Full Description

The Sam’s Detailing Snow Foam 500ml is a high-cling pre-wash solution designed to safely loosen and lift dirt, road film and traffic grime before contact washing. By softening contamination and encapsulating particles, it reduces the risk of swirl marks and scratches during the main wash stage.

Developed with a pH-neutral formula, this Snow Foam is safe for regular use on all exterior surfaces, including waxes, sealants and ceramic coatings. Its thick, stable foam provides extended dwell time on the vehicle surface, allowing the cleaning agents to break down dirt without damaging protective layers.

Technical Features:

  • Type: pH neutral snow foam pre-wash
  • Bottle Size: 500ml concentrate
  • Dilution Ratios:
    • Foam Lance: 1:10 to 1:20 depending on desired thickness
    • Pump Sprayer: 1:20 for lighter cleaning or maintenance washes
  • Surface Safety: Safe on waxes, sealants, ceramics, paintwork, plastics and glass
  • Foam Behaviour: Thick, clinging foam with extended dwell time

Applications:

  • Pre-wash to reduce swirl risk during contact washing
  • Regular maintenance washes on protected vehicles
  • Safe cleaning of paintwork, glass, plastics and trims
  • Effective on daily drivers and performance cars alike

Benefits:

  • Loosens dirt and grime safely before hand washing
  • pH neutral, safe on all protection layers
  • Thick, stable foam maximises dwell time for improved cleaning
  • Reduces swirl marks and scratches during washing
  • Professional results for enthusiasts and detailers
  • HQ Suggests (Tips & Insights):
  • 💡 Always use Snow Foam on a cool surface, out of direct sunlight, to prevent premature drying.
  • 💡 Adjust your foam lance dilution to achieve a blanket of clingy foam, thicker foam for heavy soiling, lighter foam for maintenance washes.
  • 💡 Allow the foam to dwell for 3-5 minutes, but never let it dry on the surface.
  • 💡 Follow with a two-bucket wash method to maximise paint safety.
  • 💡 For best results, pair with Sam’s Detailing Shampoo for the contact wash stage.
