Expert Notes

Diamond Performance Snow Foam is a pH neutral, wax bearing foam supplied in a 500ml bottle, diluted at around 200:1 using 1 to 2 caps of solution for every 500ml of water. It is designed as a pre-wash stage: foam it over a rinsed vehicle, leave it to dwell for about 5 minutes, then wash with a mitt and rinse with clean water. Used this way it helps loosen dirt before contact washing rather than replacing the wash itself. It suits owners running a foam lance or pressure washer foam attachment as part of a regular routine, and pairs well with a dedicated shampoo, a wash mitt and a two bucket method for the contact wash that follows.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Painted bodywork
  • Roofs and bonnets
  • Doors and panels
  • Wheel arches
  • Pre-wash foam stage
  • Cars and vans

Caution: Do not let the foam dry on the panel, and always follow it with a full contact wash rather than using foam alone.

The Brand

Diamond Performance

Diamond Performance is a car care range sold in black bottles with yellow branding and a stylised D and P logo. The brand's own website, diamond-performance.co.uk, is mainly a car styling shop, selling parts such as gloss black badge covers for the Renault Clio, roll cage protectors and wing mirror covers, along with domed Diamond Performance logo badges. The same site has listed the car care products, describing its Mild Wheel Cleaner as made in the UK, and each label states key facts about the formula, such as pH neutral or non caustic.

The Drivers HQ stocks Diamond Performance for the wash. There is the All in One Snow Foam, the TFR Traffic Film Remover and the 2in1 Car Shampoo, which is labelled as a shampoo and wax, and the Motorbike Cleaner covers motorbikes and bikes.

Diamond Performance suits drivers who want a straightforward wash kit without a shelf full of specialist bottles. A simple routine starts with the snow foam or the traffic film remover to loosen road grime, followed by a wash with the 2in1 Car Shampoo. Always follow the directions on each label.

Buy Diamond Performance from The Drivers HQ with UK-wide delivery, or call in at our walk-in store in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, where Click & Collect is free. The snow foam, TFR and shampoo cover the wash stage on their own, and you can add anything else from the rest of our car care and detailing range in the same order.

Styling Parts and Clearly Labelled Care

Diamond Performance is not only a car care name. Its own website, diamond-performance.co.uk, sells car styling parts such as gloss black badge covers for the Renault Clio, roll cage protectors and wing mirror covers in a carbon effect finish, alongside domed Diamond Performance logo badges.

The same site has listed Diamond Performance car care products, and its description of the Mild Wheel Cleaner shows the brand's approach: non caustic, safe on painted and aluminium wheels, containing no acids or solvents, and made in the UK. The listing also said the cleaner was safe to use on brake pads, paintwork, rubber, suspension seals and anodised surfaces.

That approach carries across the labels. Each bottle states the key facts on the front: the shampoo, snow foam, TFR and motorbike cleaner are marked pH neutral and non caustic, the tyre dressing and the Strong & Smelly Wheel Cleaner are marked acid free and pH balanced, and the glass cleaner is marked alcohol based.

Diamond Performance 3 in 1 Quick Detailer - The Drivers HQ

What Each Bottle Is For

The wash products are all labelled pH neutral and non caustic. The All in One Snow Foam contains wax and is marked 200:1, the TFR Traffic Film Remover is marked 400:1, and the 2in1 Car Shampoo combines shampoo and wax in what the label calls a mild formula, also marked 200:1.

For wheels and tyres, the Mild Wheel Cleaner is non caustic and safe on painted and aluminium wheels, while the Strong & Smelly Wheel Cleaner is acid free, pH balanced and labelled safe on aluminium wheels. The Long Lasting Tyre & Trim Shine/Dressing is silicone based, acid free and pH balanced, for tyres and trim.

To finish, the 3 in 1 Quick Detailer is labelled to clean, polish and protect without water and contains carnauba wax, and the Super Shine Glass Cleaner is alcohol based. The Super Shine Motorbike & Bike Cleaner, pH neutral and non caustic, takes the same approach to motorbikes and bicycles, so the range covers two wheels as well as four.
