Im looking out for a budget pressure washer as mine decided to blow up the other day I need to use a snow foam lance with it (not bought yet) so the cheapest possible please.

Also,does the snow foam work better applied with warm or cold water?

Sorry for the obvious questions but im a newbie to detailing

As for a 'budget' pressure washer, i had a karcher, but my dog chewed the hose, it cost as much for a replacement hose as it did for a cheapo washer, the cheapo washer is fine, not as powerful as the karcher, but you don't want a paintstrippingly powerful washer if it's for the car, it does the job, except the hose is terrible, it is very very stiff, and coils up...............With hindsight i should have bought the replacement karcher hose.

I just go up my brothers and use his karcher with a variable pressure lance when i wash the car now, so don't really use my cheapo one, apart from cleaning the patio.

don't know about hot snow foaming though. I wouldn't have thought it would make much difference to the suds, apart from maybe softening the wax on the car, and also maybe drying too quick.

the Nilfisk c110 are really rated over on detailingworld, you can buy them from Argos for about 50 quid & adapters can be had to use a snow foam lance with it
