Re: Water Beading, does this looks right???
If that isn't beading I don't know what is.... Small, symmetrical, round beads are as good as it gets.

Yeah man, looks good. That is textbook hydrophobic beading. Personally I wish there were more LSPs that sheet water instead of bead it.

Looks fine, just remember that the jeep has dirt on it and may not bead as good as if you just washed it.

So, would more wax accomplish this???

Beautiful beading. What I look for is the beads to be almost round, when the beads surface curves under before touching the paint you know you got it good. When the beads start to lay flat (what I call "lazy paint") it's time for a fresh LSP application.

No, you would need to use an LSP that is designed to do that from the start. That pretty much means no carnauba.

He wants a sheeting wax. Actually i prefer a wax that sheets water away from the paint rather than have them bead. I think you need the Autoglym HD Wax, i'm looking into getting one too, but it's too expensive. My sister can't find the $35 in any walmart in CA.
Stop whining and crying like a baby! Life sucks...deal with it!

Are there pure carnauba waxes that sheet instead of bead?
