as above if if your budget will allow or can highly recomend purple haze or the pro version :grin:

Yea I got the purple haze one, seems to working great for me so far, great beading, fairly easy to apply with a foam applicator not sure how long it lasts but iv done 2 layers and it's been 3 weeks still going strong.

as with all dodo waxs apply thinly and do 2 layers to ensure even coverage, durabilty should be around 3/4 months.

Chemical Guys 50/50 Pure Concours is a fantastic product, very under-rated. It's £40 a tin.

Very easy-on/easy-off and a lovely wet look finish.

Autosmart products are very good imho ive been using them for over 8yrs now and there products are getting better and better, the wax they do is getting good reviews on DW

Out of interest what type of cloth are you applying the Dodo wax with?
