Suitable Pressure washer + Snow Foam lance?

[Dan]

Hi guy's, used a pressure washer on the car earlier and was quite impressed with it over using a conventional hosepipe, whilst the girlf was up Halfrauds earlier she saw a pressure washer in the sale, looks good but would it be suitable for cleaning the car, don't want it to be too powerful or not powerful enough!? lol

Also looking at Snow Foam Lance's, there's this one again from Halfords for 18 quid:

OR

There's this one on eBay for the best part of 60 quid including the snow foam!:

What's the difference's and would the ebay one fit a karcher pressure washer, why is it 3 times the price?

Cheers :thumbs:

That's the pressure washer i use - it's more than powerful enough for car washing without risk of damage.

I have this snow foam lance which fits the Karcher: Snow Foam Lance (http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washing-and-drying/foam-lance-various-fittings/prod_371.html)

You specify the adaptor when ordering. :thumbs:

Ahh good to know then Rob, the pressure washer looks a bargain at just £70! :smokin:

Cheers for the link on the snow foam lance, any reason why the £18 Karcher one would be unsuitable though?

Nice pics Mark thanks! :thumbs:

I bought mine on recommendation from a detailing site based on good feedback :thumbs:

I believe B&Q are having a sell on Karcher PW at moment - 15-20% off IIRC,, might be worth a look:thumbs:

Cheers Jay, what's your thought's on the foam lance, detailing one or is the cheaper Karcher one suitable?

I would get the one to the link Rob put up....far superior to the little karcher one< its to small aswell so you would find your self needing to fill it up atleast twice to do the car which is alot of messing about
