Nice beading.

Would it be an idea for thebenefit of others that those that post pics of the beading they could could also post what products etc. were used?
I for one am always curious about products used.

Got some stuff from detailing shed in January, only got around using them last week.
Clay bar
Bilt Hamber Korrosol Fall Out Remover
Collinite 845 one coat.

Will be trying two thin coats next time see if it's better, I think I went a bit too thick this time around.

13 year old paint, never polished judging by the swirls. Very happy with the results.

Finally stopped raining.. One month since colinite 845 applied.. Last washed last Saturday using Bilt Hamber auto wash..

Crap photo but not bad for a fabric roof, cleaned and treated with Autoglyms kit, the sealant worked well but the cleaning left a bit to be desired. At this stage a re-dye is the only solution to get it perfect. Anyway some not so prefectly round beads but beads nonetheless.

New coating of Pentawax just on the car

Subaru Estate up the road from us nearly as bad.. Been parked under a tree for few months... What year is that car? All that dirt is probably keeping the paint perfect underneath

Bearded guy with long hair and a certain glow around him?

Ahhh Im only taking the Mick!!

Have you considered spacers on the front? Think I'll go with 5mm ones on mine, as I put a Eibach Pro Kit into mine and the fronts are looking a little lost...cant help but think yours would look well with them too, or a little more! Ive 235s on my fronts, are you the same or got 225s?

Spacers is my next plan, I quite like the tucked in look at the front, it's running 245's at the moment if I remember right. The rear could probably do with 15-20mm to get them to the arch but I must lower the rear first the rears are running a slight stretch on 255 instead of the stock 275.
