New Car wax, "Dodo juice".

[monkip1]

Hi all.

Just seen the News on pistonheads, and found this....

http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=16336

Its a new car wax which is just as good if not better (Apparently) as the stuff top detailers us to wax there cars with. One part that did caught my eye was "The company claims that all Dodo Juices waxes are easy to apply and remove, leave a deep, durable shine (even on silver) and exhibit tight beading when wet."

Might interest Craigy or Frenchy with there Silver motor, as i know its hard to tell if silvers clean or not [].

What do you all think? It does look promising at £30quid, wear as Zymols top wax for our cars "Japwax" is around £130quid a pot!

Monki.

LOL Parker your ledge.

The Meguars Tech wax i used Sunday is really good. But i dont think its got this "Coconut furr" and "Ear wax" you get in these expensive ones []

[kevlorn]

the good stuff is bloody expensive,ain't got the money to do it all,but i do use meguirs and seem to get good result's, in my opinion anyway lol lol.

[scooby princess]

the poor boy wax is very well priced for the amount you get

[craigscoob]

meguires is a very good product and lots of members do use it - clay bar is amazing

[craigscoob]

hopefully get the claybar this weekend, got everything else inc the pads etc

[scooby princess]

the clay bar is hard work but the results are wonderful

[kevlorn]

the clay bar is amazing, as you said sp it is hard work/time consuming but the smoothness of the paintwork after is probably better than when it was new..

[scooby princess]

used it then waxed it with poorboys - what a result

[monkip1]

I might have to clay my car sometiem but its such hard work cleaning the car every two days because of road dust ect!.

Wish i had a garage.

[Louise_Rat]

we are taking the car down the road for the polish peeps to do , fiver for an hour washing it and they even get the wheels white lol then back home for the full meguairs treatment [Y]

[monkip1]

I usally jet wash the car chamose then Tech wax it!! Lovly jubbly.

[krisr1978]

i fancy trying this dodo juice stuff, its not just the shine but the smell after which is interesting

[monkip1]

Imagin your car smelling of flower,coconuts, or honey? Drive past people and you see there noses turning up to smell the sweet cent lol.

I got to admit my paints slik smooth after the usual wax, may i beable to grace oneones paintwork to compaire a claybarrd paint to my waxed paintwork?

I recently used brake cleaner on a clean cloth, metal polish, and alot of elbo grease!

AUTOGLYM instand tire dressing is awsome on pipework coolant hoses ect to make then shine!

[krisr1978]

thanks for the tips mate

will give it a try this weekend

[kevlorn]

autoglym tyre dressing is good stuff on all rubber/plastic stuff.used it myself.

[edmondo]

always use the Autoglym Show and shine spray afterwards to finish off the shine

[kevlorn]

is that on the bodywork ed or just the plastics/rubber
