Re: Different Color Foam question
Cant say I ever seen this, but I for one would like different colored foam soap! Nothing more than adding a dye to it. Car wash tunnels do this. But never seen it for personal car wash soap. It would only take a manufacture to come out with dye kit for home use I would think.

Re: Different Color Foam question
Besides there being differently colored
foams for automatic car washing operations...
There are several suppliers/vendors of
differently colored foams that are more
suited for "manually" washing a car.

Re: Different Color Foam question
why would anyone want a dyed up soap? I dont think its any good to use dye on your paint let alone windows and everything else.

Re: Different Color Foam question
There was a thread on this somewhere, sorry, can't recall, but they showed how "Cherry" colored foam discolored parts of the engine bay. It had dripped in and sat, then left discoloration that was difficult to correct, if they even could. It actually looks fun, and I predict would get positive attention if you're mobile, but that made me decide to stick with plain ol' white...

Re: Different Color Foam question
I used to use green foam in my car wash, for the "Polish wax".
I always wondered how it would work in this application. I imagine this is what it would look like!

I recant then. Guess it's not a good idea.

Yes, that's exactly it. Very well spoken, well produced video. Content really stuck with me. Must've been one of those wee hours of the morning YouTube extravaganzas. Thank you for finding the source, so that he can be properly credited.
Brings to mind the recent discussion on liability insurance... good to have and KNOW YOUR COVERAGE.
The video was from NOV2016, by My Supercar Life:

Can't catch his name - I have checked his website and FB quickly. Great information, though!
