Full details

The Triplewax Vortex Blast Snow Foam is designed for car enthusiasts seeking a superior pre-wash or shampoo solution. Its key benefit is creating a thick, candy floss fragranced foam that effectively loosens and lifts dirt without damaging existing wax or sealant layers.

FAQs

How much product should I use?

For a 1-litre snow foam lance, use 100ml of Triplewax Vortex Blast Snow Foam and fill the remainder with water.

Can I use this product without a snow foam lance?

While it is designed for use with a pressure washer and snow foam lance for optimal results, it can be used as a high-foaming shampoo by agitating it with a wash mitt after application.

Will this product remove all dirt in one go?

It is highly effective at loosening and lifting a significant amount of dirt and grime, especially as a pre-wash. For a complete clean, a subsequent contact wash with a shampoo like Triplewax Wash & Wax is recommended.

How long should I leave the foam on the car?

Allow the foam to dwell for approximately 5 minutes. It is crucial not to let the foam dry on the vehicle's surface.

Is this product safe for ceramic coatings?

The product is designed not to strip wax or sealant layers. While generally safe for most modern paint protection, it is always advisable to test in an inconspicuous area if you have concerns about specific coatings.

What is the benefit of using a snow foam pre-wash?

Using snow foam as a pre-wash helps to loosen and lift the larger, abrasive particles of dirt and grime from the surface. This significantly reduces the risk of inflicting swirl marks and scratches during the subsequent contact wash stage, allowing your main shampoo to work more effectively.

Can I use this in cold weather?

While it can be used in cooler weather, avoid letting the foam freeze. Ensure the vehicle is not in direct sunlight or on a hot surface to prevent premature drying, which is more likely in warmer conditions.

Troubleshooting

Foam is not thick or clinging well.

Ensure the bottle has been shaken well. Check that the correct dilution ratio (100ml per litre) is being used in the snow foam lance. Verify the pressure washer and lance are functioning correctly.

Foam is drying too quickly on the vehicle.

Work in smaller sections or in cooler conditions. Reduce the dwell time if necessary, but aim for the recommended 5 minutes. Ensure the vehicle is not in direct, hot sunlight during application.

Product seems to be stripping wax.

While designed to be wax-safe, extremely delicate or old waxes may be affected. Perform a spot test in an inconspicuous area if concerned. Ensure proper rinsing.

Snow foam lance is blocked.

Disassemble the lance according to its manufacturer's instructions and clean any blockages, particularly the mesh filter and nozzle.
