Dodo Juice

Post by CountryPug »

As our hose pipe has at last thawed out, I thought it about time that I wash the car. Currently driving the 106 until I get the annoying rattle in the 406 sorted out. I invested in a bottle of 'Dodo Juice, sour green' stuff the other day. I have to say that I'm really impressed by it. It left the 106 really clean and shiny. It is dearer than most other products on the shelf but boy does it work. Foams a decent amount, takes the dirt off easily, smells nice, leaves a nice glossy finish and only requires a small amount in a bucket. I should get a lot of washes out of it :D

Thats my experience with it. If you need to buy some decent car shampoo I'd recommend it 8)

I'm using Zymol at the moment with natural ingredients. I don't use the wash/wax stuff as it just leaves a temporary layer on yer paint.

Megs is my preferred polish and wax treatment but have heard good stuff about Poor Boys and Dodo's products.

these detailers do sound very confusing, and it seems like a very expensive pastime. Sometimes i splash my car with water, use a spongue to remove the dirt, and then use the hose to remove it all off, Simples, and it leaves them nice swirl marks that the detailers all adore.

Eww, swirl marks are bad news.

T'is why I use Snow Foam as a pre-wash, then Jet Wash this off, then use the Zymol in my Bucket with grit-guard technology, a 100% Australian Merino Wool wash-mitt, and an MF (that's Micro-Fibre) waffle-weave drying towel :mrgreen:

There's no swirls on Welly's motAh. Actually it's time for another Claying session soon 8)
