As a matter of fact, I want to true out some more products: Dodo Juice Purple Haze or the Blue Velvet and or the Blackfire range.
Its kinda addictive collating these cleaning products. I am a clean tidy type of person so has to have a clean car. My mum says 'the Queen could sit in my car'...ahh bless.

i find that pretty much the same as nattys for the hard. only can be applied by applicator. the soft waxes are soft enough to apply by hand. however i still prefer to apply by applicator. i apply all my soft waxes by applicator. have a choice of:
z***l creme,
z***l glasseur,
Dodo Rainforrest Rub,
Dodo Purple Haze,
Dodo Light Fantasic,
Soon to have Dodo Supernatural.

the blue velvet layered with the purple haze would work very nicely. about £30 a pot for each. one or the other would be fine though. would suggest the blue velvet for durability. just shout and we can try a layer of each. could also give supernatural a go. but that's £95 a pot if you wanted to buy it. dodo do refils of the supernatural which is about £65 for when you run out.

My try it next time fella.
How does it compare to the Blackfire? For £95 I would hope better, which is saying something!

Have heard great stuff about it as well and had some put on my spoiler when dotndave did a small detail on my scoob. The tight git wouldnt do the whole car 
Anyway it went on very well and looked nice when wiped and buffed, though if I was honest it didnt look any better than the BF Midnight sun I put on later, especially as it is 3 x the price of the BF stuff
anyway stop yapping you lot and post up some pics of your kit

Here`s some of my Swissvax collection, I also have loads of other stuff too, my shed looks rather like SwissTonys (but without the T-Cut 
) with everything neatly stored on shelves.

I need to get the time now to really attack the car as I want it to be pretty damn spotless and the only way I see that happening is if I get 2 clear days to do it
Looking forward to seeing the pics of your collection, must be good for a pro

I had £*** taken off me already. TBH it was an bit of a detail and machine polishing tutorial combined. Myself and olliecampbell wanted to see how it was done and also to pick up some tips on the best way to use the PC I had etc. He did a very good job but didnt get as much of the rids and swirls out as I would have liked.

if you really want to get it spotless, wetsand the whole car with 2000 grit, then 3000 grit and follow up with 4000 grit if you can get it. then polish back up with menz rd3.02 followed with mens final finish II. then seal with poorboys ex-p and then wax with a decent wax. will take you more than 2 days and don't do it unless yo uhave access to a ptg.
unfortunately some of my kit is missing and still waiting to be replaced. as it was swipped with the PC. thought it was only the pc in the case but since been looking for bits and realising they were in there.

that's not a bad idea, a little tutorial and mini detail.

I may have to avail myself of your services
One thing I do need to borrow off someone is a PTG, as I have no idea of any of the thickness of the paint anywhere on the car , be it new or old paint.
So anything done so far is done with a bit of trepidation and the softly softly approach which frankly is a bit girly and pants
