Afternoon all,

New here. Noticed a detailing thing whilst looking for stuff for the S7.

So, I have the K7 and I have the Fj10 and i can't seem to get any "snow" solution to snow.

I've tried a number of them and they make soapy suds but just roll off pretty quick.

Anyone know where I'm going wrong? I've tried using the stuff neat and tried diluting but gettin no where
 
I dont know what a FJ10 is but if it is the Karcher snow bottle I would get rid and buy a snow foam gun from a detail supply shop.as I suspect while they will be ok it wont be as good as a specific snow foam gun .and Karcher snow foam I believe isnt good.

Yup the Karcher lance is guff but you should at least get some froth from it if you Fiddle with it's knob lol

You got quite lot of experience fiddling with knobs ain’t you but on a serious note buy a good snow foam lance if you ain’t got one

Guessed as much.

Any recommendations that will fit the kat her k7? Seen the pro Kleenex Lance seems more robust but same price as the jar her bottle one

You'll get one from around £23 from various online detailing sites, the likes of in2detailing.co.uk

Thanks - got one on order.

With these do you still dilute your snow foam
Liquid or just use the adjuster and stick it in the bottle neat?

I would dilute it as it’s bit more cost efficient and lasts longer

If it helps, on my k5 I need to turn the pressure dial right down to get good foam. Using Valet pro diluted 200ml to 800ml water with the foam Lance from in2detailing.
