My neighbour is a valeter and he uses Autosmart products. It gives a brilliant foam which does cling for ages but when you check the tech sheet this product undiluted is pH13 which is the same as bleach and oven cleaner !!!!!. All of these snow foam products are traffic film removers (TFR's) and have to be aggressive to give the results they do. Just remember they are also stripping off polish and if left on too long - the paint (particularly white which doesnt have the same laquer protection). Buyer beware.
Not sure where your info is from that all snow foams are TFRs but many snow foams are criticised for not shifting dirt. So while I agree that their effectiveness varies I think you're at risk of overgeneralising.

I've gone for the free Magifoam with the lance deal, and have some Hyperwash coming too.

Let me know what you think of the hyperwash as I'm about to order some Chemical Guys No Touch foam to compare with the Magifoam.

Looks fun
Does the foam clear up easily after or not?

It is great fun - what you can't see in the photo is my two boys having a brilliant time covering the car in foam.
It stays on the ground for a few hours so I've been washing it a way so it doesn't make the ground slippery.
