The Best Foam Cannon Technique for Black Cars
Black paint looks incredible when clean—but it’s also the easiest to scratch. Here’s the safest foam cannon technique for black cars.
If you own a black car, you already know how unforgiving the finish can be. Every swirl, scratch, and water spot stands out. That’s why using the right foam cannon technique is so important. With the right approach, you can keep your black paint looking flawless and glossy without introducing damage.
Why Black Cars Need Extra Care
- ✅ Black paint shows swirls and scratches more than any other color.
- ✅ Heat from the sun can cause water spots quickly.
- ✅ Even minor washing mistakes are highly visible.
Step-by-Step Foam Cannon Technique for Black Cars
- Pre-rinse thoroughly: Remove loose dirt and dust with plain water first.
- Pre-soak with foam: Apply a layer of The Super Soaper from top to bottom. Let dwell 5 minutes but do not let dry.
- Two-step foam + contact: After rinsing, re-foam and wash with a soft microfiber towel.
- Rinse with filtered or deionized water: This reduces spotting on black paint.
- Dry carefully: Use a blower if possible, then finish with a Massive Drying Towel.
