I've just ordered that Ava cannon and the BH Touchless! Can't wait to try them out 😊
Thanks for watching! You can't go wrong with them, you will enjoy them 🙌💪
Great review. I need to try the Bilt Hamber stuff. Have heard many good reviews on it.
Thanks for watching mate! Oh yes definitely get your hands on some, great for the winter months 👍
@@the_jnlt_channel For sure! Just have to get it soon since it's almost November and we usually have snow on the ground by then!
@@ScrappersDetailing your weather is much more extreme than ours haha! It was 15c and sunny today here, nice weather to work in 😂
Excellent video mate 💪🏻
Thanks for watching mate 🙏
Gotta say, love the picture-in-picture. Nice work!
I'm going to get Touchless and then compare it AF. Much reading and I'm still none the wiser as to which performs better wrt winter or summer dirt/grime. Maybe you know?
Cheers
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked it. So for me, the Touchless one is better for winter months at 5% PIR. I normally use a PH neutral foam in the summer months. I think personally that Touchless is slightly better than AF. Be interested to see your thoughts when you do try out Touchless 👍
If you can get your hands on kenotek cargo 4100 this will be left on the shelf like mine 😊
I have never tried this snow foam before, is it good? Never heard of it if I'm honest either 👍
I use BH auto foam. Touchless might be very marginally better at dissolving some contaminants and dirt, but it is not really noticeable, and you pay more for touchless.
Auto foam has been doing the business for me, for many years.
I tried touchless but I didn't notice any extra cleaning ability compared to auto foam, and in fact, I prefer the actual consistency of the foam with BH auto foam.
I also use Korrosol, auto wheel, and am about to try out the new traceless.
One think I noticed, you rinse off the foam from the bottom up.
I asked a few other detailers and only a few do this, and none of them could give me a reason which made any sense.
I emailed a couple of snow foam companies, and both of them said snow foams are designed to work with gravity, and should be rinsed from the top down, which is what I had always done anyway.
I have been detailing for years, and worked as a valeter at a main dealership too.
Rinsing from the bottom up, just moves crap from the dirtiest part of the car ie the bottom, up onto the cleaner part ie the top.
Thanks for your comment, it's a really good one! I think it's down to personal preference on the snow foams. Both are great and you can't go wrong with either, I just prefer touchless slightly more than Autofoam and over tests it just has worked slightly better for me. So to answer your question regarding bottom to top, there are a few reasons why I do it myself and sorry others couldn't answer why they do it for you. One of the main reasons I do it, is I can see where I have been and that I don't miss any areas of my rinse down as it will show exactly the parts I have prewashed. This is just to minimise leaving any dirt behind. if you pre wash from the top, you could easily miss parts of the prewash as it is washed away at the bottom part of the car (this reason is more of a personal preference one) 2nd reason is rinsing a car from the bottom to the top helps to ensure that any dirt and debris are washed away in a systematic manner. Starting at the bottom prevents dirt from the lower parts of the car from being splashed onto areas that have already been cleaned, the bottom part is the dirtiest and you could spray dirt onto the already pre washed surface. 3rd reason is that I actually did research with the autoglym team and they told me this is the way you should rinse the vehicle after using their snow foams. If you also read the back of the polar blast bottle or online how to use it, it tells you to rinse from bottom to top. Hopefully that helps with some of the reasoning of why I do it. But with detailing, there isn't really a right or wrong way. Do what works for you, it mainly comes down to personal preference 👍
@@the_jnlt_channel Thanks for the detailed reply, appreciate it.
I didn't contact autoglym, nor have I used their foam hence never read that.
I still don't quite 'get' how rinsing up can prevent dirt from the lower part being splashed on to the clean parts higher up, as it seems basic physics that rinsing upwards is doing exactly that ie moving dirt from the bottom, upwards.
If I pre wash, lets say with a citrus degreasing cleaner first, I rinse that off before I apply foam. The reason for this, and not 'layering' products as some detailers do, is that I researched a lot into the chemical 'ingredients' of a few products, and unless you know exactly what is in them, and understand the reactions which occur when 'mixing' two products, you can actually very easily cancel out the cleaning properties of both. Lets say you use an acidic TFR or citrus degreaser, then layer a foam on top, many foams are quite alkaline in their ph values, and as such, the two cancel out a lot of the effectiveness of both, becoming more watery with a ph of 7.
But hey, I am certainly not trying to say I am right, or come across as a know-it-all, far from it my friend, I'm just extremely interested and always wanting to understand these products and how they work alone and together with other products.
Peace out mate and have a good Christmas.
No worries at all. I understand what you're saying but it's just my preferred way and that was just some of the reasons. Yeah I totally get that with Products, you don't need loads of different ones as it will affect the products from working how that should. The only time I would top a product with snow foam, is to prevent it drying out in the summer. So like a TFR topped with a ph neutral snow foam. Tbh I'm not a professional, I do it as a hobby but have done a lot of research into what I do before starting UA-cam, learnt alot over many year but still am learning every day. I appreciate your comment and I like to hear peoples opinions of detailing, it's a great thing. I'll try tag you this video below, it has Alan from AM details in it and he talks about why you should rinse of bottom to top about 4min into the video he will talk about it ua-cam.com/video/NfUU4HZJL7Y/v-deo.htmlsi=-7doN3jpfWIx5swz
Let me know what you think.
Merry Christmas as well 🎅🎄
@@the_jnlt_channel Thanks matey, I'll give it a watch.
My favourite no bs detailing channel is Jon's (Forensic Detailing Channel), you have probably seen it.
He works as a detailer, and in his spare time he tests products in really effective ways, and experiments with all the different techniques to find the truth about them.
No worries! Yes I watch him as well, there are a few good channels out there. Thanks for the comment and hope you had a good Christmas 🎄👍
Love this product!!
They have made a new updated touchless recently in 2024 which is twice the strength so less product needed in your snowfoam lance, its only availble in 1L bottle at the moment but will soon be available for 5L
To know if your getting the new double strength one you need to see the instructions as the bottles look identical , the new one maximum dilution is 2% not 5% like the old one.
Im guessing the old version will soon stop production when they have sold out since they havent renamed it.
Yeah its a great product! Oh ok, I didn't know that but good to know. Wow if it is stronger, it's going to be really good and last even longer. I will keep an eye out for the new style via the instructions, thanks for that information 🙏
Good info mate. Just ordered 5l and looks like it`s the double strength. £35 delivered.
Your welcome 🙏🏾
Touchless is definitely the best by far. Try the new glass cleaner they released recently Traceless it blows all others out of the water. Possible video idea right there
Thanks for watching! Yes definitely a great snow foam. Yes I did see they released a new glass cleaner, will get it at some point but got so many glass cleaners 😂 thanks 👍
Nice video. Could i ask what 4% looks like in chemical usage with your set up, just to get an idea. I do realise my set up will be different. I ask because I use Autofoam and it's not far off 1 part chem to 1.5 parts water. BTW, I'm looking at changing from AF this winter and Touchless or Squid Ink Alkafroth are my current choices.
Thanks for watching! So for me 4% is around 230ml of product to 270ml water which gave me 500ml to use on the car. I think both autofoam and Touchless will have the same ratios. I hear good things about the Alkafroth and would also be interested to try it one day 👍
I have this stuff, Ive tried using it neat, and at the correct PIR, but I find it doesn't really work as well as other I have used. There is always a muddy film left behind that only a contact wash will remove
EDIT, Just checked, I have the Bilthamber autofoam, not the touch-less 😂😂
Going to order some of this instead of what I have already!
Thanks for watching! Ok so you found AF not that great then, I thought it wasn't too bad but Touchless is better for me personally. What other snow foams do you prefer over AF, always good to know so I can compare myself. Currently touchless is the best for me but always open to trying new products out 👍
@@the_jnlt_channel I’m yet to try the touchless, but it looks to work a lot better than the autofoam. Seems to stay on the car longer, and comes out thicker.
My personal favourite to date is Autoglym polar blast, followed by finished up with the polar seal (“ceramic” spray) 😂
@@marshmellow377 yes definitely think it's better for sure! Ah yes i do like polar blast as well, it's my go too PH neutral summer foam. The whole polar range is top draw 💪
Just to be clear. Is that the BH product you`re using on the wheels too?
Thanks for watching! Yes thats correct, in the IK foam sprayer is also the BH snow foam 👍
Ive watched countless videos on calculating PIR and ro all intents and purooses its roughly 100ml diluted to 1 litre .... The difference in actual PIR is small enough to really make no difference
Thanks for watching! PIR is key for Bilt Hamber products and for them to work efficiently. The normal pH neutral snow foam will be the normally 100ml to 1000ml but won't remove much traffic film. With the BH products via my set up I'm using about 300ml product to 200 ml water which does a full car, this is around the 4% mark and as you can did it's a lot more product then water to be effective at cleaning the car and removing nearly 100% of the dirt 👍
Which pressure washer are u using buddy? The p40 or p55?
This is the P70 version. I actually have a final verdict review video coming Sunday for it as well 👍
@@the_jnlt_channel I noticed that after seeing more of your videos. Have u tried any of the Go series?
@@Danksy33 not yet I haven't, hopefully might be able to get my hands on one to review in the future 👍
I’m not a fan of any of the BH SFs. I’d have hoped for more to be removed.
This is the same results I got.
Hope your well mate
Thanks for watching, all good here mate, hope all is well too 👍 oh ok, I really like their snow foams. What product do you recommend, I'm always interested in giving other products a go to compare.
@@the_jnlt_channelones I’ve been testing and really enjoy with added bite and Dwell are
SquidInk Alkafroth
Gliptone Vanish both very powerful.
@@Geeky_detail_reviews good to know. Have heard good things about Alkafroth and one on my list to look at 👍
@@the_jnlt_channel it’s very good honestly. We rate it highly on TCB. Gliptone not very well known in the uK but awesome
I don’t use anything else personally
Thanks for watching! Great product isn't it 💪
Why do people not test these things with an actual dirty vehicle instead of a slightly dusty one!
This car was dirty 🤦🏻 hadn't been washed for a few months so it's not just dusty 🤷🏻♂️ thanks for watching though 👍
