Car pro Exlir or P&S beadmaker. Is one better than the other?

Re: Car pro Exlir or P&S beadmaker. Is one better than the other?

Thanks for the push everyone, even added some Gyeon Tire Express!

Spray sealant or not, it’s place in the arsenal of a detailer remains solidly in the “drying aid”/“quick detailer” category...
Sticklers [whom] challenge the product should be used as advertised are missing a trick.

Convenient when a reputable YouTube detailer shares your sentiment...

I think Sandro nailed it. Great drying aid or quick detailer. Has excellent ease of use, good lubrication, very slick..............but lacks in paint saturation/richening, hydrophobicity and durabilty.

I was listening to his video on my headphones while I was washing my car and all I could think was “what the heck does he mean it doesn’t bead water”?

Of all the reviews I’ve seen I’ve yet to see another 1 besides mine that gives it an uninterrupted shot at a real review. I think Wilson Auto Detailing might’ve, but he didn’t do much talking so I skipped most of his video during my wash... But the whole using it as a topper and expecting to provide an actual review of the product results in a horrible review IMO.

You can’t take everything literally. Bead maker does not give the most prolific beads. No doubt. Considering it’s called BEAD MAKER, it should not fall short in that category, which it does. He didn’t just review it as a topper. You may want to WATCH his video before commenting.

Catching up on this thread and something is bothering me, that the point of a Quick Detailer is to remove dust. I might use one for very light dust, I guess maybe, but I thought most QDs were intended to remove smudges from paint not particles. Opinions?

Thanks for wasting 30min. of my time, dude... Like I said, he did a poor job of reviewing it, and yes I watched the entire video just now.

He says he’s used and applied it on numerous vehicles.
He shows himself applying it to numerous vehicles.
He applies it over a coating.
Applies it standalone and compares it to other spray sealants.

...But not once does he show or talk about his experience with repeated applications allowing it to build layers and achieving its true potential and discovering water behavior that’s deserving of way more credit than he gave it.

He speaks as if his only experience is having applied it once to every vehicle and basing his opinion on the results of those single applications, but little does he know that he’s missing the boat.

I listened to you and sat through a 30min. video. Now I invite you to check out my review of Beadmaker to find out how to properly use it and experience its true potential. Spoiler: You won’t be able to get a true gauge after applying it once on your vehicle or 100 times on 100 different vehicles either.

Beadmaker shouldn’t be used as a Quik Detailer aka a product for safely removing light dust... I wasn’t even going to say anything about him saying that, but he’s completely wrong comparing it and even going as far as calling it a Quik Detailer.
 
I'm watching from the sidelines right now but holding up a sign:

Beadmaker isn't the correct name for the product, I'm pretty sure everyone who's used it agrees to this

Beadmaker makes the paint glossy and slick

This product doesn't last that long

If you know what it is and what to and not to expect it's a GREAT product

What Klasse said. "Bead Maker" is not even the objective of using the product.
 
I tried and used that when it came out, it was never as slick and glossy as Beadmaker....IMO.

But it had a lot of user satisfaction applying it & it smelled really good. Basically it was like orange water. Look - no streaks!

I feel like, in his defense, I don’t think I’ve ever seen anywhere where P&S talks about it achieving its maximum potential after repeated applications. I’ve watched the OG videos and rag company videos where they talk about the product, and I either missed it or they’ve never talked about that at all.

When I started that video I was hoping that he was going to do a few repeat applications, because of your updated review and how it seemed to react positively to repeated applications.

I think from a shop environment perspective, his review was really sound. I doubt he’s going to be seeing cars weekly so he can reapply beadmaker to keep it working its best/achieve its full potential to begin with, so his review really just reflects the way he’d realistically be using the product.

Then again, Wilson auto detailing has that beadmaker and HCW test going and five weeks in they’re both behaving better than what I saw in Sandro’s video.

I do wish he’d applied it a few times to the same panel, it really was the only thing missing from his review, imo.

That's where the comparison ends though. P&S crushes anything from Chemical Guys, not even close

Your review was top notch Eldo, it’s the sort of content that separates a regular forum from an excellent forum. It creates interesting discussion and tests a specific use case relevant to the enthusiast niche.

Whilst I’ve had similar results to you with regard to consistent-use performance on a single vehicle, I agree completely with Sandro’s summary which comes more from a professional detailing perspective.

One thing I did find strange was the completely lack-lustre results he had on his test panels. They weren’t consistent with results either of us have had.

Mixed opinions and results aside, what is evident is that P&S absolutely butchered the branding and product positioning. Had it been done correctly, it may not’ve seen the large initial boost of sales but it would result in more consistent long-term sales where currently there is a risk of it falling off the face of the earth. Time will tell.

Calling it Slickmaster and touting light protection abilities is all they had to do to be honest and gain genuine favour.

This is an excellent post.

I could not have worded it better if I tried.

Great product, but may be misleading in title.

Thank you man.

I think it’s somewhat funny how I seem to be the only 1 leading the way as far as vouching for Beadmakers beading ability...

I can’t seem to get the results from the Optimum Car Wash, but when it comes to Beadmakers beads I get them great! Lol
