I guess you are not understanding what I am trying to get across to you and not getting any type of answers to my questions so you are right no need to go.

It was used at 100%. I used it right out of the Dodo Juice bottle. Also the way the bottle was made it is really hard to spray the wheels and tire. With Pinnacle, Wolfgang, DP, P21S, ect you can spray the whole rim in 2-3 sprays, but you can not do that with Dodo Juice. To be honest they need to do a little more research before they release it. Its in a cool bottle that is hard to spray and smells good that is about all it can do.

Thanks for giving some more info. Let me ask a couple other things.

How long did you let it dwell, as in, did it dry up almost immediately, like IPA or something, or did you let it sit and dwell like you would P21S.

Also, what kinda cleaning strength did it seem to have, if you could tell. Were you working on dirty rims, or just light dirt/grime.

Hard to believe that the wheel cleaner failed that bad, not impossible, but just trying to figure out if it was a combo of something else that has yet to be factored in. I would have thought it would have been some decent stuff, as most of DODO's stuff is pretty decent, but who knows.

I beg to differ on the bold-ed statement above. Please look at this thread http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum...sanding-marks-griot-s-rop-wolfgang-twins.html

When removing defect there are many factors in why or why not the defect was removed.
1. the Product you used
2. Your Technique

You can use M105 the wrong way and get crappy results just like you can use TSr the wrong way and get crappy results. When using TSR you might have to go over a section 2-3 times to get all the defects out, while M105 may only take 1. But this doesn't mean that TSR cant take out harsh defects.

To answer your question both products where applied using Flex Lightweight with LC orange CCS at 1500 rpm then 1000 rpm.

In the link Mike is using wet sanding to remove the defects. Then, he is using TSR to remove the wetsanding marks. But the marks are only from 2000,2500,3000 grit paper.

Bottom line here is we just want anyone reading this to get the right information. Like Dana said, someone reading this is going to think TSR will get major defects out. TSR is a great product, but every product has it's limits. It not equal or better than 105. Likewise 105 is not equal or better than TSR. They are 2 different products for different purposes.

I sprayed it on the wheel and tires. I then started to clean the wheels with Boars Lug Nut Brush, After I cleaned the rims I cleaned the inside of the rims with Deep Reach Wire Brush. It took about 5 minutes to was the rims. I started the minute I was finished spraying the wheels. There was no dwell time. The rims were really dirty, take a look at the show and shine thread I made.


Price $21.99

In the picture the handle looks very large but in real life you can only fit one finger on the sprayer and it is it does not have a wide angle range while spraying either. For the price you are better off spending $1 more and getting P21S

You stated in many post do not compare M105 to TSR because they are in different classes and do different things and you are correct. But you also stated that comparing M205 with TSR is ok which is incorrect because they are also two different products.

As for what machine and pads I used, again I used Flex Lightweight with 6'' LC CCS orange pads @ 1500rpm then going over it again at 1000rpm.

From not on I will compare products that are closer on the chart.

They only reason I said TSR was better than M105 because that was true on this vehicle. ** Results may vary on different vehicles due to the condition of the paint and the toughness of the clear coat

O.k., now I see the problem. It is your pad choice and technique with the 105. Now do not take this wrong, I am going to explain the reason you had trouble with the 105. If the TSR is working with the orange pad and speed, then you are doing the exact samething with alot more aggressive product you are going to have what you feel is something that is not working. Now if you would have changed your pad and speed and technique you would have seen great results. Also I realize you are new to working with a rotary and 105 does take time to master, but like I said in I believe my first post it was technique. A lot of people have struggled with 105 with a rotary so I can see were you are feeling that it wasn't up to par for you. Once again DO NOT take this the wrong way. Also if I missed in another post what you said you used with the 105 I apologize.

Dodo Juice Rim Cleaner - I was very disappointed in there rim cleaner. The products dries way to fast (rims where cool and I was working in the shade) The wheels I was working on were super dirty and by the time I was done cleaning the rim and I rinsed them off it would leave dirt residue all over the rim. I had to wash the front rims 2-3 times to get them completely clean. I would not recommend this product to anyone that will be cleaning really soiled rims. Stick to Pinnacle or P21S.

Ouch! I'm sure the Dodo guys aren't too happy with this review? Especially when it basically attempts to criticize(and disrespect) their integrity in respect to R & D. I totally understand your thoughts on not holding back on giving an honest review, but I can't imagine the AG VIPs liking such harsh criticism of a vendor by one of their representatives? Regardless, I guess I won't be considering trying this product.

I don't think about that the company will think about when I write these reviews. I think about the customers. I just want the give the customers an honest review and hope that some companies that read them will make steps to improving their products.
 
I wish I would have found this review before adding Dodo Juice Mello Yellow wheel cleaner to my Christmas list. This stuff just flat out sucks. When I first started spraying, I felt like someone in a salon trying to mist hair. I switched bottles so that I could cover my wheels and tires. I then sprayed the tires and wheels and let it stand for a couple minutes. I scrubbed the tires then moved to the wheels. Not impressed. This stuff is not worth the money. I just hope the Supernatural Shampoo and the wax samplers make up for it.

Give AG a call on Monday and tell them you're not happy with it. They will definitely make it right. :dblthumb2:
 
It's not AG's fault it sucks. I used the majority of the product just trying to clean the wheels and tires. I'm not going to worry about it though, I just know that I won't buy this stuff again. Going to try Pinnacle and Wolfgang tire & wheel cleaner next, hopefully it will be worth the money!

Doesn't matter if you used all of the product, and you are correct that it's not AG's fault that it sucks. But they will stand behind it and make it right. Plus they need to recieve the feedback so they can make adjustments as needed.

Yes thats why I want them to fix it. Their waxes are great. I just want their rim cleaner to be as good.

Possibly the confusion came about as per your wording; "I hope the Dodo Juice fixes this problem" , lead me to believe that you hoped the Dodo juice would fix this problem. Perhaps if you had stated that "I hope Dodo juice fixes this problem" leaving the word "the" out, or "I hope that Dodo Juice fixes this problem" it would have been more clear. Not trying to pick at you, just offering a suggestion that may help in the future.

Thanks,

Tad

What does MYWC stand for? It's the first time I've seen that. I read it as sullysdetailing wanted Dodo Juice (the company) to fix the problem - improve their product. I don't understand the confusion.
