Van hasn't been washed for ages and in preparation for going away decide to give it a good wash.. but what about the dreaded black streaks.. I could see them at the corners of every window, everywhere rain water runs off .. oh how I hate them..
Recently I bought a foam lance and Cherry snow foam that had worked great on the car but didn't think the foam on it's own would do the trick on the van ... so decided to try the Cherry Snow foam in a bucket and use a car washing brush..
So, large bucket , a good splash of the cherry snow foam and another splash off regular car wash.. very scientific..
I started to wash with the brush, small section at a time.. at first I thought it wasn't taking the streaks off.. but after a few minutes of being wet they brushed of.. hardly any effort.. rinse off with fresh water .. my 'assistant' did the drying with a micro-fibre cloth and she was quiet amazed how clean the van came up.
Would the foam work on it's own without brushing.. probably.. maybe next time when it's not so dirty..
