I use dodo juice blue velvet on my wr blue blobeye and get great results , which is a real bonus as it came with the car ! Previous to this I'd never used a solid wax , always liquid but this stuff is a doddle to apply

Dodo waxes aren't the most durable, I would recommend you get megs no. 16, you can't do far better than that.

Dodo waxes are very good and would recommend them to you as they will give you a great finish always.

I've been using Dodo Juice Supernatural for near a year now & I would def reccommend it it if you value good results. I find on my cool grey scoob it brings up a nice flake pop. It is dear but unquestionably good value if you like a good finish. There are more durable waxes out there but dodo juice is so easy to apply I don't mind having to top up quite often. Preperation is the key - a good clay or polish before you wax is the key for a good finish.

Got several Dodo products, including buckets, cloths etc. Good quality stuff.

I use the Purple Haze on my black car. It's for darker cars. Have done a good handful of waxes and there's loads left. It's easy to apply and cost about £35 for a tub.

Not a bad reflection here, but like others say...it's the prep work too.

I use Supernatural with Red mist over the top. Amazing shine and protection. Been using Swissol/Swissvax for years and honestly prefer the Dodo juice

Changed to using Dodo Juice on mine last year, think it's the best I have used and well worth the cash.




Not WR Blue, but you get the idea.

Supernatural isn't really colour specific as far as I know and anybody I know that's used it on any colour has had a grat shine.
