When the ridiculous IA cold finally subsides I'm planning on a multiple-day detail and trying out some new things.

One thing I want to do is try to get the tightest water beading pattern that I can. Anyone have recommendations on how? I am planning on putting a coat of Pinnacle SSII on, and then also heard about Dodo Juice Red Mist Tropical Quick Detailer. Anyone have any feedback on that particular product?

Also, I was thinking about trying to learn to spit-shine... anyone know of any definitive guides on the subject? If not, with the findings I would be glad to author a thread on the subject once I get the hang of it ;-)

There's a couple good threads on spit shining on Meguiar's Online.

ridiculous beading ... original P21S, Zaino Z2, Klasse Twins. Now each will vary on how long but some of the best beading initially.

Pinnacle Signature Series II and Collinite 915 have in my opinion the best beading that I have seen in my experience of trying all sorts of sealants and waxes. Now, I am a sucker for awesome beading even though beading is not always the best for avoiding waterspots or displaying the level of paint protection present.
