100ml Wash Shot

No measurement, ratios or dilution necessary. Pour the entire contents of the 100ml bottle into a Snow Foam lance. Top up with 900ml of clean water and apply.

The bottles and the 5 litre can

MethodDILUTION
The ratio is the same however it goes on. What changes is how much you mix: a snow foam lance bottle holds a litre, a pressure sprayer usually holds five or ten.
Heavy contamination 1:4. Regular maintenance 1:9. Light soiling 1:15.
Guidelines rather than rules. How strong you go comes down to how dirty the car is.

03 Method

Application.

  1. Dilute as required.
  2. Apply to a cool vehicle from the bottom upwards.
  3. Allow to dwell for 3-5 minutes.
  4. Do not allow product to dry.
  5. Rinse thoroughly using a pressure washer.

04 In the order

Where it goes.

Step 1 of 11, in the part of the wash we call “nothing touches the car”. It is the first thing on the car, and FOAM follows it.

Nothing has touched the paint at this point, and that is the whole reason it goes first. Whatever ZEST lifts off here is grit that never gets dragged across a panel by a mitt.

Sprayer at 1:9, one litre of mix works out at about £2.00 a wash from a 500ml bottle, or £1.50 a wash from a 1 litre.

See it in place in the full wash, with the measure and the dwell for every stage either side of it.
