Default Snow Foam Lance

Hi All,

I am thinking of getting a snow foam lance.
But the jetwash I have is a stores own brand.
If I post up a pic of the connection of the current lance, is it easy to identify the one required on a snow foam lance or will only the right one for the right jet wash fit?

Have a look at polished bliss website for snow foam lances it shows the various connectors avaliable. I cannot see a own brand having it's own special connector purely down to cost.

Personally I cannot see there being to many connectors in use. Could you take a piece from your jet wash to someone who sells the make that you think matches yours and see if it fits. For example B&Q who sell Karcher washes.

If you mean the Gilmour Foamaster then yes,you attach it to an ordinary hose.I got mine when they had the offer on a Gilmour and Meguiars Hyper Wash for around £35 last year as this was very cheap IMO.
Cling in some cases(low water pressure) may not be as good as a PA lance but just add more Hyper Wash to your bottle for a thicker foam.

There is a high chance one of our connectors will fit. Can you post up a decent image of your current connection so that we can check please? In two years of selling them we've only been beaten three times out of many, many hundreds of foam lance sales.
