Sorry its 22.50 for 5litres. Overall a good product that has the appearence of a thick "scene" foamy prewash. But does have strong cleaning and degreasing. I see it more as a trade product for neglected cars and commercial vehicles. Its no where near as caustic as truck wash. Problem with this trade TFR market is you can get 25 litres for this sort of price. But keeping it very simple I was pretty impressed.
They also do a caustic free maxi mousse also. I carry them both on the van. Maybe you could do a video trying the non caustic version see what you think
Thank you for the product review! Great to hear your feedback on the product. I think you were spot on with the main use for this product. We are bringing out a new pre wash this year that is going to be a lot 'safer'. We might even add a fragrance to Snowstorm now!
I've just started using Maxi Mouse, and i think it's amazing! It actually cleans, unlike most snowfoams. It is strong, so maybe just use it every 5th wash if you're worried about the strength? Definitely good for winter use with all the grim. Brand snobs will put it down, but i think you have to give it a go.
This stuff is up there with the best of them. I use touchless on moderate dirt. But on really filthy stuff in the REAL world, this product is king. You will see plenty of commercial vehicles being cleaned with it.That tells its own story..
Jenny chem pretty decent tbh , people panic about caustic or alkaline but this snowfoam actually does what we all want in a snowfoam . Think some forget the purpose of the Job of a snowfoam. It's ideal for fleet wash or vans
I've been using this Jennychem foam throughout winter for the past few years and love it. Just like your results prove it shifts loads of dirt with ease. I don't use it in warmer months as it's a bit overkill if the car is only dusty so I can see why you wouldn't use it on your immaculate cars. 😊
That insanely glossy E36 keeps giving me inspiration for going out to polish and wax Little Vicki, my Volkswagen Polo. She's not exotic by any stretch of the imagination, but she's very well put together and also richly finished in deep metallic Diamond Black, so the gloss should be the same, if never better. She is getting there, though.
I think the touchless is probably still better and more advanced for normal dirt and road film, less oily dirt. also gentler. I personally wouldn't use this regularly. touchless technologically best snow foam I ever used
can't go wrong with this product at all...does what it says on the tin - if your car is heavily soiled ( like mine at the moment ) this is definitely a good shout...I wonder how well this would do the tyre walls and would it be better at shifting the ingrained dirt from the wheels so when you shine them up afterwards, would it look mint and look professionally cleaned? also, I'm guessing, pure guess, for the engine bay it would have to be cold and you'd use a detail brush to get into those hard to reach places and thoroughly rinse off?
Use Jennychem stuff for a while, good company to deal with and may not be world leaders but good products for there price, especially there tyre shine stuff.
Used this a few times now. It is brilliant on heavy dirt and grim. I wouldn't use it for a general wash on a well looked after car. So for me the wifes motor will get this jennychem one and my cars stick with bilthamber.
This looks like a fantastic TFR for self-employed valeters like ourselves who are always looking for good value, albeit high quality wash concentrates. The only thing preventing me pulling the trigger on this product, is the fact that it may be a bit too strong for some bare plastic surfaces and bright-coloured brake and suspension componentry. For example, we valet plenty of VAG rubbish in my garage, most come with black plastic alloy wheel nut covers. Would this TFR have the potential to make these black caps turn white, and darken the calipers?
I've used it on my cars for a few years in the colder months and never had trouble with plastic trim or anything like that. It's just like any other snowfoam in that respect.
Jenny chem I think is very caustic and would strip any protection on the vehicle and long term dull the paint quite badly TFR always sets the alarm bells off for me .
i recently got turtlewax pro valetting line of snowfoam for 20 quid off ebay... i use 1 to 4 ratio for the mix... honestly im really impressed with it... it gets the dirt off and leaves the surface slightly lubricated if that makes sense... easy to wash and dry after
The same thing happened with my lid on the touch-less bottle, I ended up putting the we lid from auto wash bottle on it as I have a dilution thing on that now.
Slightly off-topic, but I noticed a pristine Estoril Blue T-plate BMW 840Ci in traffic this morning. It has the same split-rim alloys as your E36. It's got to be one of the last ones made if it's on a T, they started on an H.
Seems like a good product, use some caution and it'll be fine I'm sure. BH works great in my situation, I use ceramic coatings and dirt generally flys off. Personally, I don't really want to use an ultra strong precleaner as its just not needed for my conditions. During the summer months I'm using Touch-less at around 1% old formula with 20ml of Koch Chemie GSF for the fragrance mainly. That's a perfect amount of precleaner mix before Carpro Reset shampoo and a sachet of Touch-on once a month. I mainly use a rinseless wash 60% of the time now. P&S Absolute is my current favourite. I hear Gtechiq might have something in the pipeline, possibly for next year 🤗. Jon, as rinseless washes are becoming more popular, perhaps that might make for a good group test this summer maybe? Bilt Hamber if you're watching....a dedicated rinseless or Rinse-less (1st for namimg that one 😂) would be great 👍
@@79blustone I would say better cleaning ability and ease of use, that leaves nothing behind, even left to dry, in high heat or direct sunlight, dry spots wipe right of with no haze/streaks.
@scottohms2799 I think you're probably right. I'm interested in this brand, apparently they make some good detailing spray too. I believe they've got ceramic infused and normal detailer. I think I might grab a bottle of Hero on my next order. I think either In2detailing, Slims, clean your car, clean and shiny stock this brand. I shall take a look now! 👍
Would you mind doing a full range test on jennychem? Citrus, regular snowstorm, foam wash, ceramic wash, glass cleaner etc. I live near them and wana know if its worth paying a visit or if I should just go with bilt hamber.
Hiya great video as always you don't miss a trick. I've a bit of a worry on some Car Chem first base pre wash, after it caused some damage to my diamond cut alloys, (brand new) I investigated as it said was safe to leave for 10 minutes neat and can be watered down to 10:1 the label shows a negative PH but no number but on the dial around PH 9-10 but when I measured it with litmus paper it's PH 14. How can a product with PH 14 not cause damage? it says safe on all paint and wheels. Could you explain in simple terms what we should be aiming for regarding PH levels on any paintwork and wheels please?
Depends what's meant by better. The dirt simm is about degreasing mainly. So some of the caustic components in the tfr don't come into play. But normally the bh is the king of dirt simm killing. But yer it was not a massive shock really. This tfr takes no prisoner's it's strong but more trade tool.
@@ForensicDetailing yes you're right on it depends what "better" means; I've been using Koch Vb quite a lot recently due to working on some absolutely hanging cars that's needed ALL the bite.
I would not use it for that. This is strong stuff I would use it for really heavy cleaning of hammered cars that are plastered in dirt. not well maintained cars, or exotics.
Jennychem do a snowstorm non caustic one. Really lsp safe. I used it at 25 percent pir in a spare bottle and rinsed with hose and car was clean. Good for a weekly wash. The ceramic snow foam good too
Just an observation Jon but I think the touchless dirt film looks noticeably thicker than the jennychem side which would impact the results if the thicker dirt layer on the outer edges of both is anything to go by? Might need to further test is but regardless, certainly looks potent the Jennychem. How does it compare at a weaker dilution, say 1% PIR?
It's possible m8 that can have an impact. But as soon as the Jenny chemist hit it I could see instant emulsifying. I don't think here's anything surprising with results. This product is a caustic tfr versus a bio based pure surfactant. This tfr is really for very dirty commercial vehicles or poorly maintained beaters that have not been cleaned for a year. Its good but like I say I prefer a safer product and of course jennychem have those offerings too but I think Touch-less will be hard to beat in that field.
@@ForensicDetailing I think future tests with lower dilutions compared to BH touchless at 2% PIR is in order 😉 Maybe give the non caustic version a test as well?
Would have preferred to see the car bonnet tested with both products in a snowflake format as I will not be pouring my prewash on panels out of a plastic beaker
Jon not related I have just brought a black car and wondered what polish you would recommend as I hate to see black cars with black smearing regards Tim
@@ForensicDetailing I spoke to them on the phone. So I have no way of pasting it. An yes they did. Obviously I'd say it would depend on whatever dilution someone uses.
I use Tar remover from Jenny chemm and it works really well , i know it's there own brand but is it worth doing a feature on some of there products to see if it's a good cheaper alternative ?
I agree with you the results are amazing, that's why I do use it. But I do agree with Jon that bilt hamber is king as he has proved many, many times in terms of cleaning and cost tho? I use many different brands, but I always come back to the hamber thanks to Jon!
there is almost nothing I disagree with you with but I do not understand why you always use the same volume of liquid in snow foam tests, surely it should be the manufactures recommended concentration. we just saw bilt hammer reduce the level of water in their touchless to make it more concentrated to save weight in transport. concentration of product not so related to cleaning power or cost per wash. Also I am a huge fan of strong snow foams to prevent swirls but I think half their power comes from lubing the dirt and not just cleaning it off. I think the lubed dirt that remains swirls a lot less than would otherwise.
They are everywhere. Every Time I foam the care. Whatever I do, even I switch methods it's wrong. If I apply bottem to top it's wrong, if I rinse top to bottom it's other way. If sun is out car will melt. Rinse angle was 40 degrees needs to be 56, foam most be put on horizontally etc.. snow foam ninjarism is real!
It's not that cheap at 22.50 compared to some trade brands. You could get 5 litres of tfr for 10 to 15 quid. But detailing brand tfr can often be 20 to 30+. It's not bad price though. If u want rock bottem chem cost buy bonnymans. If u want very low chem cost but higher quality than Bonny's try A-chem or Car chem.

What's it like for cleaning in foam form Vs the touchless?
@@loman0071 the foam plays no role in that mate. the foam is there because we all want to see foam. if its runny we think its poor quality.

There's a Non Caustic variant of this which would be an even better test against Touch-less!

Great helpful video. Just 1 observationn 1:4 rayioo is 20% not 2% so its 20ml to 80ml.
No 1 to 4 is about 2% pir in snow foam lance. It's 20% in pump sprayer. Etc. don't use at 20% u will melt car. See how to calc pir video

What letter reg did say it was on?
I’ve been eyeing up this snow foam for a while but I still have 4.5 liters of auto foam and 1 litre of touchless to get through 😂
A test on its effect on coatings and waxes would be interesting. I’d imagine it would hammer such as Fusso?
Jennychem tyre shine is great as well 👍👍👍👍👍
Seems like a good product, use some caution and it'll be fine I'm sure.

Yer you need like the perfect winter film. But we just don't have that on demand. Dirty simm Comes in handy.

Use the non caustic version for a car with protection/sealant on it. Hopefully John will review that too see if it is as powerful as the caustic one.
