So - I have never cleaned my own cars because mostly I haven't had that much affection for what I have. HOwever new car + Christmas = spending spree on the GFs credit card.
So, she's getting me a Karcher K2 with wheel brush attachment and 'shampoo sprayer'. She also wants to get me a 'starter kit' of some description to get me going budget only £50/60.
So - chaps question 1. Is there a difference between a 'snowfoam' nozzle and the Karcher shampoo spray or can they be used?
Iirc, the shampoo sprayer just sprays shampoo, you can't alter consistency like with a snow foam lance.
2. What products should I be looking at for a starter kit? Do I need washmit and 2 buckets etc if using the snowfoam nozzlee? Wax? Glass cleaner? Plastic trim stuff?
Snow foam,
Citrus pre wash,*
Wheel cleaner,
Shampoo,
Wash mitt and any two buckets
Tar remover,
Iron fallout remover,
Clay bar*,
Microfibre drying towel(s)
All in one polish (glaze, cleanser, Polish) like tripple or super resin polish*
Wax/sealant
Isopropyl alcohol,*
Trim dressing
* aren't really necessary
3. A good website to buy from? I've looked on Autofinesse but it seems very pricey although appreciate price probably indicated quality. TBH I wouldn't know good beading if I saw it so I imagine the more expensive stuff is wasted on me. Simplicity is key with this in ther ordering process.
