Just got off the phone to Mark at Autobrite. They are in transit to him so payment to me asap please. They'll be out as soon as he's received them. We're sorting out 1 big payment and he then then send out individually to you.

If you want 1 litre of ssf add £5 (£3 for ssf and £2 for extra postage)

if you want 5 litres of ssf add £11 (£9 for ssf and £2 for extra postage)

for pressure washer details i'm just waiting on models he can get etc.

yes we will need to wait for the cheques to clear but the foam lances are still in transit from germany so it should tie in quite nicely.

would prefer payment by chq or paypal tbh, not too keen on handing out my bank details. paypal is instant so quicker than a bank transfer.

Can I ask another question?

How much SSF is required in the bottle for a single blanket covering on a car the size of a 5 series

Also, would the standard bottle be good enough to hold enough SSF mixture or would i have to keep topping it.

cheers

the bottle that comes with the lance is a 1 litre bottle. i have a dispensing pump (from polished bliss) on my 5 litre bottle and put in 3 squirts of ssf and top up with warm water. this is plenty to do even a ford galaxy at full foam mix without topping up

O so 5ltr should last me good time taking into account 1 wash every week

yup. to give you an idea of how long, i'm only half way through a gallon of megs hyper wash and a third into my 5 litre of ssf (had the hyper wash before the ssf and also use this for putting in the clean bucket for the 2 bucket clean process). must have done about 15 - 20 cars out of them.

i end up foaming each car 2 or 3 times on average during the wash and clay process. sometimes more. depends on what i've got to do to the car though.

it's never a problem to get hold of ssf. although works out more cost effective to get the 5 litre. only £9 compared to £15 if you bought 5 1 litre bottles.
