1Z Glanz is a Sealant...

If you're referring to the 1Z Wash, that'd be "Perls"

Personally, I've found DP Xtreme to work very well in a foam cannon in conjunction with a pressure washer. It leaves a one inch layer of thick slippery foam that rinses off extremely easily and is gently on the finish.

I know exactly what he is asking. But I wanted to let him know that there is an actual product called snow foam.

Im not sure why you are getting confused? Just because a soap produces a lot of suds does not mean its a quality soap. Slickness and cleaning/ rinsing ability are more important than suds. 1z Perls, Megs NXT, Megs Gold Class, PB SS&W, Prima Mystique, Lusso Auto Bathe- all do not produce a ton of suds (like in your video), but are high quality soaps.

On the other hand, there are a bunch of soaps that do produce suds like your video- CG makes a bunch that will do that, DP Xtreme, Megs has a few that will do that, the list goes on.

The reason I recommended 1z Perls is because it provides good slickness, rinses easily, and leaves a little something behind. Its not a STRONG soap by any means, which makes it perfect for a maintenance soap. Its not going to produce suds like your video, but thats last on the list of important things to consider in a soap.

Does that make sense?


When it comes to choosing a soap foam is really not an important factor. Slickness, cleaning ability, and free rinsing are more important characteristics. Foam sure is fun though!
