Guy, I am not a detailer just a someone who likes his car to look good so forgive me if I don't know the p's and q's in the detailing world.
I googled Dodo and the first one that came up was the 95.95 one. However thanks to you I now see there is a cheaper tub from your link. I have taken a note of it and will order it for when the GTI will arrive as it is Pearl Black and I understand the Purple haze is good for black.

Would you keep me right here. I was going to put a couple of coats of Glare on first as I have a couple of bottles to use up.. Then finish off with the Purple haze.
Thanks for any info as it will be appreciated :smiley:


like most manufactures they have more than one product... they have base products all the way up to the expensive shizzle for the mk6 boys and girls...

what Glare products do you have to use up... in the same vein as Dodo they do quite a few! http://glareuk.com/shop/index.php?route=common/home

First thanks for any help.

I maybe wrong here but I think I would put the Purple Haze Dodo on first as it's a wax then put on the Glare as it's a sealant on top ?

you were right the first time.. remember you have a polish/sealant there so the polishing particles will work on whatever they are being applied to... do they tell you to use more than one coat? if not then you might be wasting your time?

i would apply

glare (according to manf instructions)

I have lots of little white flies stuck to the roof of my car,i washed it yesterday because of the white flies on the roof and bugger me they are back this morning,they are stuck to the roof.Are they attracted to something in the Dodo juice ? if not they must be sky diving onto my car roof because they are stuck fast ,there are none on my green touran parked next to the golf. :undecided:

This isnt the first time I've read about people using a product and some kind of insect or other being attracted to it, I dont know if its bad luck or if insects realy are attracted by some of the products we use  :undecided:

I'm using normal Purple haze atm and I was planning to replace it with Colli 476 but after seeing those pics I'm very very tempted by the PH pro, cracking finish on a cracking car  :cool:
