Testing some new Juice.

I was lucky enough to be given some test versions of some new Dodo Juice products to try out. A quick detailer/drying aid and a spray sealant along the lines of Z8.

So starting with one very mucky MG.









I had my 10 year old assistant taking pictures. He got distracted! So not too many wash pics.

Wheels and arches pre-soaked with Surfex HD @ 10%.
Washed with shampoo and selection of brushes.





No pressure washer at the moment so no foam for me. I pre-soaked with Surfex @ 3% and a drop of shampoo in a spray bottle.



Rinsed off, then washed with a new Merino wool mitt and top secret shampoo using 2BM. Followed by a rinse off with an open ended hose ready for drying.

First to try the purple one, the Drier/Detailer.



Boy does this smell good, if you judge a product by how good it smells this one must be brilliant.



Misted on, the QD disperses the water as it hits it.



It also feels very lubed when you wipe the towel over. Great if you're wiper, like me, rather than a patter.

First I tried with a Super Plush Drying Towel, to test how it works with fluffy towels.



Then with a Marvel Waffle Towel, to test how it works with a waffle weave towel.





Appeared to leave a nice finish, no sign of streaking, felt nice and slick to the touch. Certainly helped with the drying process.

Right so after that I had to give the red one a try. This is the spray sealant, the fabled Z8 slayer. Not keen on the smell personally, hopefully that will be fixed in the final version.

A couple of spritz per panel and wiped over with a Super Plush Towel, followed by a little buff.



Now bare in mind that the car was last properly waxed in May with a coat of RB Original Edition and has only had a couple of top ups with Mark V Fast Wax since. This is what we got and I must say it added a nice bit of bling.

















And the mandatory beading shot.



IMO it added a nice wetness, looked very bling. The surface felt really slick too, I loved it.

 

Results look great.

 

When are these new products to be released?

 

Looks nice n glossy Ben!!!!!!

 

You're right Ben. It's blinging and It looks beautiful. Wow...:thumb:

 

Thanks Shauna.

I don't think there is an exact date yet, all I know is soon.

Thanks Heath.

 

Nice beading action.

 

Thanks. :thumb:

 

forgive my idiocy but what kind of car is that? does it say MG on it?? I thought it was a lancer for a minute but i can see thats not the case! Looks great by the way!

 

Thanks. It's an MG ZS 180. Based on a Rover 45 which in turn has Honda (Civic) DNA. It's got a sweet, silky smooth 2.5 V6 motor and a few extra bits that separate it from the Rover models.

They were quite handy on the race track, until MG ran out of cash.

 

Looks awesome cant wait to get my hands on them

 

Looks pretty good there Ben!

 

Results look promising!! Cool car.

 

Looks fantastic, very wet for yellow!

 

i have yet to really try Z8, im still on DG Aquawax and the new Optimum Spray wax are my two faves

 

How do you like the OSW? I just ordered some from eShine.

 

it seems pretty good so far, will have to wait till next month to see how it held up on a z-06 i put it on thanksgiving weekend.

it goes on pretty easy, and buffs off easily as well. just wish it was as cheap as aquawax

oh yeah, before my wife left for Kentucky, I did a coat of AJT and then topped with OSW

 

The beading picture looks good :thumb:

Thank you for sharing the pictures/review with us eace:

 

Nice how you like the dodo did it do what you wanted how you wanted

 

I like the sounds of that spray sealant. Car looks fantastic.
