    Re: Awesome Experience with P&S Beadmaker

    I can’t seem to recall where I’ve seen it, but it was mentioned somewhere that Bead Maker gets better and better with more uses in terms of durability. Can anyone agree?

    Adam’s is nice and PH neutral if that’s important. For the price I like optimum Car wash better. Alternate between that and reset

    Can’t say for sure this is where you heard that, but I know fellow AG’er Eldorado2k, used it standalone for a few months and topped up regularly and stood by its effectiveness of used that way. I don’t think he’d say it’s quite durable without regular application though, but used often enough he liked it a lot. That praise coming from somebody who like me, couldn’t stand the hype around the product and didn’t jump on the bandwagon.

    I reckon it is much better to stay on top of things, rather than the opposite, to neglect a vehicle. Carry on Montague! :-)

    I used to have similar feelings about Renny as well. Got to meet him and spent some BSing with him at Detail Fest 2018 and he’s definitely down to earth guy.

    Did you use Pearl out of a foam cannon, foam gun or in the bucket? It's been on sale a few times, and I was gonna get some....maybe now I'll give it a try

    I used a foam cannon a couple of times and it foams up well. Most of the time I use it in a bucket.

    For winter months I use a 50 / 50 mixture of BM & BSD. Helps with rinsing off salt and grime .

    Yes that’s true, it does get better with more uses and there’s more people out there confirming it.

    Re: Awesome Experience with P&S Beadmaker

    I was thinking the same about the person as being Pam I have never tried bead maker and probably won’t because I have far to many products it just seems like another super detailer that excels in one category and is average in the rest like slickness, gloss, durability or hydrophobic’s. I’m waiting on Graphene fest or I mean SEMA 2020 for new products
