Good Beading??

[jayxx83]

my effort using srp egpx2 and collinites 476

Note where the protection is accumulated (not a gripe, just saying it always happens what ever you do, due to doubling up!)

Egp and 476 is my fave! Beads like combos that costs 3x as much!

I <3 476

Hai.

Think which part see's the most action when sealing/polishing/waxing . . .

The edges, you go over most parts twice, i.e. back and forth, hence there are no droplets on the edges of the above bonnet . . .

edit; yes it's sad that I know these things . . .

Beats far more because it's shite and saps the colour. Winter yes. For summer that should stay in the cupboard.

On blue's I agree, only use it on my wheels. Certain on silvers, wouldn't be that noticeable.

 

[whatisjustis]

What about Flame Red? What makes 476 useless in the Summer?

Didn't sap the colour on Gaz's blue car.

naaah bollox imo. The srp/epg collinites is an awesome combo. In the summer i tend to use say P21s over the epg, as it seems to add a wee more depth..... through the winter nothing touches collinites imo

 

[makavelli]

A bit of RB beadage for the thread

Really hasn't took any colour from my car. Shines bloody awesome with Collinites 476, even if it is "summer".

fk1000p beads with dust.

You can also layer straight after you buff off with fk1000p, it needs 20mins to cure before you can buff off.

fk1000p is a detailing world fad. Wont hear of it in a years time

There are pics of it beading with dust.

It started off as a fad on wheels and now people are using it on paint.

Don't see why not, as it's used on boats and such like, gets a 10 for durability.

Which in my book is pretty damn good for the cost and the size of the pot you get.

Where can you buy fk1000p from, quite fancy trying it for wheels etc, can't find it on the usual suspects.

You can use it on the wheels and paint.

I wouldn't put it on the windows though cos it'll smear which is bad lol.

Just leave it on for 20 mins to cure and then buff off, then you can reapply straight away.

 

[Gaz.]

I never wax windows anyway

 

[alex-avfc]

Richy, your combination of SRP, Wet Mirror Finish then Blue velvet might not have bonded well together which might be a reason why the beading isnt so good.

I know its endless and expensive!! but try out a few different combo's and find out what works best

heres my attempt from back in march

Would you say theres a better choice of 'summer' wax for blue cars then? (Car in question is a 172 Cup). Im using 476 atm but if theres a better choice......

I agree Ali my friend, Dodo is the choice this summer.

476 All winter months protection in 2 layers!
