This caught my eye.
Has this been checked before side by side?
Honestly the Reload/Ech20 is good enough considering the price points.

I have been having good luck with Elixir over UK3. Then again what am I really looking for?
If I used D156 I would notice static dust build up, something I don't get with Elixir.

Keep using Elixir. It will outlast beadmaker. Elixir has a 1 month durability and is more hydrophobic.

Once winter sets in here I will use BM and BSD 50 /50 mix as drying aid. This mixture help up well for me here during the winter months .

I bought Optimum Spray Wax and Sonax BSD so far. Just finished using Optimum SW on my wife’s RAV4 and it went on easily. Honestly, seems a lot like Turtle Wax Seal & Shine lol. Anyway, pretty satisfied with the results as far as ease of use, shine, and slickness. We’ll see how it does for protection between washes. Not having any luck getting photos posted, so I’ll do this later today on my PC.

I totally forgot that I had Tapatalk on my phone, so here’s some pics...

I’m here looking to switch up the stable also.
I’m an OG DG aqua wax guy. I think that’s about all I’ve used the last 10 years.

My truck is a daily but coated with CQUK, and is garaged.

Aqua wax does everything I’m looking for in gloss, protection and slickness. Really hard to beat but I’d just like to maybe try something new for fun.

Length of protection isn’t my main concern. Look and feel I’d say are more given the above information.

I’m leaning towards adams spray wax, d156, or what else!

Car Pro Elixer will play well with your CQUK. Griots 3-1 has a good look with it’s polymers, sio2 and ‘nauba.

If money not a concern my absolute go to is Polish Angel Cosmic but will be switching to Polish Angel High Gloss as durability not my main concern either.

From my phone so excuse me.
Elixir is somewhat pricey but it will serve your purpose.
Like i said before Ech20/Reload is nice to have laying around.
D156 is great but not for this

I used Sonax BSD on my daily (06 GMC Envoy) that sits outside and is just protected by Adam's paint sealant somewhere around May timeframe. This added beading and some water hydrophobics that was pretty beaten before the wash. This is still noticeable after about two weeks of sun, rain, and frosty mornings. This car is not treated that well LOL, so there's that. Anyway, the added "in-between washes" protection is not too bad. Definitely better than Bead Maker. But, I'm not sure I like the application ease. Also, the paint wasn't even as slick as what it is with a typical detail spray, like Mothers or Meguiars. I'll try it on my wife's Rav4 to see how newer, more recently clay barred paint feels with it. Once I try a few more suggested in this thread...I have a feeling I'm going to need to buy a strip wash to use on those times where I know I'm going to lay down some new protection.

BSD won’t leave a slick surface no matter how you prep. It’s just a grabby product during removal and during the early days of it’s protection, at a minimum. But I would never discourage prepping as the LSP should perform its best and longest.
