    Agree with the AutoWash also.

    Some warnings.

    If you don’t have a Pressure washer go with Touchless .

    Both are high alkaline and can affect waxes and sealants.

    I don’t worry about that just re apply something after.

    I'm curious... wouldn't a high alkaline pre-wash damage plastic or rubber surfaces?

    Yea… we’re kinda behind the times for pre wash here in the States.

    Would love to be able to get some High Definition Details Road Rage.

    I would love to see someone test reset Vs autofoam with both at the 4% PIR. That said reset would be super expensive used that way.

    Honestly, i'm surprised that people that really enjoy foaming don't throw in an oz of APC in their cannon. I would on a very dirty car.

    Personally i just throw something like multix or lift in a pumper sprayer.

    I did recently pick up a foaming spray nozzle made by Tolco. I will be using it with carpro's lift or a similar product from europe cut 10:1. Give the hands a workout haha
    The PH would still be lower thus less cleaning with Reset at 1:1. SuperCharged Llama over on DW did a comparison. I don’t know if the reset was at 4% PIR but it got it’s assed kicked.

    I’m sure it would kick Lifts arse in a H2H too

    I use 4oz of BHAF to 100oz water to get these results in an IK foam 12.

    Lift is way overpriced IMO. I'll never buy it again. I have a similar product now that is double the value - primus from europe.

    I'm a carpro fan but they have some expensive products but ironically some of the cheapest coatings around.
    Just ordered Descale before I found out I could get Purifica in the states. Been wanting to try that.

    Also I’ve had my IK12 for couple years now. Only foamer I’d really recommend.

    Yeah presoak with AutoFoam and then pressure washed off would work.

    Shine Supply makes a product very similar to this called HoleShot. Low alkaline made for cleaning off road vehicles.

    Recommended for coating maintenance and traffic film also.

    I ask and the said it would not affect there silica sealant (Clutch).

    If it cleans as well as AF that would give it a leg up as AF definitely affects Sio2 Sealants.

    Yes if you let it dry. I avoid spraying directly on and don’t let it dry. No issues and I’ve been using it since December 2019.

    I'd love to see a pre-wash foam cleaning test between:

    OPC
    BH Touchless
    Shine Supply Holeshot

    It would be interesting for sure, not sure what ratio is recommended for Alien Kleen for a pre-wash and never heard of the 3rd product. I do know Alien What are your opinions regarding Bilt Hamber Auto-Foam? Kleen is pretty close in price to Bilt-Hamber but still currently less expensive. I do know Bilt-Hamber Touchless and Auto-foam are made for your paint and a WELL PROVEN product, again, don't know about that last productWhat are your opinions regarding Bilt Hamber Auto-Foam?
