Re: Best easy to use Topper
Meguiar's M799 might be an option. Per Meguiar's up to 90 days of protection at full strength.

As The Guz mentioned, M799 from Meguiar's. The consumer version is readily available in Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Detailer if you wish to test it out.

Re: Best easy to use Topper
Check out Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Detailer (it's the same chemistry as M799 diluted 3:1). Works extremely well. Exceeded my expectations. At full strength I'd expect even greater durability. Readily available and easy to work with.

Re: Best easy to use Topper
I voted Need for Bead. I think it’s similar to Beadmaker but I use less per application and it’s slightly easier to use in my opinion (I’ve not had streaking issues). They are very close though.
I always liked UQW but for gloss and slickness, the two above are better. UQW is a great drying aid but that’s not your purpose.
Haven’t tried 3D.

Re: Best easy to use Topper
I’ve only used Meguiars and DP on that list. I live off of a dirt road and surrounded by farm fields so Beadmaker is out due to every review saying it attracts dust.
DP gets my vote it is stupid slick, great beading and I’ve had it last a month as a stand alone. It’s a great product.

Re: Best easy to use Topper
Used UQW for the first time last week (on a dry car) and thought my eyes were sorta playing tricks on me because I swear I saw gloss improve right away. I wasn't really interested in the durability of this product, but it's good enough as a topper for me.
Regarding Bead Maker - I haven't been more confused about a product than I have with this. Having never used it, I've seen videos of people swearing by it, claiming it adds slickness and gloss like no other, but has no real durability. I've also seen videos (Sandro @ Car Craft Auto Detailing, in paritcular) where he applies Bead Maker to a dark panel and there really isn't any significant boost in gloss whatsoever. Now, thanks to this thread, I'm hearing something about it attracting a lot of dust.
Also, doesn't Bead Maker require 8hrs or so fully reach its potential? Everything that I've seen so far points to this product making the paint feel exceptionally slick. I don't put much weight behind the paint being slick (because I never want to touch it!), but I can see why this would be appealing to many people.

Re: Best easy to use Topper
I’ve heard enough jiba jaba hearsay about attracting dust, yet zero proof.
I guess I’ll have to provide it myself because all everyone seems to want to do is talk… Talk is cheap, and I ain’t buying any.
50/50 Beadmaker test on a black vehicle coming up later today. We’re going to find out the truth.
