Default Car cleaning sprays

Can anyone recommend a spray that all these detailing/supermarket chaps spray on before they use the pressure jet. Does it still work if a pressure jet is not available?

I'm assuming you mean snow foam?

Plenty out there, some that work with attachment to normal hosepipe

I have an attachment for the Karcher, works really well as a first wash, jet wash off then wash normally.

Not this one, but very similar.

No, this stuff just looks like water and the car only look damp after it is applied

I use a snow foam lance from Monza car care plus Valet-Pro PH neutral foam as a pre-wash. Seems to work quite well, I don't know if its any better or worse than the Citrus Pre Wash Neil mentioned - but it's good fun!

They have one called a Gilmour lance if you have no jet wash, looks a bit pricey though.
