Post Your Beading Shots!!!

That is encouraging, I appreciate the info

Someone cracked a whip on the "installer" because the interior looks like a totally different car now

I think maybe letting the head of the department know that I knew what I was talking about and what I was expecting possibly got me a bit of extra effort

If I remember correctly Ceramic Pro was a competitor for Cquartz professional back on the day.

To use their products you've always had to been a "certified installer" although before all you had to do was pay a fee and you were certified. Apparently now you have to have "at least 3 years detailing experience, or paint protection film and window tint installation" to apply for certification. Their coatings are decent.

Here is a video from 10 years ago. That kind of beading 10 years ago was up there with other brands.

Can Coat Evo. 2 layers. Hour apart.

I applied it with a rectangle MF applicator then did the second layer with a mf towel. I think I do prefer the towel method actually. Either way Can Coat is an awesome product.

I guess now the wildcard is how well they prepped and applied it so fingers crossed

I did notice on the website FAQs under "how do I maintain it" they said it is simple, just keep it washed with a good auto shampoo or DISH WASHING LIQUID

My heart kind of stopped after reading that

:wowwow:

I LOVE beading shots like this where it looks like a perfect little ball of liquid metallic paint

Awesome

I applied it Friday when it was 55F and windy. I was able to still get it done and it came out great. It rained 24 hours later. I took these shots this morning and like a whacko I pulled out my blower and blew off the drops 7:30am LOL.

I woke up to this beading shot

We were actually having decent weather but March and April can bring some wicked storms

Its almost 16 years old and about ready to turn over 200,000 on the odometer but it has been a great ride

We are keeping it for now but my wife is constantly telling me about squeaks and stuff she is hearing that I can't hear so it's not going on any long trips

Plus she has to have a step stool to get up in it and it is rough riding with the OME suspension

That's one of the main reasons we bought the new Lexus after she had spinal surgery

Beading left after the first of this afternoon's thunder storms. Almost horizontal roof shot shows big evenly spaced beads, more inclined hood shot shows only small beads left behind.

Constant rain today, so beading pics it is. The Qashqai has NV Lustre/Jet on it, also Boost V2, but I am testing TWHS Graphene Infused Max Wax on the wing mirrors, and I think the beads in the 3rd pic have a lower contact angle, and that's the wing mirror.

Last is the roof of the FJ, it also has the NV trio on it, about 2 months old now. It hasn't been washed for a few weeks, and it sits out in the elements, and gets a coating of dew every night at the moment. I think it's holding up fine.

Just pulled in from driving in the rain, snapped a pic. TWHS WET WAX applied yesterday as a "booster"

After washing it yesterday and topping up the NV twins with Boost V2, well of course it rained overnight.
