This ceramic coating also works great on the inside glass - including the inside of the windshield for streak-free and glare-free perfect clarity. The finishing touch for any detail job -Mike Phillips
I don’t have the luxury to let this product cure after a wash. My garage is a small one-car garage, will this product cure properly outside in the sun in this hot summer heat?
@@xsoleprophetx I have this same question, mine is daily driver and my garage is set up as a shop so no parking, but I can go down to the local self-wash and do it under canopy but do not want to sit there for 2 or 3 hours lol. after I would dry and apply product, I typically finish my detail and am on the road withing 45 min. would this be enough time?
Thank for the kind words, Pan! We'll just have to wait for the 2024 Detailing Product Awards to see how Bead Hero does If anyone has any questions about Bead Hero or any other Dr. Beasley's-related topics, drop 'em below and we'll answer. You might even get a response from the 🐐Mike Phillips himself!
@@decker0373 Of course we do! People apply products like our Formula 1201 and Nano LS-10 outside in less-than-ideal conditions all the time. We've seen people apply Bead Hero outside and have great results as well. We don't necessarily recommend it, but that doesn't mean you can't!
They recommend you do a quick drying of your car with a blower, or with a drying towel, and then use this as a final quick detailer on "almost dry" paint to remove residual water (as there's always a bit of water left) and boost gloss/slickness if you want the best durability and performance from it.
P&S Brake buster is so OP I have off road tires and I’ve tried so many tire and wheel cleaners. Diablo from chemical guys made the blooming on my tires laugh at me. Adam’s wheel and tire cleaner only got the surface but it was a lot better than chemical guys. The break buster literally got deep into the tires and got all the browning out. Amazing!
Yeah Brake Buster is amazing! Welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam as we surpassed 1 million subscribers and we have over 145 million views! I have been detailing for 27 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers. You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing.
I love the versatility of this product, which is what I look for. Easy to apply, can be used on multiple surfaces, and great hydrophobic properties. This will be a great topper for my ceramic coating, going into the winter months.
Pan, Superb video as always. I currently use the Bead maker Dream maker mix as my topper. Definitely outstanding. I decided to give Bead Hero a try. So today, after the detail wash and bigboi dry, I topped it with Bead Hero. Super easy to use just like Bead maker mix. It’s still curing but it’s looking great. I’m going to give Bead Hero the edge so far. The gloss, pop, and shine are noticeably ‘richer’. I’m thinking it will look even better after it cures overnight. Thanks again for what you do. All the best, Chris, Tampa, FL
It's kid of frustrating that so many chemicals need a garage or shade, where I live, i have neither. I'd love it if the chemists made products that can be used year round and in all elements.
I finally got to use this today & must say, it’s truly is pretty amazing! Lol. My paint is black with flakes in it & its leaves a great shine/gloss finish along with being very slick. Will be my go to.
Thanks for a great explanation on both the benefits and drawbacks backs of water beading. We all know water beading looks cool, but if there’s minerals (hard water spots), or chemical contamination in the water, (common) then water beading can lead to Type II Water Spots. The chemistry behind this spray-on SiO2 ceramic coating is more focused on enabling the water to flee the surface to help avoid water spots. Excellent presentation Pan, you did a stellar job of explaining the benefits and features for this product plus sharing how fast and easy it is to use. 👌 -Mike Phillips
Have had this a few months here in the UK after watching the apex video that Brian did, on that video it was put across that you had to apply the product heavy and most of the comments on that video were people who were put off the product by the amount you had to apply but I bought some anyway and i have to say I love it, good to see you show that you don't need to use half a bottle
Yeah I spoke with the team at Dr Beasley's and it was a new product at the time of Brian's video, and they realized that a heavy application wasn't the way to go. Potential streaking and wasting product. So now they have readjusted and less is more. I used way less than one ounce of product, and just one or two light mists for small panels, and 2-3 mists for larger panels like the hood is all you need. Wipes on easy, buffs off easy. :)
See the Dr Beasley's comments on durability in the comments section. This isn't needed after each regular weekly washes. Once a month perhaps or as needed.
Thats my problem, i used it for the first time after I waxed my truck and I have re washed it once and wanted to reapply the Bead Hero but didn't feel it needed it. So i was looking at how many washes before I probably needed to reapply. :) @@directorofsuccess
@@mlj257 It's up to you! IF you use wax as protection, I'd think you would want to re-aply Bead Hero every 4-6 weeks? but again, mileage, garage or outdoor storage, etc can all change that.
Seems like a great product! Couple of questions. Is it “stackable”? As in if continued use, does it adds layers of protection? Also, if I was to use this product & then my topper (Extreme Solutions Topper) would that diminish ether product? I’m assuming it would not, but figured I would ask.
Wondering this also. Since it lasts so long are we using Bead Hero after every wash? Or maybe just once in awhile and then using Topper on our regular washes?
@@realdopewater Exactly. Maybe just use the topper as a “maintenance” over the Bead Hero. Would be expensive to use it after every wash (depending of course). But I’m definitely curious! Lol
This is a spray protection you can use on any existing ceramic or graphene coating yes. It will help reduce the chances of getting water spots as it helps sheet the water at a quicker rate compared to most toppers which mainly focus on water beading. Water beads, when they dry, leave minerals behind, and it's those minerals that create water spots and start etching through the clear coat. So the quicker the paint sheds (sheets) water, the less water stays on the surface and thus you get less chances of water spots. So products like Bead Hero with quick water sheeting really help. Of course, no product alone will help prevent 100% of water spots. You have to use safe wash practices (pH neutral shampoo, work in the shade, use a quick detailer to dry the vehicle when towel drying, etc). And if you have hard water issues where you live perhaps look into getting a simple water deionizer system to filter the water, for a 100% spot-free washing experience. That way you never have to worry about water spots when washing your car.
Pan thank you so much for taking the time to talk to me im so very grateful for that you just don't know. Also is a quick detail spay for dying aid? And after that process, is that when you do that topper? What are good quick detail sprays
Awesome product and of course awesome video as usual, best spray Ceramic to date, however I have not had much luck on polished wheels, doesn't seem to hold up to these German brake pads! On the glass and paint though wow simply great.
I've been using Gyeon wet coat, I've used one or two light mists on the panels, but it leaves a residue behind that has to be buffed out with some quick detailer . I've stopped using it on the panels and just the wheels instead, why is this? I'm following the instructions and watched the video by Yves bit still have issues with residual marks. I might actually look at Dr. beasley's
@PanTheOrganizer Might be worth a shout. It looks like a ceramic coating high spot that has the pattern from being sprayed from the bottle on to the panel. It comes off easily enough bit it's just a bit annoying. I'm nearly at the end of the 1ltr bottle and I've just been using it on the alloy wheels. I fancy a change anyway, I quite fancy trying Yvan and Nick's or this one to be honest. I might just have had a bad batch maybe. Gyeon are usually very good.
@PanTheOrganizer Gyeon have come up trumps with some tips to try if anyone else has an issue with dark spots- Due to the high concentration of SiO2 present in the product, dark spots can be visible on dark paint. There are 2 tips we can give you in such a case: 1. Spray Q2M WetCoat directly in your pressure washer water stream or 2. Use a dedicated soft mitt to spread the product on the paintwork and then rinse off (it will have a great increase in the durability of the product that way).
@@PanTheOrganizer tried this product yesterday. Went on pretty easy. Smell was not pleasant. Smelled like paint to me. Haven’t seen the beads yet since it hasn’t rained. Ty.
Can’t hurt. But ANY product you apply to a rubber interface is going to wear off. Think about it? The rubber blades are DRAGGING against glass over and over and over again - nothing is going to last. Great question though. -Mike Phillips
Thank you for this review, so interested to see how it does on my vehicles. Where is it ideally to store this after use? and does it have a shelf life?
I need more time to test Bead Hero long term, but it’s certainly slicker and hydrophobics are on another level, especially the water sheeting. It’s ine of the best and quickest water shedding products I have tested.
The honest answer is “no” - BUT the huge difference is RE-applying this is fast, SIMPLE and easy. To correctly apply a ceramic glass coating requires the proper steps. Both approaches work - but the lazy man’s approach is more practical for busy people and the average Joe Consumer. Make sense? -Mike Phillips
Products that are versatile (i.e. that can be applied to multiple surfaces) tend to do great on paint, but won't last as long on glass or plastics, compared to coatings specific formulated for those surfaces. So a true glass coating will last longer, but can only be applied on glass.
Pretty good. But keep in mind spray toppers are only icing on the cake. The biggest improvement in measurable gloss units is always by paint correction first. The protection applied afterwards is the icing.
Hi Pan, I'm pleased that you have included a link for your Australian subscribers, that never happens, and I would love to see it all the time. For your info, I opened up the link and the supplier 'Carcareproducts' here in Oz dont have the Beasleys Bead Hero, they only carry the Beasley Matte products which is rather disappointing.
Yeah sourcing these in different countries is complex at the moment. For the links, I usually focus on my most represented countries on my channel: USA, Canada, UK and France. I have a limited amount of words to put in the video description so doing more countries is simply impossible. Also, it takes a lot of time to research and put links. Rarely do people do it for more than one country. I do it for four hehe. I try my best but I’m only human. Thanks for watching!
Hehe no, this is not meant to be applied on tires. This is what I applied on the tires: bit.ly/465j9WU I have never seen a paint coating that you can also apply to tires by the way. Have you?
Paint Hero = Friction Product. It's a drying lubricant. Spray on a towel, then put towel on mostly dry paint to touch up that last drip. Bead Hero = Gloss and Crazy Water Action. Finish with Bead Hero.
I wouldn’t compare both products. CanCoat EVO is a spray coating that has the longest durability and chemical resistance from most sprays out there. But it’s also double the price of the Dr Beasley’s.
As Pan spoke about in the video durability is going to be dependent on several factors, including preparation, maintenance, mileage environment, etc. etc. under ideal circumstances, including preparation with a proper decontamination and paint correction durability is up to one year. However, in most real world circumstances, most real world, people will see durability between several weeks and several months.
I need more time to test Ceramic Gloss, but both are very good. The sheeting on the Dr Beasley's is for sure superior and quicker. For those who want a product that sheds water quickly, the Dr Beasley's is as good as it gets for a spray.
I wouldn't compare both. Bead Maker is just a regular paint sealant that doesn't last that long (3-4 weeks at best). Bead Hero is a ceramic spray coating that will last longer, and for sure has much better hydrophobic properties, especially its ability to quickly sheet water. Where Bead Maker excels is in gloss and slickness, and both are pretty close in that category.
Always remember - how long ANYTHING lasts always comes Down to how you touch the finish. Wash a car with a brick and nothing is going to last long. Wash a ceramic coated car gently, (like you should), and you give any brand of coating the best chance to last long and perform long. -Mike Phillips
@@DrBeasleys this is a summer car (Volkswagen EOS) covered in a heated garage over the winter, washed once or twice a week with a low PH soap, dried with Chamois after (no bricks will touch the car lol) The simplicity of the application of your product makes it quite interesting the durability will be the seller, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months ??????
my daily driver sits outside 24/7 here in Vegas and I wonder how often this can be applied, would you say every 3 to 4 months should be sufficient, also what is the recommended shelf life before product degrades. thanks for all your hard work in bringing us great product reviews and the depth in which you cover them.
Thanks. You can apply this as often as you want. Certainly at least once every other month if you want max gloss and slickness. Detailing chemicals are typically good for 1-2 years if kept in stable condition and never frozen. For coatings in glass bottles, once opened, it’s hard to know exactly how long they can last as the curing starts. Most say 1-2 months.
@@PanTheOrganizer great, thank you, I always wondered the shelf life differences between si02 coatings vs si02 toppers/detail sprays such as this product and why they are different (shelf life that is).
Great presentation as always, I actually watched Bryan‘s from Apex detailing presentation. first, he was showcasing this product with Director himself, and I followed his instructions where Director flooded the test panel with the product so I did the same on my vehicle,and ended up using 1/3 of the bottle right after first use but it looks like I have to knock it down a few notches. Luckily I watched your videos as well. Time to update my application process. Thanks, Pan.
Yeah that APEX video was filmed way before mine, and Dr Beasley's readjusted their own method with the product. My video shows the new correct way of applying, which uses very little product.
I have a question on whether or not its a good idea to start a detailing business from your garage/driveway. I want to start a detailing business and don't know if mobile is the only way that will work.

Another amazing product, thanks again Pan. It's a bit expensive out here in Japan, hoping they get an official retailer here so I can try it one day. Or maybe I'll pick up a bottle next time I'm over in the US on business.
I wouldn't compare them as they are too completely different types of products. CanCoat EVO is a ceramic coating in spray form, as durable as you can get before you step into true coatings in glass bottles. So if you're looking for durability, CanCoat EVO is much better than Bead Hero. Bead Hero is more for maintenance washes, to add a nice boost in gloss and slickness. CanCoat EVO is more a base layer of protection, that will last a long time.
@PanTheOrganizer All things considered, ease of use, sickness, beading capability, gloss and price. I'm a huge Bead Maker fan because it performs great and it's a very good value for what you pay for it.
Durability isn't super important, my car is ceramic coated and is washed 1-2 times per week and it's garage kept. Just like to use a spray detailer after my wash to maintain the coating.
there are many variables (prep, use, maintenance, mileage, etc.) but most real-world people with real-world cars will see durability somewhere between several weeks to several months.
Bead Hero is a ceramic based coating so will last longer and have better hydrophobics. I wouldn’t compare it to Bead Maker which is just a regular paint sealant. Bead Maker only lasts 3-4 weeks so it’s not used for its durability. It’s used for its gloss and slickness. It’s hard to beat in those departments.
Hi pan can you help . I bought a bottle of flex wax by turtle wax and I put minimal product on a micro fibre applicator and it wouldn’t buff of very well it was like I put grease over the car I must admit I’m not very happy with it so far it was very grabby to try and get of can you suggest any tricks to get the best out of it thanks in advance
Hard to troubleshoot at a distance without being there or having more details on how you prepped your vehicle before the application. Also, what conditions you worked in... Try and clean the car, use iron decon, then clay, then machine polishing to perfect the paint, IPA wipe, and then one or two sprays of Flex Wax per panel max is all that's needed. Work in the shade, on a cool surface. If you see streaks while applying, you take another damp towel (damp with just a bit of water) to wipe, and then another clean and dry towel to buff to a streak free shine.
Thanks for your input pan I did all the right things before applying the flex wax apart from machine polish because I haven’t got a polisher I will try it again but if it happens again I won’t use it anymore 👍
There's no real way of testing durability of toppers, as you have a long lasting protection underneath... So how would you know if you're seeing the topper's performance or the base protection's performance? And at one point, there's a limit to overthinking the moment and trying to figure out durability of everything, as durability also varies greatly for many reasons including conditions and weather and mileage. No two cars go through exactly the same conditions. So the best you can do is see what durability claim the brand says for a product, and apply a bit more frequently. For example, if a brand claims 6 months durability for a topper, I would reapply once every 3-4 months to make sure I'm getting optimal performance. Especially for a spray product, it only takes a few minutes to apply.
As usual, another informative video. Good stuff. Question: my SQ8 has professionally applied Carpro CQuartz. Once a year I have my detailer refresh the coating using CarPro Gliss. Would continue with the Gliss or try Bead Hero?
Gliss is a completely different type of product. It’s a true glass bottle top coat with one year durability mainly used to help prevent water spots from the coating underneath. Bead Hero is a maintenance product you would use more often after say a maintenance wash.
Bead Maker and Dream Maker is more of a shirt term quick detailer style to boost gloss and slickness. Bead Hero is a longer term ceramic based protection that has superior hydrophobics and an insane sheeting rate.
Kind regards. I have not been able to find any of your videos on which are the best orbital and rotary polishers according to your experience with them in your detailing. Do you have any videos where you talk about your favorite polishing machines? greetings 👋

Bead Hero can be applied over glass, however it may not be as durable as it would be on paint. A glass specific sealant or coating will last longer on a glass surface, but yes Bead Hero could work too. I made a video on glass showers here: th-cam.com/video/hYVfR_3ssWo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=G3A3WtbP-i5m-j2K

CanCoat EVO is a heavier duty spray coating and will likely last longer. It serves more as a base protection for those who don’t want to apply a fulk blown coating from a glass bottle. Bead Hero is used more as a maintenance topper. Has superior sheeting properties.
Yeah unfortunately that happens often when I release a new video, given the massive size of my audience. Products usually sell out quickly. But I'm sure they will be working hard to restock soon.
I wouldn’t compare those. The TW is more of a long lasting base layer of protection. The Bead Hero is used more regularly as a topper. Not the same thing.

If I can't have one initially, can I use my own car that isn't a van to start off? Have you made any videos on what an ideal beginner mobile detailing kit looks like? Thank you again.
I’m not mobile. But yes you could use your car or what ever vehicle you have available. Many mobile detailers started with their own cars before buying a proper van. Reinvest in your business as you gain more income. Start small, grow bigger with time and profits. Check out the video I linked of the young mobile detailer that makes 130K a year.

I would love to try this, but I have so much Avalon King Armor Sheild Lite left that it wouldn't make sense to buy another ceramic sealant right now. I'm not liking the Armor Shield as much as I used to after noticing dark steaks dripping down from my door handles after going a couple weeks without a wash. That doesn't happen when I don't use the Armor Shield Lite.

Hello Pan, merci pour cette belle decouverte , une marque qui comporte la mention docteur donne du sérieux. Le résultat est bluffant, penses-tu qu'il existe un équivalent disponible en France, comme Hendlex, Alchimy...?
Pan, I currently use TW Hybrid Solutions ceramic spray coating and love it. I also use the Graphene flex spray wax as a drying aide. What’s your personal opinion on how the Bead Hero stands up to the TW Ceramic spray? I’m always looking for something that lasts longer.
I wouldn't use the Flex Wax as a drying aid for regular weekly washes, it's overkill and could lead to streaking if used too often. Keep in mind Flex Wax is meant to be used as the base layer of protection, as it's super long lasting (actually lasts more in my tests than Ceramic Spray Coating). Bead Hero isn't meant to be used as the long lasting base layer of protection. It's meant for for maintenance of coated vehicles in my opinion. Where it excels is in the gloss, slickness and most importantly its ability to shed and sheet water quicker than most toppers. It will likely not last as long as Flex Wax and the CSC which are different types of products. So I wouldn't compare them to Bead Hero.
Thanks for your feedback. Your videos have helped me make some wise choices in detailing products. To clarify, I only use the Flex Wax as a drying aide about once every few washes or when I notice the beading slacking off. I did use the flex wax as a base layer on my daughter’s car and it was very hard and frustrating to get off. It was very hot and humid even though I was in a garage. I wonder if that could have contributed to that. I properly prepped the car as directed.

Another great video, Pan. This product looks amazing. Do you know if it is available in Canada? Unfortunately the postage from the US costs more than the product.
OK thanks Pan. As you will already know Dr Beasleys Polish looks really good as when using it it lays down a base layer for there sealants. Thing is its really expensive over her in UK. Would be good to see what you think of it all doing a full paint correction and Finish! Have a good Christmas! Peace out!
Another great overview. Pan, can you do another video but emphasizing the application. I watched the Apex detail video with the Beasley rep and the rep applied A LOT on the test panel. The rep did the same as an initial application of Bead Maker. In your application Pan you emphasizes juat 1 or 2 sprays per panel to avoid streaks .. confused my noggin is. Thanks for your efforts as always😊
I saw that video too and asked Dr Beasley’s and they said they have since readjusted the instructions, so my video is the most accurate. Less is more. Exactly how I showed it is the correct way.
..... the Beasley rep has now adjusted his presentation LOL. As I used the product over the summer and received more feedback from our network of detailers who had early access to the product we learned quite a bit of intel we were then able to share with everyone.

This ceramic coating also works great on the inside glass - including the inside of the windshield for streak-free and glare-free perfect clarity. The finishing touch for any detail job
-Mike Phillips
Is it safe on tinted windows on the inside?
@@brianengesser5039 - I’d say “yes” - hasn’t harmed mine or my wife Stacy’s tinting.
I don’t have the luxury to let this product cure after a wash. My garage is a small one-car garage, will this product cure properly outside in the sun in this hot summer heat?
@@xsoleprophetx I have this same question, mine is daily driver and my garage is set up as a shop so no parking, but I can go down to the local self-wash and do it under canopy but do not want to sit there for 2 or 3 hours lol. after I would dry and apply product, I typically finish my detail and am on the road withing 45 min. would this be enough time?
Officially they state the car is ready to be driven even in the rain after 2 hours. Ideally you would let it sit overnight when possible.
Thank for the kind words, Pan! We'll just have to wait for the 2024 Detailing Product Awards to see how Bead Hero does If anyone has any questions about Bead Hero or any other Dr. Beasley's-related topics, drop 'em below and we'll answer. You might even get a response from the 🐐Mike Phillips himself!
Do you make a product that doesn't require perfect weather elements or a garage? Thanks.
Will this be coming to the UK?
@@decker0373 Of course we do! People apply products like our Formula 1201 and Nano LS-10 outside in less-than-ideal conditions all the time. We've seen people apply Bead Hero outside and have great results as well. We don't necessarily recommend it, but that doesn't mean you can't!
Hello, will the Dr. Beasley beads mask the actual performance, if used as a topper, for a ceramic coating?
@@GavSloanyes! I believe Motorgeek will be willing it shorty if they are not already!
I use as a drying agent after each wash. Works flawlessly and the gloss is insane. For now, its the best product in its class. Ive tried them all.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
So this can be used as a drying aid?
They recommend you do a quick drying of your car with a blower, or with a drying towel, and then use this as a final quick detailer on "almost dry" paint to remove residual water (as there's always a bit of water left) and boost gloss/slickness if you want the best durability and performance from it.
this is still good to use as a drying agent on a vehicle that is already coated.? @@PanTheOrganizer

P&S Brake buster is so OP I have off road tires and I’ve tried so many tire and wheel cleaners. Diablo from chemical guys made the blooming on my tires laugh at me. Adam’s wheel and tire cleaner only got the surface but it was a lot better than chemical guys. The break buster literally got deep into the tires and got all the browning out. Amazing!

I love the versatility of this product, which is what I look for. Easy to apply, can be used on multiple surfaces, and great hydrophobic properties. This will be a great topper for my ceramic coating, going into the winter months.
Couldn't agree more!
Thanks!
Thanks for helping to support my channel and thanks for watching!
Pan,
Superb video as always.
I currently use the Bead maker Dream maker mix as my topper.
Definitely outstanding.
I decided to give Bead Hero a try.
So today, after the detail wash and bigboi dry, I topped it with Bead Hero.
Super easy to use just like Bead maker mix. It’s still curing but it’s looking great.
I’m going to give Bead Hero the edge so far. The gloss, pop, and shine are noticeably ‘richer’.
I’m thinking it will look even better after it cures overnight.
Thanks again for what you do.
All the best,
Chris, Tampa, FL
Thanks for sharing Chris!
So you saying bead hero seems to be and look better then p&s?
Sweet!
It's kid of frustrating that so many chemicals need a garage or shade, where I live, i have neither. I'd love it if the chemists made products that can be used year round and in all elements.
Check out Dr.Beasley’s Nano LS-10! Spray on multi surface coating that is SUN SAFE! Although.. do note that LS-10 is a sheeting coating, not beading.
I finally got to use this today & must say, it’s truly is pretty amazing! Lol. My paint is black with flakes in it & its leaves a great shine/gloss finish along with being very slick. Will be my go to.
Thanks for a great explanation on both the benefits and drawbacks backs of water beading. We all know water beading looks cool, but if there’s minerals (hard water spots), or chemical contamination in the water, (common) then water beading can lead to Type II Water Spots. The chemistry behind this spray-on SiO2 ceramic coating is more focused on enabling the water to flee the surface to help avoid water spots. Excellent presentation Pan, you did a stellar job of explaining the benefits and features for this product plus sharing how fast and easy it is to use. 👌
-Mike Phillips
Thanks Mike! When a legend of the detailing world agrees with me, it's a good day. :)
Have had this a few months here in the UK after watching the apex video that Brian did, on that video it was put across that you had to apply the product heavy and most of the comments on that video were people who were put off the product by the amount you had to apply but I bought some anyway and i have to say I love it, good to see you show that you don't need to use half a bottle
Yeah I spoke with the team at Dr Beasley's and it was a new product at the time of Brian's video, and they realized that a heavy application wasn't the way to go. Potential streaking and wasting product.
So now they have readjusted and less is more. I used way less than one ounce of product, and just one or two light mists for small panels, and 2-3 mists for larger panels like the hood is all you need. Wipes on easy, buffs off easy. :)
How often should this be used? Do you use this for all Maintenance washes as well?
See the Dr Beasley's comments on durability in the comments section. This isn't needed after each regular weekly washes. Once a month perhaps or as needed.
Bead Hero is so easy you will be tempted to use it more often than you need to. I use it after I blow dry the car as I finish with my towel dry.
Thats my problem, i used it for the first time after I waxed my truck and I have re washed it once and wanted to reapply the Bead Hero but didn't feel it needed it. So i was looking at how many washes before I probably needed to reapply. :)
@@directorofsuccess
@@mlj257 It's up to you! IF you use wax as protection, I'd think you would want to re-aply Bead Hero every 4-6 weeks? but again, mileage, garage or outdoor storage, etc can all change that.
@@directorofsuccess Thank you sir.
I'm interested in your continuing review of this product. Really hope you do updates at intervals to see how it holds up. Great video as always!
Thanks!
Seems like a great product! Couple of questions. Is it “stackable”? As in if continued use, does it adds layers of protection? Also, if I was to use this product & then my topper (Extreme Solutions Topper) would that diminish ether product? I’m assuming it would not, but figured I would ask.
Wondering this also. Since it lasts so long are we using Bead Hero after every wash? Or maybe just once in awhile and then using Topper on our regular washes?
@@realdopewater Exactly. Maybe just use the topper as a “maintenance” over the Bead Hero. Would be expensive to use it after every wash (depending of course). But I’m definitely curious! Lol
Thanks Pan. This looks like sweet product. The gloss was insane.
Thanks for watching Steve!
I am convinced. Order placed! Thank you Pan!
Enjoy! Let me know how you like it when you test it.
@@PanTheOrganizer But of course.
Pan the Man!! Cheers 🍻 from Massachusetts. Endless knowledge on this channel. Thank u!!
Thanks for watching!
Does it work well on the windshield compared to Rain-X? I'm about to give up on Rain-X. Not what it used to be.
So is this a topper to help with water spots or something and are you able to use with other toppers
This is a spray protection you can use on any existing ceramic or graphene coating yes. It will help reduce the chances of getting water spots as it helps sheet the water at a quicker rate compared to most toppers which mainly focus on water beading. Water beads, when they dry, leave minerals behind, and it's those minerals that create water spots and start etching through the clear coat.
So the quicker the paint sheds (sheets) water, the less water stays on the surface and thus you get less chances of water spots. So products like Bead Hero with quick water sheeting really help.
Of course, no product alone will help prevent 100% of water spots. You have to use safe wash practices (pH neutral shampoo, work in the shade, use a quick detailer to dry the vehicle when towel drying, etc). And if you have hard water issues where you live perhaps look into getting a simple water deionizer system to filter the water, for a 100% spot-free washing experience. That way you never have to worry about water spots when washing your car.
Pan thank you so much for taking the time to talk to me im so very grateful for that you just don't know. Also is a quick detail spay for dying aid? And after that process, is that when you do that topper? What are good quick detail sprays
@@PanTheOrganizer oh forgot so I also got the Dr Beasley paint hero to so what's the difference between bead hero and paint hero?
Can you please do a review of the full Dr Beasleys range please! 🙏
If I get enough viewer requests for it, I'll look into it for sure! The products I have tested from them so far are really good.
+1 you should do it next Pan
Awesome product and of course awesome video as usual, best spray Ceramic to date, however I have not had much luck on polished wheels, doesn't seem to hold up to these German brake pads! On the glass and paint though wow simply great.
Most spray products don’t last super long on wheels as that’s a harsh environment. Even wheel coatings don’t often go passed one year.
Thanks Pan - Yes, need to invest in ceramic pads next go around for my Porsche. Cheers. @@PanTheOrganizer
I've been using Gyeon wet coat, I've used one or two light mists on the panels, but it leaves a residue behind that has to be buffed out with some quick detailer . I've stopped using it on the panels and just the wheels instead, why is this? I'm following the instructions and watched the video by Yves bit still have issues with residual marks. I might actually look at Dr. beasley's
I have never had such issues with WetCoat. Did you reach out to Gyeon to troubleshoot with them?
@PanTheOrganizer Might be worth a shout. It looks like a ceramic coating high spot that has the pattern from being sprayed from the bottle on to the panel. It comes off easily enough bit it's just a bit annoying. I'm nearly at the end of the 1ltr bottle and I've just been using it on the alloy wheels. I fancy a change anyway, I quite fancy trying Yvan and Nick's or this one to be honest. I might just have had a bad batch maybe. Gyeon are usually very good.
Yes absolutely, Gyeon are top tier in my books.
@PanTheOrganizer Gyeon have come up trumps with some tips to try if anyone else has an issue with dark spots-
Due to the high concentration of SiO2 present in the product, dark spots can be visible on dark paint.
There are 2 tips we can give you in such a case:
1. Spray Q2M WetCoat directly in your pressure washer water stream
or
2. Use a dedicated soft mitt to spread the product on the paintwork and then rinse off (it will have a great increase in the durability of the product that way).
Interesting! Thanks!
I’ll give it a try. I’ve been loving technicians choice spray lately. That feels like silk 😊
Oh you'll like this even more. :)
@@PanTheOrganizer tried this product yesterday. Went on pretty easy. Smell was not pleasant. Smelled like paint to me. Haven’t seen the beads yet since it hasn’t rained. Ty.
Since it has been raining for 40 days and 40 nights, I can say, the beads are awesome!! so tight, all different sizes, it's really amazing :)
Sorry if I missed it in the video, is this a topper or a ceramic coating?
It’s is a coating! However, most pro detailers regard anything out of a spray bottle as a topper. Either way, all good!
Can be used as a stand alone or as a topper over existing coatings.
And Pan makes me spend another 35 bucks. Lol. Love Pan, I never miss a show. Even if it’s something I’m not really needed to know.
Thanks for the continued you show to me and my channel Steve! I’m blessed with an awesome audience!
What about Matte paint is it safe ?
My answer came at the end of the vidéo Thx
Hehe I was going to reply that I answered that in the video. ;)
This stuff looks amazing just picked it up today can’t wait to do a decon wash this weekend and apply.
Have fun!
Just a little question will you also apply this to wiper when apply on the windshield?
Can’t hurt. But ANY product you apply to a rubber interface is going to wear off. Think about it? The rubber blades are DRAGGING against glass over and over and over again - nothing is going to last. Great question though.
-Mike Phillips
Well said.
I mean those water beads are just insane😱. What an truly awesome product! Great video Pan, stellar work👍🏻.
Thanks Konsta! You would like this!
@@PanTheOrganizer For sure, I need to order this at some point and test it out👍🏻

Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this review, so interested to see how it does on my vehicles. Where is it ideally to store this after use? and does it have a shelf life?
Shelf life is 5 years factory sealed. After opening you have 24 months if capped tightly and stored in a cool dry place.
@@directorofsuccess thanks so much for the information . ✅💯
@@directorofsuccess how long does it last on the car? will it need repeated coatings being I’m in Florida heat. Love the ease of application
Thanks man!
@@PanTheOrganizer thank you and all your videos, your way of explaining is very easy to follow.
Hey Pam how are you ? Question do you have to discard the towel like a ceramic coating or can it be reused? When using this product.
You can wash the towel after use, and reuse it.
Pan you are my Bead Hero 👍👍👍🙂🙂
😂👍🏻
Have you tried spraying it on a microfiber tp apply it or definitely best sprayed directly on the surface?
Dr.Beasley's recommends spraying on the surface.
Can this be applied on a regular basis? (Following the same wash/decon/prep process each time?)
Yes! I use it every time I wash my car. I've made it part of my drying process.
Great video as always Mr.Pan Thank you very much
Thanks Nasser!
Is this a drying aid or is it like express solutions like all them
It’s mainly used on dry paint, but you could use it as a drying aid if you want.
@@PanTheOrganizeroh forgot its okay to put on ceramic coating
What’s your pick between this and turtle wax hybrid solution spray ceramic
I need more time to test Bead Hero long term, but it’s certainly slicker and hydrophobics are on another level, especially the water sheeting. It’s ine of the best and quickest water shedding products I have tested.
So many of these ceramic sprays now say you can do windows. Do they last as long as dedicated window treatments?
The honest answer is “no” - BUT the huge difference is RE-applying this is fast, SIMPLE and easy. To correctly apply a ceramic glass coating requires the proper steps. Both approaches work - but the lazy man’s approach is more practical for busy people and the average Joe Consumer. Make sense?
-Mike Phillips
Products that are versatile (i.e. that can be applied to multiple surfaces) tend to do great on paint, but won't last as long on glass or plastics, compared to coatings specific formulated for those surfaces. So a true glass coating will last longer, but can only be applied on glass.
Pan! Thanks for showing us the "convenience" of this product!
You are so welcome!
Pan, how would you rate the gloss enhancement with this product?
Pretty good. But keep in mind spray toppers are only icing on the cake. The biggest improvement in measurable gloss units is always by paint correction first. The protection applied afterwards is the icing.
Hi Pan, can this be applied on a PPF? Is it safe?
Yes! This water-based product is safe for PPF
@@directorofsuccess thanks love your products!
Hope your doing well Pan!! Have to give this a try.
I’m doing good bud, and I hope you are having a great weekend.
I appreciate the tips and details about the product!
Quick question, does steam washing affect the existing ceramic coating?
It might not hurt the coating but repeated cleaning with high heat and moisture is going to ADD longevity to any coating.
-Mike Phillips
@@DrBeasleys that what I was thinking about! Thank you.
Hi Pan, I'm pleased that you have included a link for your Australian subscribers, that never happens, and I would love to see it all the time.
For your info, I opened up the link and the supplier 'Carcareproducts' here in Oz dont have the Beasleys Bead Hero, they only carry the Beasley Matte products which is rather disappointing.
Yeah sourcing these in different countries is complex at the moment. For the links, I usually focus on my most represented countries on my channel: USA, Canada, UK and France.
I have a limited amount of words to put in the video description so doing more countries is simply impossible. Also, it takes a lot of time to research and put links. Rarely do people do it for more than one country. I do it for four hehe. I try my best but I’m only human.
Thanks for watching!
Did you also apply this product to the tires?
Hehe no, this is not meant to be applied on tires. This is what I applied on the tires: bit.ly/465j9WU
I have never seen a paint coating that you can also apply to tires by the way. Have you?
No I haven't but the tires and wheels looked amazing like the entire vehicle. @@PanTheOrganizer
I applied the Bead Hero to the wheels too. :)
can you try and tell what is the different between beads hero and paint hear or do you use both or you just one not the other? thanks in advance
Paint Hero = Friction Product. It's a drying lubricant. Spray on a towel, then put towel on mostly dry paint to touch up that last drip.
Bead Hero = Gloss and Crazy Water Action. Finish with Bead Hero.
Bead hero vs turtle wax seal n shine.
Which do you prefer?
Pan, I think you have used Gyeon Can Coat. How would you compare this product with the Can Coat?
I wouldn’t compare both products. CanCoat EVO is a spray coating that has the longest durability and chemical resistance from most sprays out there. But it’s also double the price of the Dr Beasley’s.
hey Pan, can I use a snow foam in a foam cannon to act as a lubricate when I use my clay mitt?
Yes
It's probably a bit too late to ask but could I use this with Gyeon's Ceramic detailer? Or would it conflict with each other?
It should be ok.
DrB plays well with others! All good!
How does this compare to Gyeon Q2M WetCoat?
WetCoat is a spray on rinse off sealant. Not the same thing.
Did you mention longevity of product if garaged? Thx pan
As Pan spoke about in the video durability is going to be dependent on several factors, including preparation, maintenance, mileage environment, etc. etc. under ideal circumstances, including preparation with a proper decontamination and paint correction durability is up to one year. However, in most real world circumstances, most real world, people will see durability between several weeks and several months.
@@directorofsuccess thank you so much.
Hi Pan, Thanks for another great video. Do you know how this compares to DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss?
I need more time to test Ceramic Gloss, but both are very good. The sheeting on the Dr Beasley's is for sure superior and quicker. For those who want a product that sheds water quickly, the Dr Beasley's is as good as it gets for a spray.
How does it compare to pns bead maker
I wouldn't compare both. Bead Maker is just a regular paint sealant that doesn't last that long (3-4 weeks at best). Bead Hero is a ceramic spray coating that will last longer, and for sure has much better hydrophobic properties, especially its ability to quickly sheet water.
Where Bead Maker excels is in gloss and slickness, and both are pretty close in that category.
How long will it last on the vehicule before another application is required? Love your posts Pan !!!!!!!
Always remember - how long ANYTHING lasts always comes Down to how you touch the finish. Wash a car with a brick and nothing is going to last long. Wash a ceramic coated car gently, (like you should), and you give any brand of coating the best chance to last long and perform long.
-Mike Phillips
@@DrBeasleysyou still didn’t answer the simple question
@@DrBeasleys this is a summer car (Volkswagen EOS) covered in a heated garage over the winter, washed once or twice a week with a low PH soap, dried with Chamois after (no bricks will touch the car lol) The simplicity of the application of your product makes it quite interesting the durability will be the seller, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months ??????
@@waynerryan Under the conditions you're describing, you could easily see a year of durability with Bead Hero.

This is a product that I'm going to be reaching for in the future. 🙂 🇨🇦
You are so welcome!
my daily driver sits outside 24/7 here in Vegas and I wonder how often this can be applied, would you say every 3 to 4 months should be sufficient, also what is the recommended shelf life before product degrades. thanks for all your hard work in bringing us great product reviews and the depth in which you cover them.
Thanks. You can apply this as often as you want. Certainly at least once every other month if you want max gloss and slickness.
Detailing chemicals are typically good for 1-2 years if kept in stable condition and never frozen.
For coatings in glass bottles, once opened, it’s hard to know exactly how long they can last as the curing starts. Most say 1-2 months.
@@PanTheOrganizer great, thank you, I always wondered the shelf life differences between si02 coatings vs si02 toppers/detail sprays such as this product and why they are different (shelf life that is).
Is this suitable for environments where you have a lot of dusting? I've tried several toppers sealants, and they all seem to attract dust.
I don't have dust issues where I live, so we'll have to see what my viewers have to say for those with issues like yours.
Great presentation as always, I actually watched Bryan‘s from Apex detailing presentation. first, he was showcasing this product with Director himself, and I followed his instructions where Director flooded the test panel with the product so I did the same on my vehicle,and ended up using 1/3 of the bottle right after first use but it looks like I have to knock it down a few notches. Luckily I watched your videos as well.
Time to update my application process.
Thanks, Pan.
Yeah that APEX video was filmed way before mine, and Dr Beasley's readjusted their own method with the product. My video shows the new correct way of applying, which uses very little product.
@@PanTheOrganizer awesome thank you, I’m already on my second bottle but I’m to blame as well for not reading instructions.

Another amazing product, thanks again Pan. It's a bit expensive out here in Japan, hoping they get an official retailer here so I can try it one day. Or maybe I'll pick up a bottle next time I'm over in the US on business.
Thanks for watching!
Hey Pan, how does the Dr. Beasley Bead Hero compare with Gyeon Can Coat Evo?
I wouldn't compare them as they are too completely different types of products. CanCoat EVO is a ceramic coating in spray form, as durable as you can get before you step into true coatings in glass bottles. So if you're looking for durability, CanCoat EVO is much better than Bead Hero.
Bead Hero is more for maintenance washes, to add a nice boost in gloss and slickness. CanCoat EVO is more a base layer of protection, that will last a long time.
Between this and Bead Maker which is better?
Define better? It depends what you want. For durability, Bead Hero lasts longer. For gloss and slickness, a slight advantage to Bead Maker.
@PanTheOrganizer All things considered, ease of use, sickness, beading capability, gloss and price. I'm a huge Bead Maker fan because it performs great and it's a very good value for what you pay for it.
Durability isn't super important, my car is ceramic coated and is washed 1-2 times per week and it's garage kept. Just like to use a spray detailer after my wash to maintain the coating.
What's the durability/longevity?
there are many variables (prep, use, maintenance, mileage, etc.) but most real-world people with real-world cars will see durability somewhere between several weeks to several months.
I just purchased P&S Bead Maker based on a video of yours that I just saw. How does this product compare?
Bead Hero is a ceramic based coating so will last longer and have better hydrophobics. I wouldn’t compare it to Bead Maker which is just a regular paint sealant.
Bead Maker only lasts 3-4 weeks so it’s not used for its durability. It’s used for its gloss and slickness. It’s hard to beat in those departments.
Hi pan can you help . I bought a bottle of flex wax by turtle wax and I put minimal product on a micro fibre applicator and it wouldn’t buff of very well it was like I put grease over the car I must admit I’m not very happy with it so far it was very grabby to try and get of can you suggest any tricks to get the best out of it thanks in advance
Hard to troubleshoot at a distance without being there or having more details on how you prepped your vehicle before the application. Also, what conditions you worked in... Try and clean the car, use iron decon, then clay, then machine polishing to perfect the paint, IPA wipe, and then one or two sprays of Flex Wax per panel max is all that's needed. Work in the shade, on a cool surface.
If you see streaks while applying, you take another damp towel (damp with just a bit of water) to wipe, and then another clean and dry towel to buff to a streak free shine.
Thanks for your input pan I did all the right things before applying the flex wax apart from machine polish because I haven’t got a polisher I will try it again but if it happens again I won’t use it anymore 👍
Just received my gallon size of bead hero. Pan, do you know the approximate durability of bead hero as a topper on a ceramic coating?
There's no real way of testing durability of toppers, as you have a long lasting protection underneath... So how would you know if you're seeing the topper's performance or the base protection's performance? And at one point, there's a limit to overthinking the moment and trying to figure out durability of everything, as durability also varies greatly for many reasons including conditions and weather and mileage. No two cars go through exactly the same conditions.
So the best you can do is see what durability claim the brand says for a product, and apply a bit more frequently. For example, if a brand claims 6 months durability for a topper, I would reapply once every 3-4 months to make sure I'm getting optimal performance. Especially for a spray product, it only takes a few minutes to apply.
As usual, another informative video. Good stuff. Question: my SQ8 has professionally applied Carpro CQuartz. Once a year I have my detailer refresh the coating using CarPro Gliss. Would continue with the Gliss or try Bead Hero?
Gliss is a completely different type of product. It’s a true glass bottle top coat with one year durability mainly used to help prevent water spots from the coating underneath.
Bead Hero is a maintenance product you would use more often after say a maintenance wash.
How does this compare to the P&S bead maker/dream maker combo? Does it serve a different purpose? Thanks for the great videos!
Bead Maker and Dream Maker is more of a shirt term quick detailer style to boost gloss and slickness. Bead Hero is a longer term ceramic based protection that has superior hydrophobics and an insane sheeting rate.
Another great video!! One coat is good? Seems so. Thanks again!!!
One and done!
Thanks!
Kind regards. I have not been able to find any of your videos on which are the best orbital and rotary polishers according to your experience with them in your detailing. Do you have any videos where you talk about your favorite polishing machines? greetings 👋
I don't use rotary that much, so I have no true recommendations. I use dual action (DA) or forced rotation (direct drive) polishers.
I have many videos on my favourite polishers here:

Hey pan is there a difference when detailing vinyl wrapped cars?
Not really, other than there are coatings now formulated for PPF and vinyl wraps. See my video: th-cam.com/video/I3AszYhWhs4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rls-5Sz4VMNAjBdq
Hey pan you have anything on how to get scratches or marks off your dash I think I have a Leather or some kinds of soft foam dash nit sure what kind of material I have but had my tint done on windshield and whatever tool they use for that scratch my dash so want to know what can be done please
No unfortunately, as I don't do leather repair. You'd have to look at leather specialist channels like Colourlock or Geist Leather Care. They have many tutorials on leather repair.
Hey Pan, will this product work with the clay & seal method you mentioned in your future of automotive clay video?
I don’t have an answer to that.
What the difference between the two products
Between which two products?
Hey Pan! Thank you for uploading. Would this work well on my glass shower doors? Or would a glass/windshield sealant do a better job you think? Wanting to make it easier to clean shower and less often. Thanks
Bead Hero can be applied over glass, however it may not be as durable as it would be on paint. A glass specific sealant or coating will last longer on a glass surface, but yes Bead Hero could work too. I made a video on glass showers here: th-cam.com/video/hYVfR_3ssWo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=G3A3WtbP-i5m-j2K
Pan! I just got a new carbon fibre diffuser, what would YOU do to protect it?
My car unfortunately gets parked outside 24/7 😂
If it’s clear coated, apply the same protection as you have on your paint.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you sir, appreciate it.

Hi Pan. Great video as usual. Question: how would you compare this to Gyeon CanCoat EVO? Thanks
CanCoat EVO is a heavier duty spray coating and will likely last longer. It serves more as a base protection for those who don’t want to apply a fulk blown coating from a glass bottle.
Bead Hero is used more as a maintenance topper. Has superior sheeting properties.
Thanks so much!
Can't get it in the UK😮
I believe Motorgeek has it on the way if they don’t have it already.
Yes you can get it in the UK, here: bit.ly/3PwzwGd
@@PanTheOrganizerOMG I was the first to look. Now I can't get it as it's SOLD OUT ! Holy dog poo batman
Yeah unfortunately that happens often when I release a new video, given the massive size of my audience. Products usually sell out quickly. But I'm sure they will be working hard to restock soon.
@@PanTheOrganizer I have my e mail set to be notified when available. It's still out of stock
Hey PTO, what about a comparison to the Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Spray Coating? your thoughts?
I wouldn’t compare those. The TW is more of a long lasting base layer of protection. The Bead Hero is used more regularly as a topper. Not the same thing.
Hi Pan! I want to get some advice on some of the products that I would need to start a mobile detailing business as a beginner and a person who doesn't have a lot of money to invest from the get-go. If I want to start a mobile detailing business, what kind of products do I need and what can I get for as little money as possible? Do I really need a van that some professional detailers have or can I just with my regular if I can't get a van right away because of the cost? I may consider starting a mobile detailing business at some point in the near future and any advice is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your response.

@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you for the reply. However, I have a very specific question about whether or not I really need a van at the beginning. If I can't have one initially, can I use my own car that isn't a van to start off? Have you made any videos on what an ideal beginner mobile detailing kit looks like? Thank you again.
I’m not mobile. But yes you could use your car or what ever vehicle you have available. Many mobile detailers started with their own cars before buying a proper van.
Reinvest in your business as you gain more income. Start small, grow bigger with time and profits.
Check out the video I linked of the young mobile detailer that makes 130K a year. His story is truly inspiring.
@PanTheOrganizer Thank you, Pan!
It’s a true hero 😂
I would love to try this, but I have so much Avalon King Armor Sheild Lite left that it wouldn't make sense to buy another ceramic sealant right now. I'm not liking the Armor Shield as much as I used to after noticing dark steaks dripping down from my door handles after going a couple weeks without a wash. That doesn't happen when I don't use the Armor Shield Lite.
Wow Pan👍. What soa would you recommend for Matte paint on a Mercedes SUV?
Funny you should ask, I made two full videos with matte Mercedes vehicles. I guess you missed them? Here goes:

Enjoy!
Hello Pan, merci pour cette belle decouverte , une marque qui comporte la mention docteur donne du sérieux. Le résultat est bluffant, penses-tu qu'il existe un équivalent disponible en France, comme Hendlex, Alchimy...?
Pas à ma connaissance
Pan, I currently use TW Hybrid Solutions ceramic spray coating and love it. I also use the Graphene flex spray wax as a drying aide. What’s your personal opinion on how the Bead Hero stands up to the TW Ceramic spray? I’m always looking for something that lasts longer.
I wouldn't use the Flex Wax as a drying aid for regular weekly washes, it's overkill and could lead to streaking if used too often. Keep in mind Flex Wax is meant to be used as the base layer of protection, as it's super long lasting (actually lasts more in my tests than Ceramic Spray Coating).
Bead Hero isn't meant to be used as the long lasting base layer of protection. It's meant for for maintenance of coated vehicles in my opinion. Where it excels is in the gloss, slickness and most importantly its ability to shed and sheet water quicker than most toppers. It will likely not last as long as Flex Wax and the CSC which are different types of products. So I wouldn't compare them to Bead Hero.
Thanks for your feedback. Your videos have helped me make some wise choices in detailing products. To clarify, I only use the Flex Wax as a drying aide about once every few washes or when I notice the beading slacking off. I did use the flex wax as a base layer on my daughter’s car and it was very hard and frustrating to get off. It was very hot and humid even though I was in a garage. I wonder if that could have contributed to that. I properly prepped the car as directed.

Another great video, Pan. This product looks amazing. Do you know if it is available in Canada? Unfortunately the postage from the US costs more than the product.
Yes it’s available in Canada. I put links to it in the description under the video like for all my videos. ;)
OK thanks Pan. As you will already know Dr Beasleys Polish looks really good as when using it it lays down a base layer for there sealants. Thing is its really expensive over her in UK. Would be good to see what you think of it all doing a full paint correction and Finish! Have a good Christmas! Peace out!
Merry Xmas to you too!
Another great overview. Pan, can you do another video but emphasizing the application. I watched the Apex detail video with the Beasley rep and the rep applied A LOT on the test panel. The rep did the same as an initial application of Bead Maker. In your application Pan you emphasizes juat 1 or 2 sprays per panel to avoid streaks .. confused my noggin is. Thanks for your efforts as always😊
I saw that video too and asked Dr Beasley’s and they said they have since readjusted the instructions, so my video is the most accurate. Less is more. Exactly how I showed it is the correct way.
..... the Beasley rep has now adjusted his presentation LOL. As I used the product over the summer and received more feedback from our network of detailers who had early access to the product we learned quite a bit of intel we were then able to share with everyone.
Wonder if I could apply this on my MacBook Air which is a fingerprint magnet 🤔
ce produit est il en vente en france
Non malheureusement
Pas pour l'instant
