    Re: Meguiars M188 Deep Crystal Coating

    You guys go and listen to Larry Kosillas (Ammo NYC) podcast with Jason Rose from Megs. He talks about coatings here in the US and why they have not release a coating here yet... It has to do with what they feel the customer wants and needs out of a coating. He said that in Asia, the coating market is more of a mature market whereas here, it is still a newer add-on compared to other markets.
    He also talks about the properties that everyone wants are all different, and what is best for the paint is not the massive beading shots we all like, but a product that would sheet the water off the car to leave it virtually dry as to mitigate any water spots.

    Good stuff, go and listen. It is a long two part podcast, but well worth it.

    No products that I know of sheet. Most all bead. Same for coatings right?

    Ammos own products bead right?

    This is exactly the reasoning behind what Jason was saying to Larry, beading is nice, its a great show, but for actual protection of the paint, sheeting water off fast would be the best so as not to have beads sitting there causing spots.

    As my posting history will affirm:
    I've always been a proponent of "water sheeting".
    Beading, IMHO, can lead to the damnation of auto paint,
    and other auto components as well.

    Although beading is used by some as a gauge, saying that's proof positive that an LSP is still present and accounted for...
    that still doesn't excuse the horror stories of the accountings of water-spotting/etchings/etc. attributable to water beading.
