Wasso Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Take a look at some of their pages and it has a strong Ricey feel to it Example : Thanks, we are going to be receiving your DodoMail very shortly. When we get DodoMail we like to flog our web department harder than an errant cabin boy so that you will get a quick reply. Our lawyers, Mr Smith and Mr Wesson, would just like to point out that dodos may or may not be harmed in the manufacturing process, if they were or were not to exist, and we accept no liability for anything, ever. Dodo Juice is a Limited Company, registered in England, no. 06183699 and the Dodo Juice logo is a registered trademark. This website and all content © Dodo Juice Ltd. MSDS data here. OK, so how much carnauba is actually in Dodo Juice? It depends on the individual wax, but Dodo Juice waxes generally have between 25%-35% carnauba content when measured without any jiggery-pokery. In our experience, the highest concentration of carnauba in a car wax that can be applied straight from a tin at room temperature is around 40%. If a manufacturer is claiming a lot more, then it is likely they are simply *calculating* a lot more. You can get Carol Vorderman to take the true percentage, divide by the number of days in the year and then multiply by the square root of your hamster's age to come up with a pleasing figure. Or you can measure carnauba by dry volume (instead of the more usual wet volume), by solids content, by overall wax content or by residual content. Basically any way you want. But it doesn't necessarily mean the wax is better. There's only one way of finding that out, and that's by slapping it on some paintwork. Needless to say, we don't state carnauba percentages on our products because they are too confusing and generally mislead the public. We'll take our chances without relying on any dubious marketing techniques. You can see an experiment we did with carnauba measurement here. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roo Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Ricey is suspect has the last dodo's left and is frantically milking them in an attempt to create his own "real" dodo juice to smear on your car.... Not sure it will be good for the paint though.... Good the bit about % wax content - very true.. lies - damn lies - and then there is statistics...

Ricey Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 They stole my idea!!!! It was like when Facebook was stolen and when Seth Green had Napster stolen from him in the Italian Job. I created 'Otter Juice' and they stole it from me!!!!!!!! Website and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
