Great looking foam! Foaming is the only way to go when it comes to cleaning a car thoroughly.

I'm a n00b to foaming so can anyone explain? Is it a simple foam on, and rinse off or do you lather it in?

what i've been doing - if the car is dirty

foam

let it sit for a few minutes to "dwell"

spray off with soap (my power washer has a soaping option)

then bucket wash - then power wash rinse

my car is spotless so i just foam and rinse for a touch free car wash

the premise behind the foam is that it takes most of the dirt off before a bucket was so you don't swirl the paint
