Dream Maker is a nice product for a final touch. I have used up my first bottle and was surprised how well it did on 50-year are old single stage paint. Owner was impressed so he bought a bottle
Both products are absolutely amazing. I typically will put layer both products. I put the Bead Maker on first and then the Dream Maker on top. Bead Maker is definitely going to last longer and give you more protection, while the Dream Maker is going to give you a lot more pop.
@@ForceFreddy I do the same combo and I let bead maker cure for at least 5 hours before putting dream maker on.Ideally you should allow bead maker to cure overnight.
@@PanTheOrganizer Can this product be used over a spray sealant? Eg. I was planning to wash an unprotected car then apply Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray coating and then Dream Maker on top of the sealant. Should I do it in reverse order (Dream Maker then Ceramic Spray on top)? Would either method just be a waste?
Gun metal paint plus Dream Maker equals bliss! Recently I was finally able to complete the annual Mother's Day detail on her dark grey Dodge Durango. I topped it with Bead Maker after a one step paint sealant and then followed up the next day with Dream Maker. The mirror gloss was insane!
Hi Pan, I have a new SUV with ceramic coating. I clean it using the Rinsless wash method with ONR. Do you recommend using both bead maker and dream maker for the final touch to get more slickness and gloss? Or I can get it using only dream maker?
That's up to you to decide. You can now combine Bead Maker and Dream Maker in a secret DIY mix for even better results. See my video here: th-cam.com/video/twuTd2VNlxw/w-d-xo.html
I normally just use a quick detailer after drying but find my car is always covered in dust the next day, no matter what product I use. I used this 3 days ago and only just seeing dust on the car! Amazing stuff! oh, the shine on a metallic blue car is outstanding!

Why wouldn’t you use a gloss meter to test effectiveness? A before and after would have been a great test. Otherwise not sure you see the value of adding a product like this over any other topper you’ve recommended, but as always…thank you!
Oddly, the very shiniest the paint can get is after polishing it, and nothing on it. Adding something on top of the shiny paint actually loses gloss. Try adding wax or other products on top of your bathroom mirror and see what makes it more clear.
There are not many companies out there that actually mix and produce there own chemicals. Most buy them in bulk, market it ans that's that so it's nice to see a product company with an actual chemist
I’m a big fan of Bead Maker and I use it over Jescar’s PowerLock sealant. Looks spectacular. Love the introduction to a new product and I will certainly be adding a bottle of Dream Maker to my arsenal. Thanks for the info Pan.
@@Brandon-no3vc Not really sure what you are talking about and “masking” but I use the Bead Maker as a topper after a maintenance wash. It brings back the shine and slickness to the paint and it makes it easier to wash.
@@Brandon-no3vc Jescar’s Ultra Lock Plus is a CERAMIC infused polymer sealant. The combo works for me. Not sure why you’re so hung up on this. But ok, you made your point. I won’t do it anymore.
Hi Pan ! I love all your videos ! Can I ask a quick question ? How long do I need to wait to apply P&S Paint Gloss/Dreammaker after applying Beadmaker?
Same question I Have I think Topper is one of the best products out there for gloss and slickness. It’s also very easy to apply. For an outside vehicle I get between 7-10 days of slickness and gloss.
I ride a Harley, after a few hour trip, what is the best way to get the road dirt off/bugs off the front fairing without doing a full wash? I'm interested in trying P&S, but don't want to apply every time when I need to clean the road dirt and bugs off the front. Cleaning a motorcycle is time consuming with a full wash. Looking for a quick and easy method after a long day ride.
For dusty areas like the one i live in i recommend Carpro Cquartz uk 3.0 topped with Carpro Reload. I recently tried Turtle wax graphene flex wax. Amazing gloss and slickness (ok with dusting) but it's pain to apply. It streaks like crazy. As soon as it will be available in my country i will try P&S Dream Maker. 👍
Loved the review Pan! Lots of good info on both products and when it’s best to use each one. I have used Dream Maker and it really makes the paint pop with lots of gloss. One weird thing that I had happen was on a gloss meter it dropped the gloss numbers but visually it was stunning. Love that viper chair also!
So Pan, if I wash my car weekly, and it has ceramic coating (And PPF in the front only), is it enough to use Dream Maker after each wash ti get that gloss and not mask the hydrophobic properties of my coating?
Hard to say. Applying any sort of topper will usually always alter the properties of coatings. Unless you use the compatible topper from the same brand as your coating.
Hi Pan I will be using Avalon King on my Ford F150 truck and am looking at using Bristol trim coat/Cockpit Car Re newer on the plastic trim so my question is, can I use that product or another and then also use the ceramic coating over it. And if i use the ceramic coating on the trim, does it appear glossy? specifically speaking of the trim between the driver and passenger windows.
Typically the short answer is no. Trim coatings already contain protection (I don't know the Bristol one though). But a trim restorer or ceramic coating won't necessarily make the trim appear glossy, but it will make them look newer and richer (better looking). A good trim coating/restorer is this: amzn.to/3DFc6q7 You won't need to apply protection on top of that after using that kit.
Great review. Will a gloss meter help in determining if the gloss really bumped up a significant amount? I have used this and it seems to do the trick.
Pan have you ever used Bead Maker on the interior windows ?? I hope I'm not doing something wrong but I've been cleaning my windows with it and they come out perfect with no streaks
Yeah many detailers use Bead Maker on exterior and interior glass, it works awesome. I still like to clean them first with a glass cleaner and glass towel, and sometimes finish with Bead Maker for slickness and easier future cleaning.
Hi Pan - I noticed Beadmaker “streaking” as you mentioned I’m assuming due to over-application. Will this situation resolve itself after a couple washes or must the excess be removed somehow?
This can absolutely be used on a coated vehicle. On wax, paint sealant, or ceramic coating. No problem. You can even combine both products for the best of both worlds: gloss, slickness and anti-static properties. See my video here: th-cam.com/video/twuTd2VNlxw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kgkEBYAO958wDJiR Welcome to my channel.

I have been detailing for 26 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.
It’s very close but Dream Maker takes the edge for slickness. I don’t have dust issues where I live so I can’t say much on antistatic properties but my viewers say both are very good.
The majority of drying aids eventually coat the microfibers and make them less absorbant over time, as they usually have some protection. Hence why it’s important to wash the towels immediately after use with a quality microfiber detergent like P&S Rags to Riches. Or use a drying aid with zero protection like a rinseless wash (ONR, McKee’s N914, etc).
unfortunately i can't find the Obsessed garage drying aid or the Xtreme solutions topper in my region. if this Dream maker managed to be anywhere in EU/UK i'll be happy. thanks Pan.
Curious how this compares to P&S Paint Gloss? Is this an updated version? I love Paint Gloss. It’s my drying aid for every maintenance wash. Dust is my enemy here and it keeps it away for a week so I can enjoy my glossy vehicle for at least a few days 😁
Did a rinseless wash on my truck, not really dirty, just needed a little love! Applied Dream Maker when I was done and it really looked great ….. made the GMC Cayenne Red really pop! Thanks for another great video Pan!,
Hello Pan, great video! I just put Adam's graphene coating on my car a few weeks ago (still sitting in garage) and now I want a topper. Is BM or DM a good topper or is there better for black cars? Thank you!
For the Adam's Graphene Ceramic Coating, their own Graphene Detail Spray is pretty good. Here's a link: amzn.to/3wXfN8u Bead Maker is also a good choice. Just keep in mind those two only last a few weeks. So regular application is key. Dream Maker is awesome for gloss, but it adds no protection. It will only last one week or until your next wash. You would still need to add a proper protection topper once a month. If you want a longer lasting topper that will give gloss and slickness like Bead Maker, but that can last 2 to 3 months, try this one: amzn.to/3wRqzhH
Dream Maker is not to be used as a drying aid. It's made to be applied no dry paint. But you could mix it with Bead Maker in a 1:10 ratio and then use that as a drying aid. See my video on the special mix here: th-cam.com/video/twuTd2VNlxw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=IaN_bqYNo7DuSNcQ Welcome to my channel.

Hey Pan What are your thoughts on their quick detailer? I torture tested it today in Florida sun and heat, hot day today. Did a full spray on wipe down on a pollen infested black Mercedes. 0 pollen has stuck to it since, usually it is incredibly dusty by now... I have beadmaker and dream Maker, but the detailer.... That is the one...
I use many different tire dressings as this is a detailing channel and I test things all the time. My favourite products are in my popular annual awards video here: th-cam.com/video/LkD22UGujmw/w-d-xo.html
In my mind (in theory), I like the idea of beadmaker not being a 6 month product in that I use it as a drying aid after every wash. So, durability isn't as much of a concern as whether or not a product starts to "build up" and cause issues from that perspective.
Pan could you do a video on which product to use to remove wax and bead maker and also how to prep for a new coating of wax e.g panel wipes. Many thanks!
Hey Pan, I saw your video about products that give the most gloss and I have been trying them all out 1 by 1. Which do you think gives a better look in terms of saturation and gloss. NV Nova Lustre or Dream Maker? Thank you and best of luck to you!

Yes, you would use it as a drying aid. See how I use it as a drying aid on my own ceramic coated Porsche in this video: th-cam.com/video/KEAfc_LUO4E/w-d-xo.html
Hey Pan, did a rookie thing this morning. Got up early so it was not hot to wash three cars. I grabbed the beadmaker instead of my soap. sprayed off car, washed with beadmaker (diluted in a bucket) and followed up with Dream maker. Let me tell you they sure do shine now but is that an issue? or can they wait until I wash again? Thanks
Out that’s not a good thing at all. Bead Maker isn’t made to clean a car. So most likely you pit some swirls and scratches in the paint… Next time you wash your car, use a proper shampoo. When you’re done washing and drying, see if the paint needs to be polished to remove the damage you might have caused.
@@PanTheOrganizer all cars were thoroughly rinsed first. I didn’t see much dirt etc. I will give them a wash this weekend again and see if any scratches.
I threw my bottle of dream maker out. Even on coated cars it DESTROYS any beading. I applied it and the self cleaning properties and beading of the coating disappeared for a minimal gloss increase. I promptly rinsed it out with tarX and tossed the bottle in the trash.
Pan, Another great video. I’ve been watching your videos on Bead Maker, to include your first introduction to Bead Maker at the Rag Company. I finally broke down tonight and ordered it. I just want to make sure that I can use this as a drying aid after each wash. I have CanCoat Evo on our vehicles. I want to do the initial application of Bead Maker on dry panels and then as a drying aid after that. I just want to make sure I’m not overusing it as a drying aid after the first build up application. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work.
@@PanTheOrganizer I forgot to ask you. Have you used Technicians Choice Ceramic Spray? I want a product that will not continually build on my CanCoat Evo. I’m curious on your thoughts of Technicians Choice. From the videos and research I’m doing…it may be superior to BM and a gallon is compatible in price. I need something that mates well with my Evo but will not continually build upon it to take away from or compromise the Evo. I’m so torn on a good silica spray or product for my sacrificial layer on the Evo. Any thoughts or advice is greatly appreciated. Thx again as always.
Good day Pan I am using CarPro Reload as a standalone sealant and i am quite happy with the looks Would it make sense to use Dream Maker on top of Reload for some extra gloss?? Thank you
I am new to detailing and going to do the ceramic coating for the 1st time. The question is: How often do I have to do the Iron removal once I am done with the ceramic coating? Is it required for every time the car is washed after ceramic coating?
You would do the iron removal once every 4 months on average, or depending on how much brake dust contamination you see on your paint. It won't harm the coating. Assuming you are using a true coating from a glass bottle from a reputable coating brand.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks for the quick reply. I am using all the products from your recommendations for 2021 and am going to order the following P&S Brake Buster Total Wheel Cleaner W8 Bug Remover Car Pro Reset Car Pro IronX Gyeon Clay Lube 3D ONE HYBRID for scratch removal CARPRO ERASER INTENSIVE POLISH Turtle Wax 53737 Hybrid Solutions Turtle Wax 50984 ICE Seal N Shine Griot's Garage 10978 3-in-1 Ceramic Wax Armor Shield Ceramic Coating Invisible Glass CARPRO CQuartz DLUX Plastic & Wheel Coating Chemical Guys TVD_107_16 V.R.P.

@@PanTheOrganizer Can you also let me know the following: After the paint correction, do we have to do the wax polishing also before applying the ceramic coating? Also, I have to finish a Honda Odessey(2009) which has never been paint corrected before, and BMW(2019) which is almost new, what kind of pads should be ordered for the above 2 cars?
Two different types of products. Dream Maker only lasts about a week and adds zero protection. It’s made for ultimate gloss. Seal N Shine is a sealant that adds protection and can last up to six months.
What I have found is that on the P&S products I have tried...the sprayer top is of very low qualtiy. Cheap. Also, all these "toppers" are all about the same. Same raw ingredients...just different labels.
I want to be sure about this great product so I do ask something that you already said... Can I use this P&S Drema Maker over a ceramic or graphene treated surfaces?
Wet Coat vs Xtreme Solutions Topper vs Dream Maker? What do I need to know as to the differences and under what circumstances do I use each? Or, do they over lay in what they do? ~ Thanks ~
Three very different products… You can’t compare them. WetCoat is a spray on rinse off silica spray sealant. 2-3 months durability. Topper is a topper. Mainly used as a drying aid and lasts a few weeks. Dream Maker offers no protection. It’s just a gloss enhancer. Lasts about a week or until your next wash.
I used beadmaker at the museum and wasn't too impressed. It didnt seem to last long? Maybe it was me. Maybe the local detailing supplier I got it from pre diluted it? I really like the TW seal n shine or graphene infused flex wax. I might have to try that dream maker though as a drying aid. That Viper chair is a step up from that snap on seat I was using. Being a big guy, it's tough to get down on those lower sections sometimes without being on your hands and knees or butt. The things we do to make vehicles look minty fresh!
Hi Pan, does it make sense to use the P&S Dream Maker on Xpel Stealth PPF? I’m looking for a drying aid. Does Dream Maker work well in Canada winter? Thanks!
So what's the answer when you want to use a drying aid on a ceramic coated vehicle each wash to try and cut down on love marks? I've been using Lithium Ignite after wash which is a dedicated drying aid.
For a regular wash, I would use Dream Maker. Zero protection, but insane gloss. Lasts about a week or until your next regular wash. And then, once every other month, use a silica spray sealant for the actual coating maintenance.

Have you ever tested cerakote paint sealer and what is your opinion on this product

Perfect timing of this upload. From what I gathered Dream Maker has no protection properties just gloss where's Bead Maker is a spray Sealant.

Hi Pan - I noticed Beadmaker “streaking” as you mentioned I’m assuming due to over-application. Will this situation resolve itself after a couple washes or must the excess be removed somehow?
You probably over-applied or applied in humid conditions. Use very little product (except for the initial coat). Yes a wash normally corrects this.
Could this be used on a car with a ceramic coating? Or better off to just stick with something like wetcoat by Gyeon?
This can absolutely be used on a coated vehicle. On wax, paint sealant, or ceramic coating. No problem.
You can even combine both products for the best of both worlds: gloss, slickness and anti-static properties. See my video here: th-cam.com/video/twuTd2VNlxw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kgkEBYAO958wDJiR

Pan how do you think the gloss compares to their paint gloss spray? And is dream maker just as effective with anti-static properties?
It’s very close but Dream Maker takes the edge for slickness. I don’t have dust issues where I live so I can’t say much on antistatic properties but my viewers say both are very good.
@@PanTheOrganizer Wonderful. I'm going to order some now so I can start using CleanMaker. Thanks dude.
👍🏻
I have been looking for a drying aid that will NOT make my drying towels hydrophobic.
Would this affect drying towels?
The majority of drying aids eventually coat the microfibers and make them less absorbant over time, as they usually have some protection. Hence why it’s important to wash the towels immediately after use with a quality microfiber detergent like P&S Rags to Riches.
Or use a drying aid with zero protection like a rinseless wash (ONR, McKee’s N914, etc).
Hi Pan ,is this OK to put on the top of turtle wax spray ceramic coating? yet another fantastic review. 👍 love the seat.
Yes you can put both of these P&S products on top of any paint protection.
Enjoying your videos and learning a lot. Question: What flooring is that? I recently got Polyuera and just love it. Keep up the good content.
It’s polyurea. All the details in my full garage tour video here: th-cam.com/video/wx6HTBAzeXI/w-d-xo.html
You reckon it's better than Tac Systems equivalent?
It's glossier than Shinee Wax but Shinee Wax lasts longer and has a bit of protection, Dream Maker has zero protection.
unfortunately i can't find the Obsessed garage drying aid or the Xtreme solutions topper in my region. if this Dream maker managed to be anywhere in EU/UK i'll be happy. thanks Pan.
May I ask which is your favorite showroom glossy topper? Thank you for the review !
I made a video about that here: th-cam.com/video/NOTNed04xYE/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer I watched the video, and to be clear, the best glossy look was by Obsessed Garage- if gloss was the only consideration?
I always use griots garage best to show detailer gives my paint nice pop does this give more gloss then griots Thanks
That’s a good quick detailer too.
Curious how this compares to P&S Paint Gloss? Is this an updated version?
I love Paint Gloss. It’s my drying aid for every maintenance wash. Dust is my enemy here and it keeps it away for a week so I can enjoy my glossy vehicle for at least a few days 😁
Paint Gloss has more lubricants and UV protection.
Did a rinseless wash on my truck, not really dirty, just needed a little love! Applied Dream Maker when I was done and it really looked great ….. made the GMC Cayenne Red really pop! Thanks for another great video Pan!,
Thanks Randy!
Hello Pan, great video! I just put Adam's graphene coating on my car a few weeks ago (still sitting in garage) and now I want a topper. Is BM or DM a good topper or is there better for black cars? Thank you!
For the Adam's Graphene Ceramic Coating, their own Graphene Detail Spray is pretty good. Here's a link: amzn.to/3wXfN8u
Bead Maker is also a good choice. Just keep in mind those two only last a few weeks. So regular application is key.
Dream Maker is awesome for gloss, but it adds no protection. It will only last one week or until your next wash. You would still need to add a proper protection topper once a month.
If you want a longer lasting topper that will give gloss and slickness like Bead Maker, but that can last 2 to 3 months, try this one: amzn.to/3wRqzhH
Hi. Can i usa dream maker as a drying aid on a ceramic coated car (gyeon pure) after maintaining washes to quicken the application?
Dream Maker is not to be used as a drying aid. It's made to be applied no dry paint. But you could mix it with Bead Maker in a 1:10 ratio and then use that as a drying aid. See my video on the special mix here: th-cam.com/video/twuTd2VNlxw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=IaN_bqYNo7DuSNcQ

Yeah. E. Solutions Topper vs Dream Maker. Love the chair
Vs Phoenix E.o.d. Titan 🙌🏼
I have been using Bead Maker for years. Is it OK to use it on top of a ceramic coating?
Yes, you can use Bead Maker on top of any existing protection.
Hey Pan
What are your thoughts on their quick detailer? I torture tested it today in Florida sun and heat, hot day today. Did a full spray on wipe down on a pollen infested black Mercedes. 0 pollen has stuck to it since, usually it is incredibly dusty by now... I have beadmaker and dream Maker, but the detailer.... That is the one...
What quick detailer? Paint Gloss?
May I ask the product you use for tire dressing? Looks very wet and gloss.
I use many different tire dressings as this is a detailing channel and I test things all the time. My favourite products are in my popular annual awards video here: th-cam.com/video/LkD22UGujmw/w-d-xo.html
In my mind (in theory), I like the idea of beadmaker not being a 6 month product in that I use it as a drying aid after every wash. So, durability isn't as much of a concern as whether or not a product starts to "build up" and cause issues from that perspective.
I personably just like having a high quality ceramic/graphene coat on the car and applying dream maker after every rinseless wash.
Pan could you do a video on which product to use to remove wax and bead maker and also how to prep for a new coating of wax e.g panel wipes. Many thanks!
Great review and explanation of both products! I could really see the gloss on the vehicle in the background.
Thanks!
Hey Pan, I saw your video about products that give the most gloss and I have been trying them all out 1 by 1. Which do you think gives a better look in terms of saturation and gloss. NV Nova Lustre or Dream Maker? Thank you and best of luck to you!
Dream Maker has the highest gloss as it's strictly a gloss amplifier (it doesn't last long and doesn't add any protection).
@@PanTheOrganizer I will mix the dream maker with the bead maker and see how that works. 😃
I made a video about mixing those here: th-cam.com/video/twuTd2VNlxw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=irPCLPmTp0ztuGN7
Hi pan ! Can i use the dream maker on a ceramic coating ? Will not lose the hidrophobic properties?
Thanks
Yes you can but it can potentially change the hydrophobics a bit but that applies to any topper you would put on top of an existing ceramic coating.
Can I use the Dream Maker on top of ceramic coating?
Yes
Hi. How are you. What did you use on the tires to make it so shiny. Thanks
This is an old video so I don't remember which tire dressing it was unfortunately.
new subscriber and newly exploring car detailing here in the Philippines Pan. Just a quick question, can you combine the usage of both products sir?
Hi Archie! Welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam as we surpassed 940,000 subscribers and we have over 123 million views! I have been detailing for 26 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers.

You can combine these two products if you have the appropriate dilution ratio. I explain how in this video: th-cam.com/video/twuTd2VNlxw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UfVTdgIEdAKFY6-z
If we have a ceramic coated car we have to apply this as a dry aid ?
Yes, you would use it as a drying aid. See how I use it as a drying aid on my own ceramic coated Porsche in this video: th-cam.com/video/KEAfc_LUO4E/w-d-xo.html
the dream maker is it like new version of p&s paint gloss showrom spray n shine?
Yes and no. Paint Gloss has UV protection in it.
Hey Pan, did a rookie thing this morning. Got up early so it was not hot to wash three cars. I grabbed the beadmaker instead of my soap. sprayed off car, washed with beadmaker (diluted in a bucket) and followed up with Dream maker. Let me tell you they sure do shine now but is that an issue? or can they wait until I wash again? Thanks
Out that’s not a good thing at all. Bead Maker isn’t made to clean a car. So most likely you pit some swirls and scratches in the paint…
Next time you wash your car, use a proper shampoo. When you’re done washing and drying, see if the paint needs to be polished to remove the damage you might have caused.
@@PanTheOrganizer all cars were thoroughly rinsed first. I didn’t see much dirt etc. I will give them a wash this weekend again and see if any scratches.
“ Pan The Man” your killing me! I keep spend money I’m not going have any left to get up to the garage! Hope you got 2 of those chairs one for me!😂😂😂
Heheh it's an awesome chair I agree. What colours would you take yours in?
@@PanTheOrganizer whatever you buy for me!😂😂😂
What is the difference between dream maker and paint gloss?
I threw my bottle of dream maker out. Even on coated cars it DESTROYS any beading. I applied it and the self cleaning properties and beading of the coating disappeared for a minimal gloss increase. I promptly rinsed it out with tarX and tossed the bottle in the trash.
Pan,
Another great video. I’ve been watching your videos on Bead Maker, to include your first introduction to Bead Maker at the Rag Company. I finally broke down tonight and ordered it. I just want to make sure that I can use this as a drying aid after each wash. I have CanCoat Evo on our vehicles. I want to do the initial application of Bead Maker on dry panels and then as a drying aid after that. I just want to make sure I’m not overusing it as a drying aid after the first build up application. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work.
Yes you can use it the way you described. Be very light on application if you’re using it as a drying aid after each wash and you will be fine.
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks so much Pan. Have a great day.
@@PanTheOrganizer I forgot to ask you. Have you used Technicians Choice Ceramic Spray? I want a product that will not continually build on my CanCoat Evo. I’m curious on your thoughts of Technicians Choice. From the videos and research I’m doing…it may be superior to BM and a gallon is compatible in price. I need something that mates well with my Evo but will not continually build upon it to take away from or compromise the Evo. I’m so torn on a good silica spray or product for my sacrificial layer on the Evo. Any thoughts or advice is greatly appreciated. Thx again as always.
Totally loved it, thanks Pan it was amazing can't wait to also test on my car the minute it hit our shores🙌🔥
Best detailer for gloss video?
hey pan am sure you can not use dream maker on wrap matte car becuase matte doesnt require gloss it will cause color change correct Mr.Pan?
Correct. Not recommended on matte surfaces.
Xtreme solutions topper or this new dream maker strictly for gloss Pan???
Dream Maker
Good day Pan
I am using CarPro Reload as a standalone sealant and i am quite happy with the looks
Would it make sense to use Dream Maker on top of Reload for some extra gloss??
Thank you
Using Dream Maker on top of anything makes sense for extra gloss for sure. I sometimes apply it to my own coated Porsche for that specifically.
Hi pan! Can i apply this on top of tw graphene flex wax? Will it mask/impede the properties of the graphene wax?
Any topper you apply will slightly alter the hydrophobics of what ever is beneath it. Don’t overthink it.
I am new to detailing and going to do the ceramic coating for the 1st time. The question is: How often do I have to do the Iron removal once I am done with the ceramic coating? Is it required for every time the car is washed after ceramic coating?
You would do the iron removal once every 4 months on average, or depending on how much brake dust contamination you see on your paint. It won't harm the coating. Assuming you are using a true coating from a glass bottle from a reputable coating brand.

@@PanTheOrganizer Can you also let me know the following: After the paint correction, do we have to do the wax polishing also before applying the ceramic coating? Also, I have to finish a Honda Odessey(2009) which has never been paint corrected before, and BMW(2019) which is almost new, what kind of pads should be ordered for the above 2 cars?
Hey Pan! Would you recommend this or seal and shine
Two different types of products. Dream Maker only lasts about a week and adds zero protection. It’s made for ultimate gloss.
Seal N Shine is a sealant that adds protection and can last up to six months.
What I have found is that on the P&S products I have tried...the sprayer top is of very low qualtiy. Cheap. Also, all these "toppers" are all about the same. Same raw ingredients...just different labels.
I want to be sure about this great product so I do ask something that you already said... Can I use this P&S Drema Maker over a ceramic or graphene treated surfaces?
Yes you can use Dream Maker on top of any existing protection: waxes, sealants, ceramic & graphene coatings.
Thank you Pan. Just they type of product I wanted but had no idea existed.
Thanks Pan! Is it overkill to use both at the same time? Cheers!
Sidni from P&S has a video on this product on the rag company's TH-cam channel. Both products are actually designed to work together if you wish.
Do you ever check out the SDS sheets to see what are in the products you use or recommend?
Pan, Can you tell me if the bead maker works on a vehicle with Adams graphene coating? If so is the initial application the same as any other finish?
Yes
Wet Coat vs Xtreme Solutions Topper vs Dream Maker? What do I need to know as to the differences and under what circumstances do I use each? Or, do they over lay in what they do? ~ Thanks ~
Three very different products… You can’t compare them.
WetCoat is a spray on rinse off silica spray sealant. 2-3 months durability.
Topper is a topper. Mainly used as a drying aid and lasts a few weeks.
Dream Maker offers no protection. It’s just a gloss enhancer. Lasts about a week or until your next wash.
What is a good sealer or wax to use in the winter months?
This has NO protection in it, as I mentioned in the video. This is just a gloss enhancer that will last a few days to about a week.
Can this be used as a topper as well
I used beadmaker at the museum and wasn't too impressed. It didnt seem to last long? Maybe it was me. Maybe the local detailing supplier I got it from pre diluted it? I really like the TW seal n shine or graphene infused flex wax. I might have to try that dream maker though as a drying aid. That Viper chair is a step up from that snap on seat I was using. Being a big guy, it's tough to get down on those lower sections sometimes without being on your hands and knees or butt. The things we do to make vehicles look minty fresh!
Great video thanks! Thanks for the UK link !
Can I use this on top of OG Drying Aid?
Yes you can!
What tire dressing was used on this vehicle? It has a really nice contrast with the paint!
This one: amzn.to/3F2iMhF
Hi Pan, does it make sense to use the P&S Dream Maker on Xpel Stealth PPF? I’m looking for a drying aid. Does Dream Maker work well in Canada winter? Thanks!
Yes you can use this as a drying aid. Just keep in mind that Dream Maker only adds gloss. It doesn’t add any protection.
Can I apply this if there is light dust on the car?
It's not really meant to be used as a quick detailer to pick up dust. It's supposed to be used on clean paint.
So what's the answer when you want to use a drying aid on a ceramic coated vehicle each wash to try and cut down on love marks? I've been using Lithium Ignite after wash which is a dedicated drying aid.
Here are my favourite drying aids: th-cam.com/video/NOTNed04xYE/w-d-xo.html
Nice product will you be resting any of the Apex Detail Surface produces? I have the Rehydra sheet
Looks like a great product Pan. Yet another product that I will have to add to my collection.
here in Europe dealers sell "P&S Paint gloss showroom spray n shine". Is it the same product as "Dream Maker" with a different name ??
They are two different products.
Do you recommend paint gloss or dream maker after a wash? My vehicle is already ceramic coated
For a regular wash, I would use Dream Maker. Zero protection, but insane gloss. Lasts about a week or until your next regular wash. And then, once every other month, use a silica spray sealant for the actual coating maintenance.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you so much!
You bet!
Hi Pan, quick question can I wash a detailing applicator sponge or do I have to throw it away
It depends what you used it with. Can you he more specific? What products are you applying with it?
@@PanTheOrganizer it would be for interior products for dashboard,side doors panels.
In that case, you can simply wash it and reuse it. The only applicators you throw away are those used to apply ceramic coatings from glass bottles.
