have you ever seen water bead like this?

[WickedLou9]

I applied P21S ( 100% Carnauba) about a month ago. Car is garage kept at night. I have not done much since then other than a couple of quick wipe downs with eagle 1 Wipe&Shine ( A waterless wash kind of thing). It was raining the other day, just a light mist really, and when I came out to the car I saw this.

Nothing like a nice beading shot.

@OP...A Catch-22 (?):

-Many vehicle owners have come to equate water-beads/beading as a "good thing";
when, in fact, after the water beads have dried/evaporated, they leave behind all of their
contaminates---including acids...as unsightly water spots that can stain/etch,
and/or otherwise damage the paint---sometimes permanantly.

Sure, nice photo-op...
But...IMHO...get those water-beads off the vehicle as fast as possible!!

The good thing about a good slick coat of wax... pretty much as soon as I start driving most of it was gone. In fact just sitting in the car was enough of a bump to cause alot of the water to start pooling together and running off the car... over the gutter.. and onto my seat. Oh what fun.

There's water beading and then there's water beading. Don't think I've EVER seen water bead like the pic that yakky posted. Yikes!!

Yeah, it looks like it was misted on the paint rather then rain. Maybe morning dew, dunno.

I read this response and I didn't even need to check and see who posted it. No offense intended.

Nice beading. Nothing is like driving a vehicle in the rain and watching the water cascade off.
