For my light coat of foam (which is plenty) I only added about 1-2cm in the bottle, and topped up with cold water to 3/4's full
Make sure your connections are all good but not OVER tight, quick adjustment to the end for spray, not too much water = FOAM

Just tried mine. Bottle isn't emptying at all, not a pick of foam. Also there are minor spray leaks around the metal connector and I don't want to tighten it further. Anyone else have this problem?

Did you try adjusting the knob on the top of the bottle with the 2 arrows symbolling open & close < >

Yes the metal threaded bar that adapts the different fittings leaks a bit - I'm just going to PTFE / plumbers tape the threads.

I hd put up another thread when ppl ordered the lance that all karcher adaptors need to put together with thread lock as ptfe tape will crack the adaptor.

Sorry, only seeing this now.

Tried using the cheapy karcher one - bottle emptied, no foam though. Tried the new lance again, still not emptying.

@BarryPort - yep, turned it all the way to the plus side, no difference.

I'll try again tomorrow if I can.

@adam1942 - yep, plenty of pressure. It's maybe the leaks pasted the silver part causing it to not mix properly. I found a mate has an identical one so I'll take it to him and see if he can advise me on what I'm doing wrong.

Was in ProCar today looking a foam lance, stock due back in end of the week or the start of next. Didn't sound like there is another group buy in the pipeline.
