Booth11 Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 Needs a good wash but beading not too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booth11 Posted October 20, 2022 Report Share Posted October 20, 2022 As usual, after a wash comes the rain, but that means beading galore! Beady goodness on Gyeon Wax. Martin2, JonnyG and Wagon R 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, after my posts earlier this week we are into a week of thunderstorm's and big hail. The rain is disappointment * in that it compromises the clean car, but the beading is strangely really satisfying!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the hail isn’t too big and not a rush to the car. Hail much less common here, but, you can pretty much expect rain as soon as you’ve cleaned the car but some lovely beading is the upside, assuming the car has some good hydrophobic protection on it. Flat beads don’t count! 😁 It’s still pouring here today (had thunder this morning) but I shouldn’t moan as the more rain we get, the better for an end to the hosepipe ban, although I think that’ll run into 2023. 😢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind it raining just after a wash and clean, but hate having to drive it on wet roads with all the spray that undoes all your good work in a few minutes 🥲😧 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got over 100mm plus storms and hail on Sunday.

Car was waxed mid October with Gyeon Wax which is holding up really well still, but on Sunday I topped it up with a coat of Gyeon WetCoat after washing the car, so nicely refreshed and gives some lovely micro beading.
