While were here actually how do people use this?

Spray onto dry paint? Leave to dwell then hose off?

It's my favorite product to be honest.

Adam, I usually jet wash most of the dirt of first. But last week I spayed citrus of straight away and it seemed to do the job better. I suppose the water makes it a little weaker.

It is a fantastic product, just a little pricey for regular use.

I tried it diluted 1:1 with water and it's still as affecting as carplan rapid dirt shifter and makes it a little more reasonable on price for regular use, then save it nest for really grubby cars.

I've almost run out and unsure what to buy again as VP citrus pre wash is quite a bit cheaper but I have heard of some reports of it degrading a normal wax or sealant.

I also have a 5L bottle of VP Citrus and find it not anywhere near as affective as AF Citrus Power. Its still good though and a lot cheaper!

Out of interest, if you poured a little Citrus pre wash in with the snow foam, then foamed car. Worth it or a waste?

Slightly less grime cutting than just spraying it on and pressure rinsing off, but as good as a cheapo snowfoam. But yes very similar in use to avalanche just not quite as powerful.

If like me you use a fair amount of pre wash its really worth buying something like citrus power in 5l bottles. Being able to dilute it makes it almost as cost effective as the special offer RDS.

Ry, you got enough VP citrus to sell off 500ml?

I'd say so yeah, for you?

Yeah fancied giving it a try side by side with citrus power.

Plan is to go nano sealant so shouldn't need anything too powerful. Isn't you 200 wearing CQUK?

I bought a few bottles of CP back when PB had their 3 for 2 offer on, now I'm on the last bottle I'm unsure if I'll buy any more. Price is its only draw back really. If it could perform as well when diluted down then it'd make for a very good value for money product. Whereas currently its a costly pre-wash solution in my eyes.

Perhaps that could be the revised formula, a stronger concentrate?




also I think Ry should be brought in to oversee/improve all packaging designs etc

Is snow foam only really meant as a pre wash? For example... snow foam, rinse off then use a shampoo with a mitt or similar like normal?

If I'm honest, I completely agree!!

They looked into a concentrate I believe but packaging became an issue.

If you are likely to use it, or can sell it on, buy 5L of CP works at £6/7 a litre. It does work as well as rapid dirt shifer when diluted 1:1 as well.

I thought it was to be used instead of a shampoo and bucket like at do it yourself car wash places lol.

you can always spray a watery foam over the car to help lube the panel with your normal shampoo wash. I sometimes do this on really dirty cars.

Cheers for the heads up Dave, that reminds me I've still got 3 bottles of RDS in the garage. Bought so many bottles of that, Hot Wheels and all the other stuff that kept appearing on offer
