Thanks for this review. Im from the UK and have been a BH fan for several years. I like auto foam for its higher ph and use it at a ratio of 1:1 in the winter. In the summer I reduce the concentration to 3:1. Ive not tried touchess yet but will give it a try next.
Thanks for this review and comparison with Touchless. I’ve been debating which one to get but now I’m going for Touchless. I appreciate your train of thought. Your videos make sense!
I have both Autofoam and Touchless, but prefer the Touchless even though it is marginally more expensive. I have never had a car yet that required the 4% PIR, so generally use it at 2% which still gives a remarkable clean. I can generally do a complete clean using only Bilt Hamber products, although I do have a lot of Turtle Wax and Autoglym products, so I have a choice.
Touchless is phenomenal. It’s all we use. AF is on the shelf for backup in case inventory on Touchless is low. If I couldn’t have these 2 I wouldn’t waste my time with anything else. After I rinse Touchless off I go straight to a rinseless contact wash. Very effective and economical. My average wash takes me 13-15 minutes depending on vehicle size.
Auto Foam is a good product theres no denying it, as are all the Bilt Hamber products, however theres akso no denying that on a really dirty car it does take a lot of product to clean properly.... I'm only a weekend warrior and I was finding my self using essily 400-500 ml made up to a litte to clean my cars ..... I now some folk suggest using either Surefex (or a Citrus Prewash) underneath it or even mixing it in with it but its not something I've personally tried .... I've only just picked up some Touchless and I've still to try it and as its a 2% mix max im hoping itll be a bit cheaper especially ss the current car is ceramic coated ..... I know for you guys across in the USA and Canada its even more expensive, I'm in the UK so its not to bad, but ive often wondered if for the real professionals out there the company should maybe supply it in a 10 litre or bigger container to bring the overal cost down just like buying 5 litres is maybe the same price as buying 2 * 1 litre bottlles... I know the biggest issue is storage and especially if going bigger than say 10 litres but surely its a thought.....
You mix doesn't look anything like 50/50 when you decant it , and it does look a little weak on the vehicle as a consequence - BH products certainly aren't showy ones though, as you highlighted its not about the foam, but about the cleaning power of the liquid.
your wrong both auto foam and touchless are enviromental safe because i have use them for years and the reason is because i have to pay like hell id i used a non bio friendly snowfoam. and uk regs miles more stricter than us

I do like using Bilt Hamber products. They make really nice products to use
Love the thorough review!

My favorite detailer!
I have the auto foam and it's good, that my go to for the winter grime and road detritus. I've yet to try the touchless.

I use this in a one gallon pump sprayer with once of auto foam

Touchelss is yellow (like some body fluids) and auto-foam stinks like really strong chemical substance (nothing like raspberry lol)
