SNOW FOAM WASH VS REGULAR WASH (Bowden's Snow Job)

Today I decided to see if there really was a difference between a snow foam specific car wash and just a regular car wash!

    Nice review. We all get caught up on how much foam they produce because it looks cool and it is foam after all. But the REAL question is, how much dirt does each one remove after equal amount of dwell time?

    Hats off to you mate. I've been using Bowdens Snow foam for a year now, it's excellent for decontaminating the paint work prior to washing. After rinsing it off, I follow up with Bowdens Nanolicious for the wash. I use the Bowdens snow foam canon and an Aldi version, honestly no difference in performance, Bowdens just looks nicer.

    Same use as above. Both Snow Job and Nanolicious 2ltr bottles have lasted me over 18 months. I generally buy 2ltr bottles when on sale at Autobarn or Supercheap. Snowjob is not a carwash, it is a pre-wash or to wash off light dust and bird poop, etc... it's a great product.

    A way around the Meguiar's solution issue is to just put the wash into the bottle first. Adding water will agitate and help it dilute. Also why didn't you do a higher dilution ratio with the Meguiar's but you did with the armorall? Your video so you have every right to do what you want of course. Just curious.

    Not really a fair comparison as the Bowden’s is an actual snow foam.. where as the other 2 are car shampoos not snow foams, which are applied after the snow foam application (pre wash), try using the maguires ultimate snow foam the that’ll be a fair comparison to the Bowden’s.

    Also your spraying soap over soap over soap. use the cheap shit first then the bowdens and itl do the same. leaves a film that helps dirt water etc slide off. Bowdens isnt some scientific miracle. Its just marketing. Like meguiars for example they put a scent in their products so you associate it with their brand.
