Happy belated birthday tim!

Looks a fair bit of kit that :) Any links to it, iv always been intending on getting myself one! Makes the wash process slightly less un-nerving so your not dragging dirt along your bodywork! :D

I've got a Powertec PS2000 mate, unknown PW, but does the job fine. It uses an Kew/altor connector.

Yes it's really good, there's probably better stuff out there, but I haven't had any experience with any other type so can't compare :D

Aye mate, it;s relaly fun.

Here's mine after a few mintues to soak.

It's quite hard to picture because you've got to soak it, put it down, turn off the PW, turn off the hose, run inside, setup the camera and get a good pic!

By the time all that's done, it's dripping away.

Just used mine today for the first time. Wow cant believe how thick the foam is. Filled the bottle with about 1cm of maxi suds 2 and 1cm of snow foam then filled it to the top with warm water. I covered the car 3 times and only used a 3rd of the bottle. And the g/f likes it because the maxi suds smells of marzipan.
