Pictures of Collinite 476S Water Beading

Alright, I waxed my Acura 2 weeks ago, and I've decided that I will take a picture of the water beading every 2 weeks after I wash it. Here's the first few pictures:











I'll post other pictures every 2 weeks. Personally, I'm very crazy about beading, so I think that I have just found my favorite wax! The Acura is driven 5-10 miles each day, non-garaged, and not excessively dirty after every 2 weeks. I love Collinite!
 
Gotta love the super tight beading of Collinite. I'm at nearly 4 months on a non-garaged daily driver and it still feels smooth and beads well. Collinite products really do look as good as some of the boutique waxes(I prefer 845 over S100 any day), but last soooo much longer. I will continue to use it on customers cars(and on mine in the winter) because the customers must think "Wow, I must have a really good wax job" because of the beading. Glad to see another Collinite lover.
 
If you like beads and ever need a refresher spray, try DG Aquawax. The beading is just incredible:

476's beading is about the same to 845. All very nice :) The 476, however, lasts 5-7 months, while the 845 lasts 4-6 months.
 
Love the beading and Collinite as well. Here are some shot of 467s/885 on my 2005 Accord:

A comparison of beading between 467s and Mother's Reflections on the hood of a 2002 E-Class:

sumptinwong, NICE pictures!! They're truly beautiful. Especially like the comparison picture between the Mothers Reflections and the Collinite. Collinite=Tight beads!
 
I've topped 845 with Aquawax and I actually found that the AW sorta muted out the uber-tight Collinite beads :nixweiss They do, however, complement each other very nicely, with the Collinite giving the warmth/depth and the AW providing the wetness and clarity.
