    I've gotten two of the 30 ML sample pots (still havent finished the first one off!) and i have the 250 ml bottles of need for speed cleaner wax and lime prime, the 500ml bottle of Born to Be Mild (which is the size i would be ordering) and i desperately want a couple 500 ML bottles of Red Mist. I think the next supernatural purchase i make will be the standard 200ml plastic tub of it, i just dont think i want a fancy wooden pot!

    Wow, are you thinking about stocking Dodo??? Would be an amazing line to add to your growing one-stop-shop!

    Justin, the only things from them I've tried are Rubbish Boy's Juiced Edition, and Lime Prime. I like them both. I prefer Ben's original edition to the Dodo edition, but the Dodo one is also very good, and much less fussy to use. Lime Prime is also good, but as you may have seen, I've become skeptical of the whole idea of a "pre wax cleaner," so I don't really use it anymore.

    There was recently a review of Dodo's "Red Mist" QD / Spray sealant hybrid thing. Musc posted it, and he really liked the stuff. I might be convinced to try it, but now that you've got me hooked on OID, I'd have to think about it :)

    If you started carrying their line, I'd probably become a whole lot more willing to experiment. I'm trying to do a better job of not buying stuff for the sake of buying stuff this year - once I've found something I like, I try to stick with it. Just trying to save a little money this way.

    I'd suggest Bilt-Hamber, but I know most of us are interested in them for their clay, which you won't be able to carry here in the states. So that may not prove worthwhile. Their Auto Balm stuff is very good though - I've used it before, and if you're looking for something for a quick "make it better" detail that's got some filling ability, that's a great product.

    Hope that helps a little!

    Same here man. I plan on finding something I like and ordering in bulk. I got a thing of Surf City Garage Beyond Steel and it went like nothing, so I ordered a gallon of CG Sticky Gel, considering it's all wheel safe, and hope to stick (no pun intended) with it. Duragloss is definitely one that I'll keep tucked away in my arsenal, it looks great on wheels. I still need to experiment more with my Jeff's Werkstatt, I've yet to the use the carnauba spray.

    When I order Dodo Juice I tend to order the larger sizes. The saying a little bit goes a long with is very true with Dodo products, I just don't want to feel like every time I turn around I'm ordering more product.
    I've got Lime Prime, Lime Prime Lite, Need For Speed, Born to Be Mild, Purple Haze, Blue Velvet, Supernatural, and RBOE. On my list to pick up this week is Red Mist, Born Slippy, Sour Power, and Time to Dry. I may even try out a few of their microfibers while I'm at it.

    Yes, I'm going to be stocking Dodo! I'm just trying to decide what I'm wanting to carry.

    Hehe! :doh:

    I've have been thinking about doing a nice preorder special. Just haven't decided what I'm going to do yet.

    DoDo has a lot of great products. I was really impressed by the Red mist QD! It's more like a spray on sealant. A little bit of it goes a long ways. It really has some great beading on its own.

    I will be reviewing the Sour power and Born to be Mild shampoos, Born slippy clay lube, Time to dry drying detailer, and trigger bottles soon!! They are already in transit. I am sure they are all great products as well.

    I think if you have to choose one size, the bigger size would be better, though the 250ml red mist is nicely priced, should last awhile, and would probably get more people to try it at a lower price point.

    It would be nice if a US DoDo vender had those crazy clear DoDo buckets! Seems shipping is an issue though. I would certainly buy a set though.

    Good luck :thumb:

    You will like the BTBM shampoo. I'm ordering up the rest of the stuff to do one heck of a detail in my GTO after the rebuild is done.

    Juztang that's awesome that you're going to carry Dodo products now. Going to make it tough for Ben to get it delivered to me faster than you can.

    Amen to that! How is it that in the U.S. we can't find one friggin clear 5 gallon bucket!

    Been wanting to try that shampoo for awhile. Definitely looks like a good one!


    Man I have searched and searched and there is no clear bucket like it in the US! I talked to DoDo USA and they were going to try and find the supplier and offer a US version, but no promises. I think it would be about 109 bucks just for shipping from Ben with the current exchange rates!! So you are looking at 170 buck for 2 buckets with grit guards and labels!

    Somebody could order them as a large bulk and save shipping overall, but then I am sure that shipping charge has to be worked back into the product price so they aren't losing $ on the item. Then we have to have it shipped from a US retailer again, so you may not even end up saving $.

    I will probably break down and buy them eventually, but I will probably feel guilty every time I wash my car using 170 dollar buckets!

    Right now I really don't want to stock of all the waxes. I will probably start out carrying about 4. The waxes that I've decided to stock for sure are Supernatural and Purple Haze. I'm also leaning towards Orange Crush and Blue Velvet. Any opinions here?

    Rainforest Rub is another good one imo.
