Baker21's Superb........beading Baby!!!

Baker21 · 03-03-2008, 14:35

Slighty boring for some people I guess and maybe I need to get out more but as I didn't have a car booked in this weekend to 'Detail' I gave the Superb another going over with the UDM and then applied a coat of Collinite 845.

This lunchtime I have just applied an extra coat of P21s Concours Wax and would you believe it, it's just rained here so I have taken some beading pics that I thought I would share with you guys:

Like I said, might be a little boring but thought some of the pics looked pretty cool........

Comments good or bad welcome if anyone wants to comment.......

So I'm not the only one who gets satisfaction from rain water beading on paint work!!!

That makes me want to detail the Leon now.
Good work fella!

I like the last picture, that is some impressive beading.

Makes me want to go and wax my car (unless you want to do it

)

The Collinite should still be giving beading like that in a few months time - good choice

Yeah love the stuff but thought I would just try and mix it up a little with some P21s on top of the Collinite..............reckon I will give the Jetseal 109 a go when it arrives........

tdirob · 03-03-2008, 16:00

do you see any benefit using the P21s on top of the collinite? I just used 2 layers of collinite 476 last time I waxed my car but was thinking of trying something different next month when it gets a proper clean.

I have used the Collinite on my car many times but never put another wax on top of it so I thought I would see what the combinattion is like...............used the P21s on customer's cars a few times and I have been happy with how easy it is to work with.........should give pretty good protection and I guess more coats of wax the better.........

You've got a lot to answer for Baker21!!

Just spent 2 hours washing with Megs NXT, clay bar with Megs Quick Clay & then waxing with Collinte No 476S.
My arm aches now!!
