    Smart Car with DoDo Armour

    This belongs to a long time porsche client of mine.
    It is her around town car, to cut the gas and maintance on the porsche.

    It is 8 months old, and never been waxed. This is the first time dealing with this car.
    I gave it a bath with dawn and the schmitt. All the yellow body panels are plastic, and the black stripe is the only metal on the outside of the vehicle.

    I went with the Flex 3401 and a org cross grove pad. With OP and meg 105, one to two pea sized drops per panel.

    Went with the Banana Armour from DoDo Juice. I thought since it is a yellow smart car. I would use the banana armour since it was yellow

    It went on very easy, and this one too goes a long way when applied. One panel at a time then went back and wiped it off.
    Surf City Beyond Black went on the tires.

    Does the wax cost more than the car?

    Well since Smart Cars go for a little less then $20,000 (last time I heard) I would say that is a WHOLE lot of wax to even them out!

    Very nice job, but Smart cars should simply be thrown in the garbage where they belong.

    WOW! The yellow is so bright and shiny! Good job. I've seen a few of them on the road but never one up close. I had no idea the panels are plastic! What a dichotomy: Porche and Smart Car.
