Snow foam applicator
Can anyone recommend a pressure washer and snow foam applicator from personal experience? I am totally baffled by all that's available on the web!

From electrical 220v unheated models Kranzle Profi series is the only pressure washer worth attention. It is miles better than others. And I tried a lot.
Ask Autobrite for best foam applicator as well as best foam.

Thanks Sergey, but I was hoping to spend less than £150 - £200 including the lance (and a patio cleaner if possible)

Jim,
Proper 'made in germany' unheated 220v kit wil cost 1000 pounds. Something that will last and is pleasure to own and work with. You may need water tank too. This is what I have in my garage. If you think of heated 300bar petrol/diesel-powered model with steam, etc. be prepared to shell out 3000-4000 pounds. Open detailingworld forum and read reviews.

If I spent £1K on a pressure washer I'd be in the divorce court before I had chance to use it!

Check out threads HERE and HERE Jim
 On the patio cleaning part dont get one of those stupid circle shaped things that look like an upturned dog bowl, make sure you get the attachment that sprays the jet in a small circular motion as they are wayyy more effective, Karcher call it the "Dirtblaster" They look like this -
