Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Gerni 125.2 (the Bunnings exclusive model) for me. Works really well, very happy with it.
    Keep in mind that all models of Gerni have a metal pump where as all but the top models of Karcher have plastic.

      Thanks everyone,

      Looks like the Karcher or Gerni are popular and attach to the CCP snowfoam lance. Also appears as if people avoid the base models and opt for something with a bit more power and hose length...

                    Spot on Silver Dub, was in my garage at home. Painted slab with sand thrown in when paint was put down for 'grip' when wet....good for cars and pedestrians!

                    I get a hard time from my mates but who cares, love a good detail. On my old Pug GTi180, I took the rear windows out to clean/polish the area behind rubber seals/areas you could not get to when windows are in place.

                    Heck, a great mate in London with a vRS Octavia, rinses his washer nozzles in denture cleaner and, uses distilled water in the washer bottle. Legend!!!!

                    Car Care Products are awesome to deal with....have fun!

                      What do you guys think of this? Gerni Classic 130.2S - Supercheap Auto Australia

                      Thinking of getting it tomorrow, is it alright to use with the snow lance? and is it safe (not too much power to damage paint etc)

                        Should be fine. The main thing with using a pressure washer is don't get too close with the nozzle, minimum half a metre to be safe and be careful around stone chips.

                        I use the Bunnings exclusive Gerni 125.5, check that out if you want to save some $$$.

                        In regards to the Autobrite foam lance, you want the Nisfik fitting.

                          If you can afford the 140.2 model i would sugget you get it as it has the longer 9meter hose and a bit more power.

                          It also comes with a wall mount bracket which is very handy.

                          I have my gerni set up about 2 meters away from the car so if it was to fall over it wont hit the car and with the 9m hose i just make it around the whole car which is the perfect length in my opinion. The shorter hose would annoy me as you would have to move the gerni around the car as you work.

                            Very good point, it's annoying having to move the gerni around.

                              Bought the Gerni 130.2 Super from Supernotcheap auto and loving this bit of kit, will put in an order for a snowfoam lance and the washing solution in the coming days

                              put it up on the hoist and found a few bits of grass, mud, misc debris this beauty cleaned them right away made my wheel arches look brand spanking new!
