powermaxed tfr vs snow foam

[littleade]

You can all blame me!!

As if I would....anyhooo if anyone wants 5L, is prepared to pick it up from worcestershire and has their own container PM me!

[littleade]

Wifes car is mega filthy..So Im going to add about 1/2" : 1" of Snow Foam : the rest with water in a 1litre SF bottle and see how much dirt it takes off

Watch this space

you could do 1/2 & 1/2 as in 1/2 her car with just SF and the other with the tfr added. I like to give people challlenges........

Top man-I hope it works as I've got 15L of snowfoam to get through LOL...

[littleade]

When you tried it on its own did you pre jetwash your car 1st Chris? Nice wheels BTW-can't remember seeing those in the Summer?

OK

Murray getting beaten so gave up watching it and decided to wash the DS3 as described

Before shot:

First applied regular Valet Pro Snow Foam to the drivers door

Then mixed up some Power Maxed TFR in the spare bottle with the Snow Foam in the quantities displayed and topped up the 1 litre bottle with warm water:

Then with Snow Foam

Then applied to rear panel adjacent to the door

Left to dwell for 10 minutes..Then powerwashed off

The Door:

Next panel with the mix applied:

Conclusions:

Very hard to see in the Photos, but the door was definately not as clean...ie..The Snow Foam itself did not do as good a job as the mix

Notice too that the existing LSP protection is still there..Totally unaffected!!

Great stuff Chris, so 1/2" TFR and 1" Snowfoam worked better than SF alone, which will be really useful this time of year-did SWMBO car this morning and the SF didn't get rid of all of the muck so I look forward to giving this a go. How did you think the SF/TFR combo compared with just the TFR as I'm guessing the TFR/SF combo would be a far weaker solution coming out of the SF lance once the jetwash has added more water to produce the foam than the TFR applied with the hand sprayer?

[ChrisRs]

TFR diluted to 10/12:1 will work better

BUT

This combo mix is better than SF on its own..so all in all a win win!!

[Watsona6]

Interesting. Will give it a go next weekend on my dirty car and let you know how I get on

[kentphil1]

Forgive me for I have weakened....not saying how much I ordered though..... :-)

Good to see I'm not the only one with weak willpower on here

[littleade]

Good to see I'm not the only one with weak willpower on here

maybe on reflection I have no willpower at all LOL......just 25L of TFR on the way!

Thats a lot !!

Just so I'm not confused (easily done at my age!) did you dilute the TFR before putting it with the snow foam in the bottle?

[littleade]

Well........ the 25L was a much better deal than the 5L and with 25% off it had to be done... I just can't resist a bargain. Therapy is needed me thinks.....that or I need to make some friends and sell them some!

No..just a small amount then some snow foam, then filled up with water as I described Mike

[ChrisRs]

Get some litre bottles and do a Group Buy Ade

That's not a bad idea Chris. I'll look into the p&p costs to see if it would be possible to cover the costs and still be a useful saving to other members of the forum.

Cheers

Mini review comparing Citrus Pre Wash and the Power Maxed TFR.

 

Car has Collinite on it which has been on for about 3 months;

 

Started like this;

 

 

Sprayed TFR on the left (as you look at the rear) and Citrus on the right. Products left to dwelled for 5 minutes (they were both diluted 1:10) then just jet washed off..

 

Finished results;

 

 

TFR side;

 

 

Citrus side;

 

 

TFR out performs the Citrus by a reasonable margin IMO.
