Looks like I will have to give this product a try.
Sorry, FNG here... Pearl? I'm assuming you don't mean CarPro PERL in this context...?

I washed the car and applied beadmaker to the paint and I swear beadmaker attracts pollen! My car has the most pollen on it out of the cars I've seen and it is not flying off like others. This is it only being out of the garage for 2 hours. I guess the pollen particles want to see what all the fuss over beadmaker is about. lol

No pictures but rained lightly all day. Beadmaker doing good at almost the 1 month mark. Did I mention no washes or topped with anything. Going to wash sometime this week and top with either beadmaker or my elixir I’m trying.

P&S has a soap called Pearl and at $20 a gallon it's a hell of a bargain. I've only used it in my IK Foam 9 and it works great. I put in 2 ounces of Pearl and top off with 1.3 gallons of water, I've gotta also try it in the 2BM wash at some point

ONR capful on the 32 oz. or gallon bottle is 1/2 oz. per Ivan La Croix. If you have an 8 oz. bottle it is 1/4 oz.

Think it says that on the AG page for the product as well. Spot on though.

One has SiO2, one has other polymers. I don’t see anything bad coming from mixing. Reload streaks for some people, mixing with BM might squash that issue.
Thanks acuRAS82. Been using Reload for quite a while and really like it. Never had any issues with streaking though. I thought Reload was slick so BM sounds very interesting.:xyxthumbs:

Glad you haven’t had any issues with the current version of Reload alone; some seem to, some seem not to. Probably depends on paint, climate, etc.
I think mixing two different products like this could lead to strengths from both, worst case weaknesses from both, or most realistically, somewhere inbetween. Whatever the result is, it’s definitely worth a shot in case you find it to be something special.
Do you meen if you mix it in the way of apply it on the panel with each other or are you thinking of mixing the liquids?
Don't see a real benefit with to mix the products into one liquid. Sure it can work and give you good results. But don't do it on a bigger surface if you do. As it's unknown how they reacts and works with each other. There are some that has tried to do a mix of BSD and BM with different outcomes. But then it's was cause of the little non slick feeling from the BSD on it's own they do this. So if you have no problems with Reload in your case when you apply it. I would go with apply them on their own and layer them to see if you getting a slicker finish than Reload in your case. So apply the Reload and then wait some time and apply BM on top of it. Is what I would test first.

Thanks for your support! To answer your questions... For some, including myself, slickness (or slippery feel) is very important, as there is an awesome satisfaction when you're done detailing your car and you run your fingers on the paint, or the backside of your hand. That in turn also helps with water sheeting which is always a plus in my books. Call me crazy, but I know many who just love a slick feeling paint. I can just stand there in my garage looking at a car I just finished detailing for 10-15 minutes.
And for the emotions... I have an outgoing personality. That's just who I am. Some are more reserved, or laid back, I'm outgoing, happy, etc. I like to think I transmit my passion for detailing to my viewers. If I can light a spark in people for that craft, I have done my job.
Pan,
I'm sure you don't have to hear it from me... But please continue to be who you are.... and you are awesome my friend ! keep sharing any knowledge or information you can provide and everyone who is watching your videos or reading your posts are adults and they can judge for themselves and have their own opinion.
I bought a small bottle of Beadmaker to try out and before i even finish the bottle i bought a gallon and i really like the product.... Until something better comes along
