Bowden's Own Snow Job

Good foam that dwells – My favourite snow foam is a UK brand but it is not available here in WA. I have tried other brands of snow foam and the foam doesn’t dwell for long. An indication of a good snow foam is if it lingers on your driveway or whatever surface that you are cleaning your car on. I purchased the Snow Job (love the name) and just used it for the first time.… Read more

I am impressed with the thick foam that this product produces with my foam lance. It dwells for enough time to loosen dirt and carry it off the paint.

It may be expensive but so is the UK brand favourite.

Cheap snow foams are quite useless and drain off the car too quickly.

I recommend trying this snow foam but use a good lance.

There is a new formula called V2 (version 2). My rating is on V2 which is more expensive than the original formula.

Waaayyyy overpriced for what it is – This stuff is insanely expensive. $60 for 2L, are you kidding me? Especially when you know how much it really costs when Repco / Supercheap / Autobarn have a clearance on the "old" (only old picture, still the improved formula) for $20 for 2L and are still making money. So $60 for 2L for the privledge of a new picture huh? No thanks. I'll go back… Read more

to Meguiars on special regulary on special for $23.

It really shows how much mark up there is on this esentially just detergent product.

A great foaming pre wash – I bought this snow foam sometime ago and the Bowden's applicator bottle. The snow foam foamed up good and thick by adjusting the control knob on the foam bottle. I did however find that pouring the foam into the bottle a little messy as the foam bottle has a wide opening after you've removed the cap and the snow foam bottle has a very narrow… Read more

opening. So instead of filling the snow foam bottle with water and then adding 100mls of snow foam, I just fill the snow foam bottle with neat snow foam and it lasts for many car washes instead of one car wash when diluted. The foam really does cling to the car well and loosens the dirt and crime on the car. The dirty foam and excess grime can then be removed with a high pressure water blaster.

Great Aussie product – I bought this to use with my foam gun, because I didn’t want the hassle of having to hook up a pressure washer every time I wash my car, and a foam gun just hooks up to your garden hose click connections, or in my case my hoselink setup with click adaptor. It foams up big time! I usually only put a small amount in the pot and add water, but… Read more

there’s so much foamy suds, that if I don’t remember to concentrate on hosing out the bootlid panel gaps with water there’s a heap of suds still when it comes to drying the door jambs and boot opening - it’s like a bubble bath!

Thick Foam, Doesn't Run and Really Lifts The Dirt – There are a few competitors to this product, but I love how thick the foam goes on and just how long it lasts - it won't just run off like the others. It really does loosen up the dirt (and bugs / droppings / sap) to make it much easier to remove with a pressure washer. I'm going to get roasted for this, but you can even use this product in the… Read more

place of the traditional sponge and bucket method if you want to do a quick wash - you shouldn't, but you can.

I do have one criticism of this product though, the container. The 'Snow Job' liquid is very viscous and it is hard to decant it out of this container which has a particularly large opening into the Bowden's Own Snow Blower, which has a particularly small opening. It makes quite a mess and wastes a fair bit of the product.

Definitely a great product to use as the first step of a full wash / bar / polish / wax job, or even just on its' own for a quick wash.
