Thanx Rich,

I'm thrilled to use Supernatural 2.0 after my first experience with Dodo, i bought a Dodo Juice Lite and Dark sample kit, 200ml Lime Prime Lite (cleaner) and 30ml Blue Velvet (hard wax) en 30ml Purple Haze (softwax). After washing and cleaning i put the Blue Velvet (hard wax) on and after a few hours i topped my car with Purple Haze (soft wax) Those are my only experience with Dodo and i really like it, didn't seal the wax.... want to see how long it stays on..

I have every intention of doing mine when it arrives, i may even machine polish it too to really bring the paint up to how it *should* leave the factory.

I've heard good things abuot dodo juice and intend on using that over my normal meguires or autoglym roducts (both which work very well) however when i ask which wax to use im always told "its personal choice" - i've never used them before so how do i chose, surely a product is made for a specific purpose!!!

hi smo,
can really recommend the dodo supernatural,it is one of the easiest waxes to apply and gives a deep wet look on my black a4,have you used a machine polisher before?

rich

I've not used a machine polisher in years, if i was to use one id get a random orbital one as there is less risk involved with one of them!

I'll try the supernatural as my Q5 is going to be black when they make it!!!

smo,i bought the meguiars orbital polisher as my first polisher and my first go at detailing i wasnt over impressed (probably me).i find i can get a better finish by hand. also waiting for q5 in black pearl

Oh, the megs one was one of the RA's i was considering.

Perhaps i will stick to hand polishing but i did plan on using it on the other halfs car too - she doesnt get a new one but at least i can make hers shiney again!!

no probs

I didn't do any detailing in my car.I think its good as it is.If in future i do some modifications i'll tell you.

I am due to collect my car in 3 weeks .. was wandering is this detailing worth it for a new car and if it worth it. Is it done before the car is collected or after. Can i do it my self.

If my car looked that good ictbydesign, I'd never take it out on the road again. Smashing work.
