    That is cool. Could you feel ridges if you ran you hand across the surface?

    Re: Beading Pics Thread

    Trashmanssd`s ice photo reminded me of a few photos I took last year of my (previous) DD after applying BF Crystal Seal:

    Trunk:


    Hood:


    Looking down the drivers side:


    It was neat to see how dramatically different the same frost formed on the car.

    csl topped with exo
    (for the record this was as result of the hose rinse before the rw in garage, but car was most likely 90% clean from just the hose rinse alone)

    I was doing some yard work when I noticed the beading on a bush in my back yard. I was really impressed with how hydrophobic the leaves were.

    This is on my DD that`s absolutely filthy from it raining and all the mud on the roads from construction. Only thing it had on it is the ultima acrylic spray wax I put on months ago. This poor car is so abused. Hah.

    Yeah they were very pronounced, you could feel and see the ridges in person like groves in a record.

    Wait a minute! Isn`t it winter up there? I would think all of Canada is a post-apocalyptic waste land in late January.

    Re: Beading Pics Thread

    admittedly the car has been daily driven all week and last washed six days ago on Sunday actually

    it was a little dirty on the lower portions and just a little dusty on sides/top

    i only drove it today because i knew it was gonna rain and i wanted sky bead shots


    cosmic v2+spritz+flake+high gloss


    right behind that door...csl+exov3


    further back on that quarter is csl+exov2


    trunk lid is (from your left) csl+exov2
    your right half is csl+exov3

    notice the difference?





    pretty obvious in person

    three great coating combos

    two with a ridiculous distaste for h20, lol

    zero visible difference in full sun

    pa diver beads on glass

    A few weeks back, after stripping the LSP from the roof of this car, I wrote this word using Natty`s Blue.
