We were all once at his stage, tbf. Although perhaps not quite as poor beading...

It's not a Clio, or even a Renault. But what it is, is another frech hot hatch from the early 90's all beeding up!

Kyle 86 · Apr 22, 2014

Dunno whats happened there. Swissvax beads up nice normally

Yellow Dave · Apr 22, 2014

Amberlamps, how dirty was the car when the photo was taken? Just washed and beading or sitting for a few days with settled dust?

looking at that, I'd imagine there is a fine layer of dust/dirt settled on the paint.

Amberlamps · Apr 22, 2014

I washed it on Sunday and it has been out and about since then. Was kinda disappointed when i seen it this morning :dead:.

Bit of Hydr02 action applied 3 weeks ago and still showing strong signs of protection:

This weekend our cars were covered in another fine layer of dust again. As soon as there's a substance to sit between your wax and the water the beading and sheeting will instantly be affected regardless of which wax or sealant. Give it a quick wash and see how it performs with clean paint. I'm sure it'll be back to what you'd expect

Exactly what I was going to post. SV normally is really tight.

Amberlamps · Apr 22, 2014

Never thought of that tbh, that dust is a right pita! It'll have to wait for another wash though, well, till the weekend. I'll see what it looks like then.

Cheers.

Not a dig at any one but please post which product you've used if you're going to post a pic ?

There's some nice beading shots, some one might want to try your LSP products ?

Guys/Jay

Sent a sample of Obsession Wax | Bead Edition to sample and make a short video displaying it's water behavior. Please also bear in mind this was on a non-deconn'd 207, so I'm sure there would be an increase in structure with tar, fallout removal and claying process carried out.

Maybe worth a shot if some of you guys are planning on summer shows, not needing durability as by Jay's own admission this will last circa 2 weeks maximum with no polymers & all natural ingredients.
