I know in the past I have read a few positive reviews about Chemical guys Honeydew Melon foam soap, BUT does anyone have up to date personal experience? Thanks!

just use maxisuds. Will get you the same or similar performance for a fraction of the cost.

Yep use maxisuds. Just makem sure you use a quality foam gun. The chemical guys foam gun sucks. I bought a Gilmore industrial gun off amazon and it foams sooooo much better than the CG piece of crap.

Honeydew is a great soap although it does not have the suds I prefer, but does cling very well. What I have found is if you mix honeydew with maxisuds II it foams great and clings very well.

CG UK has a snow foam that is amazing but you have to import it. This stuff foams great and has around a 4 minute cling time in the sun without drying.

With that said, for the money honeydew is good.

Man, I've been wanting to try that cherry valet stuff from UK for a while. Have you ever heard of it?

Which one did you have? Gilmore makes many of the guns out that that other companies put their names on. CG has two foam guns for water hoses and one of them is a Gilmore.

I hasn't tried UK Valet's cherry snow foam. However if you really want to try one of the best snow foam then you have to give Valet Pro pH neutral a try. This stuff sticks on like paint, also works good on a pump sprayer too.
