Car pro Exlir or P&S beadmaker. Is one better than the other?
I’ve heard good things about each product. Is one better or more durable than the other? I was gonna order the bead maker and do a 50/50 on my hood with it & Elixr but it was outta stock on my last order. I guess that shows how popular it is.

Beadmaker is a glorified detail spray. It has no durability whatsoever. I have no experience with Elixr.

Yeah, but those of us that like to feel our paint, no QD comes close.

I guess in camaro's defense the OP's question including asking durability.
"better" is a completely subjective thing where you need to know what qualities they're looking for. No doubt Beadmaker gets high praise for slickness and low cost.

I get that..didn't say BM had better durability. Just adding that BM was slicker.

You can reach more than 30 days beading from Elixir using on the car.
and something we found interesting lately, its possible to use it like Hydro2 as well, spray on rinse off !!
so we can say its becoming like Hyper quick detailer :-)

AVi is this because the formula has Hydro2 in it?

I have had both for the past month, and I can honestly say I was not really impressed with Elixir. I would rather just use Hydro 2 regularly for the price, and it seemed that it is much better mixed with the separate ingredients for some reason (Merlin's magic sauce). Beadmaker has lasted 3 weeks through rain/snow/ice and still beads great. This is over a ceramic coating put on 8 months ago. So far, despite the hype, claims of not lasting long...I have been impressed with Beadmaker.

Could it be that the ceramic coating that you applied 8 months ago is causing the beading and not BM? How do you know when BM or any topper is still there?

Elixir has been fine to use for me. I am not jumping on the beadmaker bandwagon though so no comment on that.
