Dedicated Foam Gun Wash

[Rick]

Anyone have a dedicated go to product for the foam gun?
I have no problem spending a few dollars on a quality wash product but I have a hard time putting it in the foam gun!
Thoughts please and thanks in advance.

Autobrite Magifoam from the UK. Anything other than a dedicated snow foam is simply foamy car wash. I buy 10L at a time and working directly with Jill at ABUK makes the shipping not quite as painful as a root canal. Corey can comment on the reformulated snow soap from CP, I haven't had a chance to try it yet. The only alternative I find even remotely close here in the US would be a heavy concentration of Meg's Hyper-Wash.

I've never been a foam gun type guy but IXSS works great with it - Brandon over at EAS uses this method regularly.

IXSS is my favorite soap to use with the CarPro foam cannon and foams really nice.

Agreed it does work great in a foam gun. One question I have is since it's such a heavy duty cleaner(a lot of people including myself)use it for a pre wash before paint correction and another prior to coating, wouldn't it take off any LSP's? If the car is coated it's not a concern, but to use on a car with wax or sealant wouldn't be a good idea unless you are planning on adding another layer of LSP.

Am I correct in thinking this?

Yes, your right on bud! It will degrade older tech like sealants and waxes. It shouldn't affect hydro2 or reload though.

That I was not aware of. Thanks for the reply!
