    Re: Dr Beasley’s Bead Hero

    From what I’ve read to truly be hydrophilic you bead to flood whole panel. When you have rain it doesn’t flood whole panel thus does not pull all water off panel.

    I think I read that on AG. Don’t know how true that is.

    Also remember it saying when sitting still in rain will still get beads and thus water spots.

    I think that's right. I don't think you can have one without the other. Can Coat beads well, and also sheets very fast when you flood the surface. The go hand in hand.

    I asked about this Bead Hero and they claim it has extremely fast sliding angle and is great as a stand alone.

    Wonder what it's longevity is as a standalone?

    Re: Dr Beasley’s Bead Hero

    I'm going to guess 6 months give or take...they say up to a year in ideal conditions. It could be like a Cosmic/Adam's Graphene type product is what I'm thinking.

    Per their website: "Bead Hero can last as long as a year (or more) with proper surface preparation and maintenance."

    I haven't seen many positive reviews of their coatings though. We'll see. I watched the Chicago Auto Pros video of how they got started. Very small company. They do pride themselves in using very good top shelf chemicals.

    I had pretty good luck with their LS-10 spray coating...never tried any of their other products

    They said similar to LS 10. Up to a year but stressed “up to”

    With the disappointment from them in past and nothing except a true/lite coating going a year I’m happy with 3/4 months of protection like in video.

    I doubt this could last a year unless the car is garaged. Wolfgang SPC only lasts 6 months in northern conditions outdoors.
