Bead hero vs PA Cosmic vs Nova Jet vs OverCoat

[Gridlink]

Will be looking forward to hearing about aht on this side of the pond...they LOVE that stuff 'over there'.



Jet for me was kinda schizophrenic...at times it was just incredible, especially on black paint. Other times it was 'meh'. Very inconsistent.

I'm not sure how this forum is about reviewing products not sold through their store but there is another forum a lot of us are on where I could.

Initial impressions just based on application are good though. Super easy wipe on wipe off that instantly felt very slick. I'm not due for any rain for at least a week so water behavior impressions will have to wait.

Usually posting other products is a no no in it’s own thread. Ok in threads not deadicated to it.

But just as I posted this one seems they don’t care or have loosened restrictions.

Has anyone tried Carpro HydrO2 lite?

Tried it on my polished wheels and man they bead like crazy and the gloss is fantastic

Just my 2 cents.

2month update. Seen a lot of rain and sunshine. Sits outside at work and garaged at night

Polish Angel CS (remember this is 3+ year old product)

Dr. Beasley’s Bead Hero

Kami OCv5

Nova Jet

View attachment 88959

All still there and performing well. My rankings based off of performance.

Kami still has best shaped beads an runs of paint faster.

2nd bead hero. Beads look better on Jet but Bead here runs off better.

3rd is the almost 4 year old Cosmic. Again better water run off.

4th Is Jet. Although a good beader takes longest to clear the hood.

If the PA was fresh I feel it would be in first or second based of off some fresh Gold Zirkon I’ve been testing.

PA says Cosmic spritz hood for 2 years after opened but this is almost 4 opened.

In comparison though I have some Kami OC v1 gifted to me by [mention]budgetplan1 [/mention]that he estimated 5-6 years old that still works like a champ. Application still sucks though…

Hi coatings out of the 2 Nv's spray sealants which one do you like using the most? I'm on the hunt for a new spray sealant. Rapidwaxx is starting to get low.

Truck just got a wipedown with cosmic today after a rinseless.had to get rid of all the pollen buildup. Got rain coming in tomorrow night...hense the reason i cleaned the truck...so i could checkout some cosmic water behavior. It honestly has not actually rained yet since i got cosmic, stoked to see how it all reacts. Lol( i know sounds dumb)

I haven’t used Lustre yet but based on reviews and Jet performance I would go with Lustre. Performance rated the same by a lot and supposedly looks better.

I have both, I've had Lustre for quite a while, and Jet a few months. What I didn't realise till last weekend, when I was researching what to put on the roof of the FJ, which I just polished with Essence, is that you can layer Jet on top of Lustre, it's on the NV US website. I thought why not. Both applied very easily, but it was a very smooth surface. No update on anything yet, it's barely been a week.
