Before George Lucas rings his lawyer, he should be aware that Dodo Juice don’t legally refer to the Supernatural Wash Mitt by its colloquial and popular nickname: ‘The Wookie’s Fist’, but it’s not difficult to see where the name has come from. I’ve even heard rumours that the mitt has been known to eat lesser wash mitts, drink half your bucket in one go and is being entered in this year’s Crufts…
As the holy grail of wash mitts, the Supernatural Wash Mitt has a lot to live up to but thankfully it never disappoints. An ultra-soft wash mitt with a massively deep pile, so if wash mitts are your thing then this is the daddy.
Looking after your Wookie’s Fist
Some have been known to spend more time grooming their Supernatural Wash Mitt than they do their own pets (or even themselves) but I would argue it’s equally as important. Made from natural sheepskin, a soggy, unloved mitt can rot. Just follow these steps:
- Comb the mitt before use, as debris like grass seeds can be caught in the long hair – use a metal pet comb or brush
- After use, rinse under a warm tap to remove as much debris and dirt as possible – do not machine wash (if you must, make sure the mitt is in a pillow case to prevent the long pile being caught).
- Use a dedicated wool detergent if the mitt is very dirty
- Allow to dry NATURALLY with the cuff propped open (section of neck of a clean plastic bottle, perhaps) – DO NOT TUMBLE DRY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES – do not place on hot radiators… you don’t want the mitt to completely dry out and become brittle
- Comb with the pet comb or brush to get the coat fluffy again
The world’s priciest wash mitt.
RRP 19.95 GBP

We were just about to get some normal round foam applicators made, when we realised that they didn’t fit inside a pot of wax very well. Sure, you could fold one in two and scrunch it up a bit. But that’s hardly ideal. And then just as we were dipping our bare fingers into a pot of wax to hand-apply it to the flanks of some lucky car, we had a revelation… what if we created a super soft foam finger mitt? This would allow for the tactility of fingertip application, with the consistency and ease of using a foam applicator.
You also wouldn’t have to worry about the applicator being dropped or blown away in the wind, and neither would you have to fold it in two. Job done. We then specced it up (110ppi foam – as soft as it gets) and had them hand stitched by our supplier (thank you, Morvan) at great expense – glue or sonic welding weren’t strong enough to create what we had in mind. This means that they’re pricey for an applicator, but we think that it’s worth it – they’re the best you’ll find.
Single pack RRP 3.95 GBP.

If you have a dog or long haired girlfriend, you’ll know how annoying they can be. Not the dog or girlfriend (although both can have their moments), but hairs. They’ll stick to carpet, upholstery, headlining. Anything.
So as an answer, Dodo Juice have sourced a professional grade 10cm wide sticky roller with a reusable, ergonomic handle, for removing lint, hairs, fluff and other debris from fabrics inside the car. It can even work outside the car on canvas soft tops.
Unlike the cheaper ‘clothes rollers’ you get, this comes with a proper sized perforated roll of sticky sheets – 20 metres long to be precise, or about 5x as long as the cheap rollers. Once you’ve captured all the hair and lint you can and the sheet has lost its stickiness, just tear it off to expose a fresh sheet underneath. Then, once the roll has been used up, replace it with a new one.
Sticky Roller Kit RRP 24.95 GBP. (shown)
Sticky Roller Handle RRP 15.95 GBP.
Sticky Roll refill (20m) RRP 9.95 GBP

I’m sure I’m not the only one that’s tried just about all of the bumper gels or exterior trim care creams in an attempt to give plastic bodywork that deep gloss finish, and I’m certain I’m not the only one that’s been disappointed 30 minutes after the treatment has dried and lost it’s lustre!
Well according to Dodo Juice, crystal resin is where it’s at and from the feedback I’ve been hearing they’ve got it spot on. I’d never heard of crystal resins before but a bit of digging around reveals that crystal resins are essentially a type of fast-drying laquer that leaves a coating around 50x thicker than other wax or sealant layers.
So what you’re left with after an application of Supernatural Trim Sealant is a protected black trim with a durable, lasting shine. Crystal resins also help reblacken trim that has greyed due to exposure to UV-rays and can be removed with solvent, so are non-permanent!
Supernatural trim sealant isn’t suitable for paintwork though as it’s not buffable but for plastic trim I don’t know of anything better. Primarily aimed at the experience enthusiast, a bottle contains 50ml of trim sealant and includes a microsuede finishing cloth.

This isn’t a spray bottle – This is a specially selected Dodo Juice Let Us Spray spritz bottle. Ok, I admit it is just a bottle but as you’ve come to expect with Dodo Juice, it’s the details that count.
So what’s good about these bottles? Well you’ve got two choices of spray – trigger or finger for starters. Then there are two bottle sizes of 250ml or 500ml.
The bottles are good for any diluted products, clay lube, etc but it’s probably wise not to fill them with radioactive waste or anything like that.
Even the spray heads have been hand picked to ensure you get a nice fine mist instead of wastefully blobbing product on each spray. Oh, and the label is clear so that the liquid provides the colour for the Dodo Juice logo – see, it’s all in the details! Buy Let Us Spray bottles
