Slighty boring for some people I guess and maybe I need to get out more but as I didn't have a car booked in this weekend to 'Detail' I gave the Superb another going over with the UDM and then applied a coat of Collinite 845.

This lunchtime I have just applied an extra coat of P21s Concours Wax and would you believe it, it's just rained here so I have taken some beading pics that I thought I would share with you guys:

Like I said, might be a little boring but thought some of the pics looked pretty cool........

Comments good or bad welcome if anyone wants to comment.......

It looks awful do it again:P

Note to self............must try harder...........

So I'm not the only one who gets satisfaction from rain water beading on paint work!!!

That makes me want to detail the Leon now.

Good work fella!

Ofcourse not mate...........even my girlfriend loves it as well.............

Looking forward to this week's detail already and I have 6 days left to go.........:(

I like the last picture, that is some impressive beading.

Makes me want to go and wax my car (unless you want to do it:P)

Thanks mate and ofcourse I will wax your car...........for a price.........

The Collinite should still be giving beading like that in a few months time - good choice

Yeah love the stuff but thought I would just try and mix it up a little with some P21s on top of the Collinite..............reckon I will give the Jetseal 109 a go when it arrives........

do you see any benefit using the P21s on top of the collinite? I just used 2 layers of collinite 476 last time I waxed my car but was thinking of trying something different next month when it gets a proper clean.

I have used the Collinite on my car many times but never put another wax on top of it so I thought I would see what the combinattion is like...............used the P21s on customer's cars a few times and I have been happy with how easy it is to work with.........should give pretty good protection and I guess more coats of wax the better.........

You've got a lot to answer for Baker21!!

Just spent 2 hours washing with Megs NXT, clay bar with Megs Quick Clay & then waxing with Collinte No 476S.

My arm aches now!!

I am glad I read this thread, as the title made me think Mr Baker had got some beaded seat covers.

Looking great as usual tho mate!

Did he say wax? :rofl:

Nice job mate as usual.

Wish i was closer to you my car looks 10 years old now and its only an 06:(

Looks cracking, as ever Mr Baker

I put some Victoria Concourse over my two coats of 476 and I'm still really pleased with it.

Think I'll stick with this method from now on - two coats of tough 476 for protection and durability, and in addition something a bit less durable on top, but with a higher carnuba content that will add some depth and gloss.

Make a day of it mate and come and explore Oxfordshire, would have your car turned around in a day..........

Sounds like a winner..........I am thinking of buying some 476 for customer's cars but just need to use up what I already have in stock, so to speak........assume that 476 works well on dark colours then?

Oooh, looking forward to my detail - hoping for similar results Sir Baker

Good work

Ofcourse mate, yours will more than likely be a lot better.............

Where's the pics of the Octy? Haven't seen any?
