeing these, thanks for posting up.

Bum head, which snowfoam do you use?
Also, is the bird crap dirt that bad that you had to put it twice??????????????????

Which is the favoured snow foam as I've a few vehicles and don't half get through it , the downside is applying it when it's windy ..... Goes every where including over me !

Morning shiny bald head!

Two doors away from me is an Indian takeaway, and I'm sure they must eat the leftovers. The size of these craps is unbelievable!

I got my snow foam and snow stuff from ultimate finishers. I think it's their own brand.

Maybe I should invest in an air rifle as well!


On another note, I love that RS turbo, I did can a bit of man wee dribble out the end.
