We Say
Is Gyeon Q²M Foam the thickest, best performing, snow foam ever? Quite possibly yes! It's no secret that this product took Gyeon a long time to develop and perfect; despite pressure from the detailing community to release it as soon as possible, Gyeon held their nerve and continued to test and revise the formula until they could improve it no further. And, based on our experiences with it, this effort has paid off. Firstly, how well does it foam up? The answer is better than any other snow foam we've ever used (assuming that the correct dilution ratio/range is adhered to), and this does not appear to be affected by water hardness (which cannot be said for rival products, which tend to produce less foam in hard water areas). Gyeon Q²M Foam produces a ridiculous amount of thick clinging foam, which is great, because this maximises its dwelling time, even on slick well protected finishes. Secondly, how well does it clean? The answer is very well. We regularly rely on it to remove many weeks' worth of salty winter grime without any help from a pre-wash grime remover, and it does this with ease. Sure, the usual grimy film remains afterwards (that only a hand wash will ever fully remove), but the main bulk of the dirt and grime is always fully removed. As such, it's every bit as good as (if not better than) its rivals, but offers marginally better foaming performance in hard water areas. All in all, Gyeon Q²M Foam is another awesome product in the outstanding Gyeon line up.

Description
Gyeon Q²M Foam is a highly concentrated snow foam designed to gently dissolve and lift away a high proportion of dirt and grime in a completely touchless fashion. Although best suited to regular use and tackling relatively fresh contaminants, it is also powerful enough to tackle more persistent road films that have gone through multiple wetting and drying cycles and become more firmly bonded. The main ingredient in Gyeon Q²M Foam is a powerful blend of non-caustic surfactants that safely loosens the bond between dirt and underlying surfaces without stripping or otherwise degrading existing layers of protection. Fast-acting and safe for use on all exterior automotive surfaces, Gyeon Q²M Foam also rinses away easily and completely to leave such surfaces looking clean and streak-free. This is very beneficial on vehicles protected with silica-based coatings, as residues can otherwise diminish their inherent and hugely beneficial self-cleaning properties. When properly diluted, Gyeon Q²M Foam is completely safe for use on all exterior automotive surfaces, including sensitive materials such as polished aluminium. Because it is highly concentrated, Gyeon Q²M Foam offers a degree of latitude with respect to its effective dilution rate. During the summer months, as little as 50 ml is needed (in the bottle of a PA Foam Lance) to remove dust and pollen, whereas in the winter months up to 200 ml can be used (in the bottle of a PA Foam Lance) to tackle thick salty grime.

How To Use
Gyeon Q²M Foam is suitable for use in any foam gun or foam lance system, as long as a final dilution ratio of approximately 100:1 (water:product) can be achieved. With regard to the systems we offer, the following advice applies:
(i) for use with a PB Foam Gun, remove the foam gun body and pour or pump approximately 200 ml of Gyeon Q²M Foam into the bottle, then fill the bottle to the top with hot water, refit the foam gun body and shake the whole unit gently to mix the solution before finally attaching it to your hose - then squeeze the trigger and adjust the top dial on the foam gun body until you get the desired foam thickness;
(ii) for use with a PA Foam Lance, remove the foam lance body and pour or pump approximately 100 ml of Gyeon Q²M Foam into the bottle, then fill the bottle to the top with hot water, refit the foam lance body and shake the whole unit gently to mix the solution before finally attaching it to your pressure washer - then fire the washer up, and adjust the top dial on the foam lance body until you get the desired foam thickness. In both examples given above, you can safely double the amount of Gyeon Q²M Foam used when tackling particularly dirty cars, or else halve it if only a light clean is needed.
