So I have my Megs APC+ diluted 4:1. I use it to clean my tires and engine bay and it does not foam at ALL. I know its supposed to be lower foaming, but it does not foam even when agitated with a brush. I cant really tell where I have cleaned or how clean the tires are getting. How can I make it foam?
 
Get a foaming sprayer?

I also put a 1/4 oz of car soap into my 32oz 1:6 mix of APC+.

^^ I use the same mix for wheel wells and real dirty wheels.

Well the foaming sprayer came to mind, but I have seen plain old APC foam with agitation. Can I get a foaming sprayer at autozone or anywhere like that? The car soap is a good idea
 
If you shake your spray bottle does it foam up inside?
 
Mix it at a higher dilution. APC+ is made to also be used in a hot water carpet extractor. Now it seems backwards in your head, but with low foaming products, the more dilute they are, the more they foam. I have found the "64:1" carpet extractor ratio waaaaaay too high and it fills the receiver tank up with foam.

Ok so I should add more water to my spray bottle?
 
Megs APC+ is designed to be very low foaming. If you are really looking for lots of foam, get the regular(green) APC.

I use apc+ for interiors and regular green apc for exterior trim and tires. Works a lot better at cleaning tires IMO.
