P & S PROFESSIONAL DETAIL PRODUCTS - Bead Maker - Paint Protectant & Sealant, Easy Spray & Wipe Application, Cured Protection, Long Lasting Gloss Enhancement, Hydrophobic Finish, Great Scent (1 Pint)

When my go-to detail spray suddenly disappeared from production, I went on the hunt for something new. The reviews of this product on YouTube are what drew me to Beadmaker. However, my honest review: this is a great product! It goes on easy, and gives a great shine that gets even better after a day or two. Water does seem to bead-up very well. I am very impressed with how it brought out the depth of my paint! I will buy again, probably in the gallon-size. Beadmaker definitely has a place in my car-delailing arsenal. There are two things that I don’t care for, however, both personal impressions: The price puts this is a different category for me, because I can’t really use this as liberally as I used to use the cheap stuff from West Coast Customs. While it works as a detailing spray, it’s cost kinda limits how often you can use it for that purpose. Secondly, and along the same lines: if you use in on a panel in less than ideal conditions, like happens at a car show (hot, sunny parking lot), you can get streaks that are a bit more difficult to remove. I can definitely see how these issues are from me using the product a bit differently than it was intended. Just something to keep in mind if you expect to use it that way. All-in-all, I love what Beadmaker brought to my car’s appearance! It has earned that additional step in between waxing and detailing. It’s use is more like an after-wash glosser, not on the show field unless you can find a shady spot. While it is worth the extra time/effort, I am probably still in the market for something cheaper and less forgiving for final car show prep.

Excellent product! Looks mirrored & wet , one of the best shiny finishes I’ve ever seen. So easy to use!

I used P&S Bead Maker on a newer vehicle with clear coat and paint protection film. I had been using another product, but wanted something that would deliver a deeper, richer shine to complement my deep blue metallic paint. After washing the SUV, I applied Bead Maker as a drying aid using a quality microfiber towel. The results were impressive—it brought back a deep, reflective finish similar to when the vehicle was freshly clear coated. I let the vehicle sit in the garage to cure, and even the next day the difference was noticeable. In the garage lighting and out on the road, the shine and depth really stood out. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the results and the ease of application. The only minor downside was that it left a slight haze on the windows, which required a quick follow-up with glass cleaner. On painted surfaces, however, it performed exceptionally well.

Bead maker is a wonderful product. After I use it my car is shiny, slick and beads water like crazy. It's a super simple product that applies easily and wipes off just the same. You can use it by itself after a wash and dry, as a drying aid or as a spot product for small detailing spots. The one thing I will say is the longevity of this product is not high.. I've tried using it all 3 ways I've said and I have never seen it last more than 2 weeks max. You may still see some beading but the slickness and Gloss are mostly gone for me at that point. I wash my car weekly and apply some kind of protection every time so it's not a big deal. If you wash your car like a normal person lol and apply product here and there this is not the best long term solution for you but a great product for what it is.

Pros: - Exceptionally easy to use. No streaking whatsoever. Fun to apply. - Smells great. - Leaves a fantastic gloss. - Great hydrophobic properties. Cons: - Doesn't exactly offer protection and would not rely on it at all for that purpose. - Not designed to last long. After it rains once, it's pretty much all gone. In my experience, it lasts about two weeks. - Dust/pollen magnet. All hydrophobic products will cause water beading with a propensity to leave behind dust, but Bead Maker seems to be especially annoying in this regard.

I was looking for enhanced gloss on our already near showroom perfect Victory Red '07 Corvette C6 convertible. Admittably this is an older car, but it's had exceptional care and only very limited use, so I wasn't really expecting much. But this stuff delivers at a whole new level and I now use it on our Lexus as well. The shine is obvious, the resulting smooth finish has to be experienced to be fully appreciated. Both vehicles are garaged separately and it's been quite awhile since the Vett has felt any form of water. But the Lexus gets driven and even though rain has been rare it does occasionally make a trip through a touchless carwash - the rinse water slides right off leaving nothing but shine behind. But more importantly in my opinion, dust doesn't seem to stick as well either. We retired to a small lakeside city surrounded by quite a bit of farm country and airborne dust can be an issue in the spring and fall, frankly anytime. But for all its good points, Bead Maker comes with this caveat, 'apply to a well prepared finish '. Don't expect miracles unless or until you have cleaned, clayed (if necessary) and polished your car. This is not an expensive product, but it would be wasted on a neglected finish. Since ordering my pint bottle I've since ordered a gallon of the stuff. The gallon remains unopened because the results seem to last and last. Great product, American made, outstanding customer service, you cannot be disappointed.

Great product. Probably over sprayed since ive never used it before. Smells nice and after the 8 hour wait it suggests, water runs right off. Easy to use, easy to wipe off. Seems to work on the windows too.

Bought this on the recommendation of my car detailer. Puts a protective shine on the car that allows road dirt to be washed off with a quick rinse from the hose.

Super um sein auto zu versiegeln selbst nach über 2 Wochen perlt noch alles Super ab.

Produit appliqué sur la voiture en environ 45mn, très bon résultat, tres bonne brillance, à voir la longévité car l'auto n'a pas encore reçu la pluie en ~1 mois. Le bidon je pense fait 4/5 voitures berlines

El brillo que deja es increíble, huele bastante bien y es muy fácil de aplicar.

Ottimo prodotto

Product works better than I was expecting, easy to apply very slick shine Great for a topper for any vehicle
