Anyone use it? If so, what do you use it with? Pressure washer or garden hose type?

You need something like this with the correct connection to your pressure washer.  Link

Excellent stuff if you buy decent quality .. it "lasts" a long time, remaining "foamy" on the car and softening any dirt. I use an applicator attached to a pressure washer

washer is the Karcher K4, applicator is



EDIT

This is the stuff I use .. :)

Cheers lads! I'd seen the Car Plan stuff with the attached hose connection but then read that though the foam was good, the foamer on the bottle was crap.

I will peruse eBay for attachments for my Karcher  :y  :y

I use it on each of my cars about once a month, Karcher pressure washer and karcher foam lance with car plan foam which has good reviews - it is a bit of a faff to do it every time and works best if the car is filthy as you are supposed to leave it to run off and drag the dirt and grit with it (usually about 20 mins) then rinse and then you wash the car.

Next you will be using the 2 bucket method of car washing with grit guards and wash mits!!  :)
