I've got 5 litres of both the Magifoam and the Superfoam.

The Superfoam smells better (A bit like cherry medicine) and produces a less thick foam which runs off the car quicker. I prefer this when the car's not too dirty as the dwell time is less but takes a fair bit of crud with it.

The Magifoam (Which I'm using in the video I posted) produces a thicker foam which dwells better and loosens and takes more bonded dirt with it.

For weekly use I'd use the Magifoam and maybe try a smaller bottle of Superfoam to see how you like it.

Great looking GB my old foaming lance is playing up here so I think it's time to replace it with one of these. You will laugh now but I wash the conservatory plus car port roof down with mine along with a de greaser I always use and every spring I do the windows on the house as well as you can get all the frames really clean, there is so much more to use a foaming lance on than just the car.

Sounds a bit like me with waxes an sealants.

Our en-suite shower screen must be the best prepared out there. Always trying different things on that and the tiles

Not sure mate. Might be worth looking on Youtube ? Ian's pictures on the yellow Clio show what it does pretty well

Have to agree this stuff is awesome..... washed mine and the wife's car's with it to day, and what a job it does



















Left on for 10min or so then a quick jet wash off ,The Golf had no other washing,just dryed it off but I did wash my car then dryed her off and I think the results speak for them self



















Even good for washing the drive......Lol



This Magifome really dose what it says on the tin......
