    Great reviews. I love their stuff and keep trying new things with the 3 main cleaners, AF, AW and Surfex.
    Surfex in an ik foamer for wheels works well. But today tried surfex on wheels, rinse, then AW in ik foamer. Didn't work well. So added a dollop of my secret ingredient (Autoglanz foam booster) and now i have an awesome high foaming, nicely clingy wheel shampoo.
    I'm a scientist!

    BH products never cease to amaze me as for how good they are, no frilly packaging, and sensibly priced. However, maybe it's just my bad luck but....I recently got a 1 litre bottle of Auto-Wash. It's the new style bottle, looks like the Auto-QD bottle only taller. After 3 or 4 uses, the spout that folds out from the lid became blocked with product. It's a very narrow spout, but may be prone to blocking with product....time will tell.
    Worst case will be a quick rinse after dispensing or I may drill it out a bit to make it bigger. Or, dispense it into my old style bottle....which would seem a shame really. The spout promotes using sparingly....but hopefully won't keep clogging up. Still the same fantastic product which I've been using for many years.

    • @thecarboutique2467
      @thecarboutique2467  3 года назад

      I saw they had changed their packaging but I can remember reading they were having difficulty with their bottle supplier. The bottle that I have is perfect. And I agree, if I get more in the New bottle I'm going to decant it into the old bottle. Cheers for the heads up buddy.

      Interesting and informative video. Well done that man! I'm just a layperson and have used all Bilt Hamber products. I dont want to wax lyrical but they are quite simply head,shoulders and feather cap above the competition. Nothing comes close! I have a white Honda civic and have tried hundreds of different products with mix results. Just using Bilt Hamber Auto foam and then the auto wash shampoo my car looks amazingly clean. Incredible products. I use the auto QD at a 10 to 1 ratio to bring the paint work to a 5 star level. It works wonderful for me at this ratio. Also they are superb value for money

    Been using Bilt Hamber products for a while now. Being a valeter myself I must agree as a range their products are hard to beat. Auto wheel is probably the best wheel cleaner on the market. Auto foam is probably the most effective snow foam as well. Not super foamy but that’s only good for photos. Amazing at stripping dirt from the car before the contact wash. Great video and review mate look forward to more

    Been getting kit together for the last few months as have an interest in detailing, after doing a lot of research started on BH snow, surfex and double speed wax, it makes perfect sense to use these as good value and excellent results, just got the auto wash to try for next clean also. Not impressed with fancy packaging and different colours, only results.

    Their touchless snow foam is something to be admired here in So Cal. Hard to appreciate if you aren’t used to dumb foam soaps. 4/5 these days leave wax behind. Doesn’t flash on hot paint, rinses easy, breaks off bug guts like nothing before. No need for TFR. Amazing stuff I’ll never switch as long as he doesn’t change the recipe 😅

The hose is the standard Karcher hose with the Karcher extension hose added. I would not recommend this hose, I would buy a decent 1 from Hoses Direct.

    How would calculate BH Auto Foam if you were using a pump sprayer rather then a foam cannon?
    Let say the car is moderately dirty

    • @thecarboutique2467
      @thecarboutique2467  3 года назад

      Hiya Steven. Thanks for message. If your using a pump sprayer it is a lot easier. To get 4 % PIR all.you need to do is mix a 4% mix in your pump bottle.eg
      If you had a 5L pump spray you would do 5000 × 0.04 = 200. So put 200ml of foam mix in your bottle and top up with water to 5L. There is no additional water to factor in using a pump spray to just mix the 4% in pump bottle and start spraying.
