I have finally got around to cleaning the car, i do not like cleaning the car when it is windy unless I really need to.

A good spray of snow foam dissolved all the brake dust, flies and cow crud :)

You need an applicator for your Karcher and a Gallon of Snow Foam and you are good to go.

Dilute the foam in the applicator and spray onto a dry car. Leave for a few minutes then rinse off with the jet wash not on full power. This process helps reduce swirls on the paint. You can still give it a quick wash with a wash mit, to be doubly sure the car is spotless.

Snow foamed, washed, dried, tidied up with car back in its bay took 40 minutes. :)

Previous - 997 GTS with aerokit, aqua/black, PDK - Fantastic car would recommend.
997 C2S with aerokit, basalt/black, manual - Good car with great feel. More authentic than the GTS (PDK) but less capable.

Thanks for those Al, I'll take a look over the next few days.

Never too late, nice to have a reminder of it all, seems like a long time ago already!

All those places are covered in snow now.
