My Sis-in-Law brought me over some Dodo Juice from the UK for my birthday (along with a couple of Sonus towels). Thought I'd share a couple of the results.

I applied it with the applicator pad, not my fingers.

Really loving it. I also finally got round to blacking out the chrome strips on the grille. A vast improvement IMO (and the wife still hasn't noticed!):cool:

Sorry for large pic sizes. worth clicking to see full size IMO :D




This is an old one with Megs wax, but I like the colours in the pic...


Thanks for lookin:xD

PS I always hated the look when people blacked the tyre sidewalls - reminds me of 2nd hand car dealers. Now I can see I need to do the same.:frustrated:

We do, I just blanked it out for security.
Nice, what did you use to black out the grill? I aksed Dave how to do it with the tape but have also had various quotes from bodyshops. Still undecided!

Did you polish the car, or just wash and wax? And what wax is it? Purple Haze?
Well spotted Ed...didnt realise you had blacked out your grill either...tell us ur secret :)

I just used black electrical tape. 7mm wide iirc, only needs to be about 5mm though. Took me about 20 mins to fit (I trimmed to exact length once fitted on the car). You can spot it if you look, I could have been more meticulous and made it impossible to spot. (eg by removing the slats so the tape goes behind the VW roundel)

I haven't polished the car ever. Trying not to get too obsessive about it. (It could happen easily!).

Megs Gold Class Shampoo with a mitt (2 bucket method obviously)
Auto Glym Final Show Shine (can't find Megs QD locally)
Purple Haze
Auto Glym Final Show Shine.

You should deffo do the grille Ed, I love it. The front of the car looks less like a Passat/Jetta now!

I'm scared to drive it now in case it gets dirty!:unsure:
Looking good James ;-)
