I've got the Cherry Snow foam.
texted ReaChem this afternoon, and the responce was turn the lance to Fan Spray, use half an inch of snow foam and alterthe - & + till you get the mix right.
It was better but i use 1.5" of solution.
Still not really really thick though.
But you can see the dirt run down, Then I sponge over it all again and jet was off.
The car look clean :0

I ordered this 2 days ago after a recommendation from a friend.

Ive got as much flow as the water board will give me LOL.
I got one anyway great machine blasted loads of **** off Next purchase is a foam add-on, the unit i have does have 2 detergent bottles built in but these are low pressure ones.
As for washing the wax off, Look for PH balanced foams this helps keep it on

looks like there is too much water coming through it... also turn the Fan to wide.

I'm using the meguires stuff, says 400:1 dilution!
Using a foam lance for hosepipe from I think Polished Bliss... was going to get a presure washer version as I thouight my foam was a bit thin, poor, not sticking for minutes... but looks like most of the ones above so probably not too bad a job!
I need to play with settings then.

Done mine again yesterday. On the heavy duty autobrite lance wind the dial all the way to the minus sign. About a 100ml of i4detailing snow foam in the bottom of a 1 litre lance bottle will give you the results that I posted up.
I have a new Karscher jet washer, not used yet, but still using my old power deveil cheap and cheerfull unit!
No idea what fittings it has for foam agent bottles, but may as well break out the Karscher next time!
And get a jet wash bottle for a better foam, and maybe try some of this cherry foam!

Do you just hook up to the warm water tap?
I fill the bottle with warm water but use cold as normal in the pressure washer.
A lot of the pro detailers have the very expensive pressure washers that can deliver water at 60degC, but they cost much £££.

Cold is fine to top up with. Warm will give you a thicker foam though. I rarely use warm water in mine as I can't be bothered to go inside to top it up with warm water when I already have a cold water tap outside at my disposal.
