Product Information
Full details
The Cleenly Snow Foam in Bubblegum scent is designed for car enthusiasts seeking an effective pre-wash treatment to achieve a scratch-free clean. This high-performance shampoo produces an ultra-thick, clinging foam that lifts dirt and grime, simplifying the washing process. Its non-caustic, bubblegum-scented formula is safe for your vehicle's surfaces. The primary caveat is that it is a pre-wash, meaning it's part of a multi-step cleaning process and not a standalone wash solution for all dirt levels.

FAQs
Is Cleenly Snow Foam safe for all car finishes?
Yes, the non-caustic formula is designed to be safe for all automotive paintwork, including clear coats, as well as plastic and rubber trim.
Do I need a pressure washer to use this?
While a pressure washer with a foam lance provides the best foaming action, you can also achieve good results with a manual pump sprayer.
How long should I let the foam dwell on the car?
Allow the foam to dwell for 5-10 minutes, depending on conditions. Avoid letting it dry completely on the surface, especially in direct sunlight or hot weather.
Can this be used as my only car wash soap?
Cleenly Snow Foam is primarily designed as a pre-wash treatment to lift dirt before contact washing. For a complete clean, a separate contact wash with a dedicated car shampoo is recommended.
What is the dilution ratio for Cleenly Snow Foam?
The exact dilution ratio can vary depending on your application method (foam lance vs. pump sprayer) and desired foam thickness. Refer to the product label or manufacturer's guidelines for specific recommendations.
How do I clean my foam lance after using the snow foam?
After each use, rinse your foam lance thoroughly with clean water. You can also run clean water through it for a short period to clear any residual product from the internal mechanism.
What is the scent of this snow foam?
This particular variant has a bubblegum scent.
Troubleshooting
Foam is not thick or clings poorly.
Ensure the correct dilution ratio is being used. Too much water will reduce foam density. Also, check that your foam lance or pump sprayer is functioning correctly and that the water temperature is adequate (warm water often yields better foam).
Product leaves residue after rinsing.
This can sometimes occur if the product is left to dry on the surface or if the rinsing process is insufficient. Ensure the vehicle is thoroughly rinsed with clean water. Do not allow the foam to dry completely on the car, especially in warm conditions.
Unpleasant chemical smell instead of bubblegum.
This is uncommon, but if the scent seems off, the product may have been stored improperly or exposed to extreme temperatures. Ensure the bottle is sealed and stored correctly. If the issue persists, contact the retailer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use Cleenly Snow Foam effectively, you will typically need a foam lance or a pump sprayer. Dilute the snow foam concentrate with water according to the manufacturer's recommended ratio (often found on the bottle or product information). For a foam lance, this usually involves adding the concentrate to the lance bottle and then filling with warm water. For a pump sprayer, dilute the concentrate in the sprayer reservoir.
Compatibility: This snow foam is compatible with all types of vehicle paintwork, including clear coats, and is safe for use on plastic trim, rubber seals, and glass. It is suitable for use with all pressure washers when paired with a compatible foam lance.
Care: Store the 5L bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to preserve the product's integrity and scent. Clean your foam lance or pump sprayer after use to prevent blockages and ensure optimal performance for future applications.
