Pinnacle XMT 360 AIO issue?

[Ryan509]

So 2 weeks ago on a warm (not hot) day i decided to throw some XMT 360 on my car. so of course i washed/clayed/applied AIO. I still had some residue so i wiped it off as needed with a microfiber. Tonight i go to wash my car after having a rough day at work and figured washing it would cheer me up, turns out i was wrong. There was practically no bead. It wouldn't bead for about 30-40 seconds and just stay in a sheet. With that beind said the car is still smooth and it feels like somthing is there but i'm not visually seeing it. Could i have done somthing wrong when applying it? Does XMT 360 sheet, not bead? I did a buddys car with it this past weekend and if i did somthing wrong i will have to re-do it properly.

Any input?

Having a finish that sheets effectively would be awesome.

Just used this on my wifes car. It beads really good. One thing for me was I had to change out the pads more often. Even after a solid wash this product does an awesome job of cleaning the paint. I seem to use more product "than normal" say compared to a polish or even applying a sealant.

Agree. The vehicle I use it the most on is an 08 black Tahoe that is garaged. While I do get beading for a few months afterwards, the one consistent performance factor I get each time is a nice, clean surface. Yes, it has fillers but the paint is consistant and is primed for an lsp if desired.

I also use 360 on a cirrus aircraft twice a year and that is where the cleaning power really shows. Maybe when I quit being a tech moron I will post pics.

360 - good stuff, great smell, top value
