Okay folks, the looks results really are down to what people who were there on the day and saw the cars in the flesh thought as you cannot really capture any differences (arguably there weren't any!) in a picture... However, beading and sheeting you can so its here I would like people to vote and have their say on what they prefer!!

Now, a note to those who attended the wax test, the beading and sheeting videos which follow are different to the ones you saw on the day, as a dirty microfibre towel used on a couple of the cars was traced to leaving smearing on the bonnet just before the water tests, which will have adversely affected the water test results (but not the looks results, as the cars were wiped down in prep for the water test). So I have redone all of the videos again after giving the bonnets a wipe down with deionised water and a clean microfibre towel, which cured the beading and sheeting nicely For fun, a fourth layer of each LSP was added before this water test as well.

On viewing the videos and pictures below, please can you indicate which you prefer in order... try to avoid bias here please folks, have your say and judge fairly

Nice shots!

The Raceglaze 55 looks to have the most consistent tight beading from the pics, with the 915 a close second.

Will you be keeping track of durability Dave?

For a sec I was like..."why did he put marbles on the paint? Its got to be some trick of his..."

My next response was this:

Thanks for posting this Dave! Look how tight those beads are on the Collinite...

[detaildoc]

Awesome Dave! The sheeting of Royale was super fast.

After seeing the results and how people voted for these waxes, I appreciate my Collinite 915 even more. Shows that prep really is key to a great finish and that a 25 dollar wax will not look much different than a 7500 dollar one. Thank you Dave for posting the results and many nice pictures as well.

So here is a load question: What determines whether a tight bead is what is best? Is there a standard? I like perky beads vs. the large flat ones.

Cheers,
GREG
