    Without mentioning names, I have been using a varity of polishes and waxes on my 360 Modena and 348 ts with marginal results. This year I had the local F dealer do a $250.00 detail ( inside and out ) with great results. Since I really enjoy doing it myself, I continued to look for a wax. Then I read about Dodo Juice products in the UK and Svisswax in Europe. I quicky made a decision to pass on the $1100.00 Svisswax in favor of the way more reasonable Dodo Juice in an attempt to find something that worked. I was sure I had the paint at a reasonble deep color red lustre, and was looking more for protection than anything else.
    Well, the Dodo Juice was incredible. Deeper red, a wet look and a finish as smooth as glass. I may be wrong but it just seems to stay cleaner longer. Also used it on the wheels and less brake dust to remove...Just passing it along

    Very cool site with subliminal message. Just as mouseovers really bring out the details without being the least bit subtle, so too will the product.

    Curious if you've tried P21S products, wax? My current favorite for ease of application, appearance wonder how they compare to Dodo in your opinion?

    ..

    Have not tried the p21s products, but have tried the other usual suspects with so so results. Dodo Juice is the best so far. Also like the Mequirs show car glaze for a fast wet look, ( my car is red ) but Dodo does that now, all in one application...
    I really think when you get past the point of sanity with the prices of some waxes, ie $1100.00 Swivwax. For that kind of money not only should the car be seen with only sunglasses but a "babe" should come with the wax to make the inside look good...Just my opinion.....
