How do I clean the lance after use?

What is the advantage of using snow foam?
Snow foam is used as a pre-wash to break down and lift dirt, grime, and road film from your vehicle's surface before contact washing. This helps to minimize the risk of scratching the paintwork.
Can I use hot water with the lance?
You can use warm water up to a maximum temperature of 60°C. Using water above this temperature may damage the lance.
Troubleshooting
Lance is not producing thick foam.
Ensure you are using the correct ratio of snow foam to water. Check that the lance is securely attached and that the pressure washer is operating at adequate pressure. Try a different snow foam if available.
Foam is weak or watery.
Verify the proportion of snow foam concentrate to water. Too much water will dilute the foam. Ensure the nozzle is clean and not obstructed.
Lance leaks from the connection point.
Check that the lance is fully engaged with the Karcher K Gun. Inspect the O-ring or seal for damage and replace if necessary.
Colored foam does not appear vibrant.
While the lance supports colored foams, the vibrancy can depend on the specific foam formulation used. Ensure the foam is within its expiry date.
