are incredibly small and cute! i laughed when it arrived, i couldn't believe how small it was.

i guess i couldn't quantify 30ml in my head - the picture of it with a hand applying product next to it made it seem A LOT bigger than it is in "real life". apparently they use the 250ml full size for that picture ; )
 
Should get 3-4 coats of wax out of it if you go thin...
 
I did a coat of the orange crush and banana armor from those 30 ml jars and both look like they have barely been touched. I agree with agpatel at the very least. If you are doing suburbans I think you could get at least 4. With my sky I am thinking close to 10.

:iagree:I did my wifes car with the skull candy. It doesn't look like I used it yet.

Lou, how did you like the skull candy?

I did like the looks. Application was difficult because of the small 30ml size. It was hard to coat the applicator with a hard wax by just using your 2 fingers. Removal was pretty easy.
 
as long as i can get an accurate picture of how it will react (look) i'll be a-ok with this tiny thing. i'm going over OS anyway so i don't need anything but a coat or two. it's supernatural, so it's a relatively hard wax. it should be tough to use too much as opposed to softer waxes that get absorbed into the applicator and are easier to waste.

they tout it on the package as being for a panel. i'm going to do my tacoma so i'll do the hood first and spread out from there.

I feel what you are saying.....I bought 30ml and freaked out how small they were too, You can actually put them in your pants pocket...lol....
But I was told that you can get 3-4 coats on a mid size car.....which is well worth the $$
 
Nice, can we see a photo of the containers compared to your hand or another tool? (or cellphone).

Hope this helps!
 
My goodness!!! I can see how someone might think it's a normal size in a photo but that can next to the zippo, that really puts it in perspective! Wow!

Thanks for posting that.
 
You guys got me thinking. The small diameter of these tubs are a bit of a pain. Dodo should consider making them like the diameter of a regular tub and then whatever height that makes them. They might end up being only 1/8" deep at that point though. They would look like "coasters" LOL I suppose that wouldn't work out so well for marketing.... Oh well, it's early in the am, what can I say

LOL!
 
I got 7 coats on my F-150 before I gave the rest to a friend and he has gotten 2 more coats on his Crossfire and there's a little left he said. Just put it on thin and it lasts surprisingly long.
 
I think these panel pots are a pain. I tried the 30 ml of Orange crush and didn't like how difficult it was to use (I do tend to apply to thick). I did like the wax and may order the 200 ml. Then I can pop it out and apply by machine.
 
I have the 30ml supernatural and I've done 3 cars already and there is probably enough to do at least another 4 or 5 cars. Of course I applied via a PC, so that maybe why.
 
I apply it with a foam applicator which uses less product than a mf applicator but the down side is the size of the pot because it is a pain in the butt to work with although the look of DoDo is worth it.
 
The supernatural I have I actually popped it out of the little container (it's a hard wax) and spread it on my applicator. Makes it much easier.

I was thinking of doing that. Just pop it out and hold it with a glove. Then rub it onto the applicator as needed.
