I have just purchased a Karcher pressure washer and FJ10C foam lance and have to say it did a pretty decent job on my Volvo V70, I think the problem here may not be the foam lance itself, rather it is the Karcher foam liquid itself that is supplied with it, sorry Karcher your liquid just does not cut it, one of the best foam liquids available, that I have tried is the Bilt Hamber auto foam/ snow foam, it is highly rated by many as the best on the market, and I will be trying the Bilt Hamber product in it next, which I believe will give far better results, also here's a tip when you put the measured amount of snow foam liquid in the bottle, top it up to your level with hot water, this will give you a better/thicker foam application onto the car.
I bought it today, the normal FJ6 nozzle without karcher fluid, along with demon foam. Im quite impressed if im honest for 15quid from halfords cant go wrong and PS i did not need an adapter for my k2 karcher
Got the foam lance for my K4 and i find it ok, although the snow foam seams to be too diluted even on the max setting. Think the karcher snow foam liquid is a bit expensive at 7.99 a bottle. Autoglym have just launched their snow foam liquid so may give that a try and just refill the karcher holder.
I have this and so dose a frend found out that if u buy snow foam from another company and use the lance it turned out cheaper and got better foam i used chemical guys and auto finess
Should just water blast first , then foam , water blast off , foam again , then use mitten and again w/blast off , finally use leaf blower to dry and take for a drive.
Actually it's wise to rinse off the foam from the bottom to the top. Otherwise it would all just run down and form a thick line of foam at the bottom, which can be difficult to get off if left on for too long and even damage the paint
of course the car is still dirty, you clearly don't know the correct way to clean a car with a snow foam lance. Rinse the car first Snow Foam Wait a short period Wash the car with a microfiber cloth Rinse. And you have a clean car There is more to it like making sure to have clean water during the washing process and change the cloth frequently to prevent scratching. When done right you will get excellent results but if you expect just to be able to foam a dry car and then pressure wash it off it will always be dirty when you finish.
I haven't found a foamer yet that gives the amount of foam you see some people get. I use bilt hamber foam which is ok as a product but I don't think snow foam is all that. Should wash the MR2 really! Craig....you let us down on the swearing lol
Hey Mark, stumbled upon your post here while looking up some reviews. I have a foam lance turning up tomorrow and am interested to see how it works with the WB 120 brush :)
So funny how noobs have no idea what they do and waste too much shampoo for nothing...if you foam from the roof to door handles you can skip wasting on the lower part as the foam will run down the bodywork and work its magic anyway. I bet you even wash from the wheels up :-D

supposed to wash first, then foam, then shampoo and sponge. the foam alone only lifts dirt, it does not do the job on its own
And never aim the lance forward only towards the back of the car when you wash around sealings otherwise you compromise them 😉
Same principle as a Japanese Bath. Agitate with a wash first, then soak it in foam.
rinse, foam, shampoo
Agreed, maybe give the car a chance, pre wash, get the crap off
citizenerased1992 wrong! Those foams are designed to remove dirt without touching the car !

I was actually surprised how well it foamed up, like you have heard not so great reviews.
Zed Man yeah surprised me to I won’t be buying the Karcher soap anymore but I will try other products in it 👍🏻

3:08 forcing water inside the cabin... that'll test your weather seals
Someone's drawn a rocket ship on the rear bumper......
Supposed to jet wash it first then use the foam.duhh
The tail gate!!!
You're English not bloody American man!! 😂
Should just water blast first , then foam , water blast off , foam again , then use mitten and again w/blast
off , finally use leaf blower to dry and take for a drive.
You’re supposed to jet wash it first before foaming. Also you need to wash the foam off from top to bottom
Ian O'Flynn precisely my thought.. rubbing the sand in the paint
Actually it's wise to rinse off the foam from the bottom to the top. Otherwise it would all just run down and form a thick line of foam at the bottom, which can be difficult to get off if left on for too long and even damage the paint
Looks pretty good to me and you wouldn’t want more anywya surely
How often do you need to replace those shampoo bottles, i.e. how how many washes
Hi, would you like to review the new MJJC foam lance Pro?
I want.. send me please.
Hello I have question for you. while you are doing to this foam, is off water or is open?
always open, its a preasure washer, water has to flow constantly.
of course the car is still dirty, you clearly don't know the correct way to clean a car with a snow foam lance.
Rinse the car first
Snow Foam
Wait a short period
Wash the car with a microfiber cloth
Rinse.
And you have a clean car
There is more to it like making sure to have clean water during the washing process and change the cloth frequently to prevent scratching.
When done right you will get excellent results but if you expect just to be able to foam a dry car and then pressure wash it off it will always be dirty when you finish.

It’s all about the lance mate, I think you need to spend some money on one to get good foamage that sticks!
Zed Man yeah...my son bought me some super dupa one. Maybe my karcher hasn't the oomph :)
Dad Diaries haha he didn’t , makes my job harder so much editing il do an unedited video of the whole weekend lol .
It's about getting the right combination of washer, lance, snow foam. Some are designed for low pressure washers like the k2.
