    Bought a Nilfisk power washer recently for work around the house but looking to get some kit for washing car. Our washer comes with snowfoam lance so looking to see whats best washer and wax/polisher to get. Have seen Autoglym highly recommended but have seen polar blast/polar wash/polar seal available and unsure whether theres any point in me getting all 3. What would you recommend i buy. Both our cars are black cars so dont know if theres a polish specifically that suits dark colours.

    Not sure how good the Nilfisk own snow foam gun is to be honest but normally its recommended that look into proper foam gun for best results.

    Polar blast = Snow foam
    Polar wash = seems to be a another pre wash foam according to them, possibly an APC based version/shampoo
    Polar seal = is the post wash sealant to help protect paint.

    I going to guess there possibly designed to be used together as washing regime. Meaning Blast, rinse, Wash, rinse, dry, Seal take picture and show off on boards.ie :D:D

    Personally I say use Bilthamber products all excellent at what they do, when used right, bilthamber has product sheets on useage for best results on there site.

    At end of day though your wallet and time dictates what you prepared to buy/use.

    Watch some early youtube videos by AmmoNYC for good how to's and routines and Forensicdetail for some good product reviews.
