I am always trying new waxes, it is one of my obsessions to try to see what beads the best, looks the best, is easiest to use, etc. So when we finally got the 3D Carnauba Paste Wax at Autopia I had to try it out. I took the can of wax home and used it on my moms car since there was no beading left on her car.
Before pictures, car is clean after a quick wash and IPA wipe down:

The wax was very easy to apply, I let it dry for about 5-10 minutes and it wiped off pretty easy as well.
After I wiped the wax off, it started getting really dark outside so I couldn`t really get a good quality after picture, but it did create a more deep, wet look like a carnauba wax should. You can actually see the moon reflection on the hood:

Next day, water beading pictures:

The water rolls right off:

All in all, it is another great product from 3D, the water rolls right off of the wax, it was pretty easy to apply, and has a deep, wet look to it. :bigups
I am keeping an eye on the longevity of the 3D Carnauba Paste Wax and I will keep you guys updated.
