prepping before foaming?

hi guys

do you spray the car wet with the hose before you foam the car?
or do you just foam it while its dry?

IMO doesnt make bugger all difference. I do wet it first but I have done it dry and saw no difference.

Still wet it before foaming..... I just dont like change though

i guess use a pressure first is good to get rid of the big dirt then loosen the smaller dirt lol

then the foam does its thing

I pressure it off with water first, then in with the THICK snow foam, then off with wate again. Find it works nicely that way.

It clings a bit better if the car is dry.

It's a waste of time anyway - just get a decent degreaser and pressure wash that off

i never jetwash it anymore first because you create a kind off sandblasting effect then

so firstly I wet it, then foam and then the jetwash

then wash it but I haven't tried the 2bucket method then...

You foam but don't TBM?

I pressure wash down, then snow foam if necessary. To be honest, the car travels so few miles nowadays it barely needs washing weekly.

Pressure wash first, then snow foam, rinse, then 2BM.
