What Power Washer? Snow Foam Lances?

Well im after a power washer, and dont know much about them tbh, keep hearing the brand karcher being mentioned. After an electric one ideally, and itll just be used for washing the cars. was looking at this one - karcher k2 120

Also snow foam lances, whats the deal with them and can they fit onto any powerwasher, price range and foams etc?

I have a Karcher, not sure what model, was £200, got my foam lance and snow foam from Neil at Autobrite who is on the site, had it a few months now and I am well pleased with it.

Tesco have a really good Karcher on offer at the minute for £88 and they're brilliant. Then give Neil a shout for a Karcher fitment foam gun. The one in tesco is incredibly light and very powerful. The hose length is a bit **** but you can get extensions for them

^^^^^^^^ what he says...

i got that £88 one from tesco and £65 for a lance with karcher attachment and 5l of supasnow foam from neil @ autobrite!
£160 all in inc the driving about to ards and dundonald
feel free to call round if you want to give it a go before you purchase anything

What model is the one in Tesco!?

ohh i like the look of this

not at home but i think its the k2.385

the one im lookin at is K2.400 but 84.50? similar/same?

looks pretty much the same, that one you looked at has an extra 40L per hour in the flowrate

model number is very similar lol

think ill go for that, reckon itll still be there on sun?

i didnt see the 2.400 instore, best ringing them!

sounds good, i think ill have that one myself!

sent neil a pm there about the foam lance too, def worth getting if around the price josh paid

Well mate did you get sorted with a karcher? Tesco Craigavon Extra have these in stock, could get you few quid more off if that's local to you?

Tesco northcott now has one left - £84.97

not yet, wont be free till the weekend unfortunately to get one, hopefully they will still be at that price and in stock

im never up craigavon direction - but thanks for the offer anyway

i got the Autobrite HD lance off the group buy on detailing world. £39.99 delivered with 500ml of super snow foam too!

Replied.....same price Josh paid £65 for lance and 5ltrs super snow foam

No problem buddy, if anyone else is interested il do it for £80

We have a Sealey Washer with the Pickup up on it for detergents.

is this essentially what a snow foam lance does? so if i were to get a jar of the snow foam stuff would it do the same thing?

Its not really the same thing as the foam lance puts it out under pressure so the foam is very thick, my own is as thick as shaving foam when on the high setting! Where as when you draw the shampoo through the chemical line it will be more like soapy water if you understand me

Theres adjustment for how little or how much it picks up. i dunno. i see no real benefit of me having a snow foam lance either way.

Have you used one? I can assure you that what you have would not compare to a HD Lance
