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.

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.

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.

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

If you're a UK based detailer, you may be familiar with Done & Dusted. The way the product wipes on/off and the slick appearance you get right after, reminds me of that Bouncers product. So I'd argue there's no spray sealant/QD that will apply any easier or look better; it's highly reflective, slick to the touch, and the smell is not offensive. I've applied it this summer in Texas, in 105f heat, outside, with no issues. I sprayed a couple of times per panel, sprayed my MF towel, quickly distributed the product, they buffed with a clean towel. The manufacturer says it can be layered a few times, but you should avoid using it weekly. When I was originally testing it, I found a single application only lasted a couple of washes before it majority of it was no longer protecting the car. The preference, therefore -- if you only intend to use this product to protect your vehicle -- is to apply it twice in close succession (a week), then alternate between this and a quick detailer/gloss enhancer (such a Dream Maker, Chemical Guys Speed Wipe, etc) each wash. For me, I actually used it over FK1000P on a white car. Annoyingly, I found FK1000P to give better depth/gloss than this after it cured, so I don't think I'd go with that combination next time (but it's nearly winter, and I'm committed now). Be that to say, don't assume this will wipe the floor on appearance with every paste sealant/wax, because it wont -- sprays; yes, paste/liquids; absolutely not. All in all, it's a great short-term sealant, that offers the best appearance available out of a spray bottle. Don't overuse it! And for second/tertiary applications take it easy (2, 3 sprays per panel is all you need). I'll be buying it again and probably using it exclusively in the summer months. For the winter, I need something I can set and forget (FK/Collinite/Ceramic, etc). Give it a go! It's cheap! Nothing to lose :)

Great product and easy to use.

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
