Dear Friends

I took my son to an indoor playground this afternoon. When we returned to our van, we noticed it'd been raining, so I took this quick picture with our iPhone.

This beading is from Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant and Blackfire Midnight Sun paste wax.

The wax is six weeks old.

Damn, and I can't get MPL to last but a few weeks on my paint in Florida. Last time I used that stuff, I applied it by machine, let it dry for maybe a half hour, buffed it off, came back the next day after a quick rinse, applied another coat, let it dry a half hour, buffed it all off, didn't touch the paint for a whole week until the next car wash. During that time, I drove through some crazy rain and greasy, grimy roads, and the water did not bead one bit on the paint. After I saw that, I switched to 3M Performance Finish, just one coat, and it is still beading after 2 weeks of grime and junk from the wet roads. Going to try Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax this weekend, mostly because I use Meg's D156 when I dry the paint and as a touch up for my LSP. Hopefully it'll work out.

We got the first rain in quite a while, so I was able to get a good look at the beading action.

This is the hood of my Mazda3 with the Klasse Twins applied about four months ago and Sonus Glanz applied three weeks ago.
