Default Albatross Post DoDo Wax

Well after 3 hours work, and some quick photos before the sun went down I give DoDo products a Dark silver isn't the best colour to get a deep and lush wax, but I'm very impressed by the little amount of the product needed, and how easy it was to apply and polish off. The roof is like a mirror finish too.

Results of what I'd call a quick clean (click-able thumbnails)










Even dressed the wheels for you Chris

Looks good matey, I need to find some time to Dodo mine...what exactly did you invest in?

I've already got the Lime juice, pre-wax treatment stuff, what have you used?

Started with the Born to be mild shampoo, and then thoroughly dried and used the Light Fantastic Wax for the coating (very easy to apply and remove).

The black trim/tyres were dressed with MINIs own products which I have still to use up.

Also picked up some 'Need for Speed' Cleaner wax for topping up the shine, and will continue to use the mild shampoo to wash with.

I know it's expensive compared to some products, but you use so little each time it'll last ages.
