SON1C Synopsis 18 : Dodo Juice - Banana Armour Carnauba Wax Review

[SON1C]

A quick review of DoDo Juice Carnauba Wax Banana Armour ..
I have briefly worked with this before, but it wasn't until I had a panel pot myself that I could truly appreciate it

Super easy on, relatively easy off granted I'm working in 40 degree cloudy weather, I'm sure its much easier to work with on a 60-80 day like anything else, the banana scent really opens up as you go along, the entire vehicle smelled like a banana upon completion lol
The client this was done for was hanging out while I detailed and always feel its really rude to bring my phone out during this time period, so pictures are scarce, however I'll update in the future once I work with it more

overall great product, easy on, moderately easy off, smells great, little goes far, reasonably priced, love the panel pots as well as their visuals, I'm a big fan of dodo juice, give it a shot you won't be disappointed

Very nice. Would you say it's better on warm colors ?

Nice review! Just got some of this in the recent BOGO.

I've used it on both and I'd say it performed better on the red than the true blue (very dark navy blue), but sonic blue isn't a warm color but I felt orange crush to perform well on it, so I'd say it varies on the color, both are great and I'd recommend them both, especially for your color p.s. try homebrew see mikes writeup on it :buffing:

I have not yet

That would be awesome.
I'm planning on buy samples of each to try out on my car.

Is there any way to get a sample of the home brew before buying it out right ? I wouldn't want to buy it if rainforest rub has a better look to it.

Im not familiar at all with Dodo products. Do certain waxes cater to specific color/paint types? For example hard candy vs rainforest rub vs bannana armour.

no there isn't unfortunately, but I have enough faith in dodo juice to not worry about it

they have a lot of wax but the core eight
4 soft
rainforest rub (any)
orange crush (warm)
light fantastic (light)
purple haze (dark)
4 hard waxes
blue velvet (dark)
banana armour (warm)
hard candy (any)
diamond white (light)

unless you want to "finger wax" then I'd go hard wax
they use different ingredients in each wax as well

Thanks for the review.

 

[SON1C]

Thanks for the review.

thanks for viewing :dblthumb2:

 

[SON1C]

Also I often get asked how much I use per application, I applied this a little heavy since it was low light and easier to see the heavier haze, this is after doing the entire vehicle (didn't treat the windows)

slight indent, but honestly I'd say 5-7 ml

 

[iBizzy]

Nice job ! Do you charge more when you use dodo.

 

[SON1C]

Normally I would, but I was looking forward to using this so I upgraded him for free
tis the season right?

 

[CM8 6MT]

Lucky customer!

 

[SON1C]

lol gotta give to get right? hopefully he appreciates it and comes back, he was talking about bringing his cobalt ss over in the spring, we'll see

 

[CM8 6MT]

With the quality work you do im sure he will be back and or recommend you to other customers!

 

[SON1C]

lol :xyxthumbs: thanks!

 

[Dr Oldz]

Nicely done. I see you have been playing with Dodo waxes a lot lately......have you tried putting a hard wax down then layering with a soft yet????? It is FUN!!!

 

[SON1C]

Thanks
I have not yet, looking forward to trying it, you think it's beneficial?
