BEADMAKER VS CERAMIC DETAIL SPRAY: WHICH IS BETTER AND WHY?

T. Wax is cheaper by the pint, but BM is far cheaper if you buy the gal. Though BM requires a bit more product. I'm over BM. Initial slickness fleeting. Nice look, but l suspect dust and other contaminants sort of adhere to it more than some. Have to use more elbow grease and pressure, seems like.

Bead Maker seems to be an Excellent product that is extremely slick, but also has a durability issue. I have never used the Ceramic Detail spray, which is why I am watching this video.

[@MyGuyKirby]

Once again you have a hidden message to watch how and where we spray our iron remover and wheel products. This helps explain the often asked question on why we do wheels first. Why coat and protect the paint and then remove it by accident doing wheels last! Thanks Jimbo.

[@briandraper7630]

Beadmaker is legit. These videos only show durability. That’s not what everyone is always after. Beadmaker is a “topper” not a standalone sealant. Doesn’t make sense to test it for sole durability. Need a gloss meter and test slickness etc. since most people (like myself) have great sealants and waxes underneath beadmaker and only use it for the boost in gloss and slickness and apply after every wash

[@drakelessner3981]

exactly right man. this was an unfair comparison.

[@Phuong_Nguyen_]

But the more durable it is the more protection it provides right?

[@yungboibutter2230]

@@Phuong_Nguyen_ sure If you’re using it as a stand alone sealant. Bead maker is really only used mainly during regular maintenance washes and quick protection. It is labeled a “topper” so anyone who uses it as a topper is just to temporarily get high gloss and slickness and hydrophobic properties for a bit to protect and maintain the main coating they already have on their cars. Beadmaker isn’t meant to last for so long I think at most it’s 1-2 months of protection by itself it’s just great for ease of use and quick protection.

[@gambietti]

Beadmaker is great as a drying aid or topcoat on your favorite sealant or wax. I spray the whole car with it including glass etc. It does get glossier hours later. Weak point is protection so I use it after every wash.

I do enjoy the product comparisons here and I get that comparing one product to another is the goal of them as the videos are created today. I would be really curious to see something that looked a bit more like what someone watching this channel would do to a panel. It would be great to see a comparison of "systems." In this type of test, the sections of a panel would have a product stack from a particular company exposed to different tests. That would also really spread the gap on cost for the cheap vs expensive since there would be a set of products involved and the cost would really stand out.

I love all of your videos, but this probably has to be one of my favorites (of many from this channel); otherwise I use Beadmaker when it was suggested by "Pan the Organizer" when I asked about a comparison between Rain-X Waterless Car Wash and Beadmaker...Kinda got laughed at, but that's sometimes how you get your answers...lol...I liked Beadmaker because of how easy it was to apply, forgiving, and finally effective (very slick after that cure period and glossy that's very similar or exactly the same as a car room show quality)...When my old man brought home a Mercedes, I was asked to detail; which naturally, was very stressful for me but Beadmaker was a lifesaver because I always got the best results with that product...Either I got complimented on the car, or asked if my truck was for sale...lol... Naturally, since my Gallon of Beadmaker is running out, I'm looking at either experimenting with Turtle Wax (seal n' shine) or Technician's Choice...Favoring Technician's Choice because I can get it in a 5 Gallon jug and save money, and trips out to the store hoping to find it on the shelves at the value that I want it at (I wouldn't blame TW for bumping up their price to $10 instead of $5 & $6 before the demand)...With TC, I can also upgrade to ceramics when I'm ready for the ultimate chemical resistance and hydrophobic properties...

[@nerfytart]

I've seen that Bead Maker is a good topper for ceramic coatings. I'm debating on whether to get ceramic coating or not (mainly for the paint decontamination/correction). Would TW S&S work with or against a ceramic coating? Could you use TW S&S and Bead Maker together?

[@outcast668]

@@nerfytart No disrespect to this channel, but referencing; but check out a video by Car Craft Auto Detailing titled "P&S Bead Maker Review: Extreme Testing, Review & Conclusions!"...I kinda understood that if you used Bead Maker, then you had to use it as a standalone or with strictly other waxes or polishes; otherwise if you used it with Ceramics, then you weren't going to get the best results...Bead Maker, used with other waxes was great as a last step to seal in those properties and I have done it with Rain-X when I wanted to preserve those hydrophobic properties...Whenever those hydrophobic properties got weak on the windshield after a month or so (windshield always gets the most attention, because you have to see out of it and it's also confronting bugs and wiper fluid); then you would simply reapply and get those properties back again to drive safer when it's raining very badly. To answer your question: Yes, absolutely you could use TW S&S and Bead Maker together, or vice-versa...lol...For now, I'm happy combining Bead Maker with Rain-X and NuFinish...

I used the same two products the crappy eagle one iron remover I am trying to get rid of and dawn soap. I first used dawn then I used the iron remover to strip a car of the Beadmaker after about 34 days of being on the car in Florida. It’s been extremely hot here lately as well. Car sits outside all day. Customer wanted a coating. After using dawn and then the iron remover the car was still beading water. Beadmaker claims are 30-60 days of protection. Beadmaker easily stood the test of both the same things you hit it with. The car needed a one step polish anyways so I was not worried about totally removing the product. I personally never equal beading to protection and never = no beading to no protection. I think test can very and I don’t personally think torture test tell the true story. I get why you test products but many products you have tested have lasted far beyond what was advertise and this is after being in the Florida sun and rain 24/7. A lot of the “cheaper products” l have seen get really bad water spotting after just a month. One product being seal and shine.

The TEC may start to fail a bit sooner, maybe... it was really hard to tell but it's so much easier to apply that it's defiantly worth it! I didn't get to do a side by side with Griots ceramic spray. TEC defiantly holds up better than Bead Maker for me too. For me, the TEC is the winner over Bead Maker.

@@lavelle3366 I read a review on Reddit where a guy likes the Tec more than the bead.

[@spencersmustache2844]

Tc makes a good detail spray. I still like cutting it with onr.

[@stephencarbonaro5462]

Black and plasti coat, isnt it? Why do you say dip? Or is it dip?

[@autodetailingpodcast]

Ya your right

[@henareedwards6151]

Haven’t used them at all

[@jimflanagan6029]

As the on going product testing continues , here’s another one to refine our quest to get the cheaper but best working . Tech choice VS Turtle wax seal & shine ? From your East Coast affiliate,

[@stevenwilliams4018]

Looks like concours nova jet beats beadmaker and seal n shine. Would like to see you test jet vs SnS to see if you get the same results.

[@autodetailingpodcast]

Never heard of it. I’ll check it out

I like beadmaker but it has been streaky for me in the CA sun (march-december) detailing outside. But what about dream maker??? Anyone have experience with it? I am using it but not sure where to use it best. Im not sure it even makes for more gloss?? Having a hard time making it work for me help pls

[@autodetailingpodcast]

I haven’t tried it. But it doesn’t seem worth it to me with such short durability.

[@abcdefggg5658]

@@autodetailingpodcast yeah i havent seen it gloss much either. Seemed good but i will keep testing on different cars and colors & how much gloss does the ceramic detail spray by TC add?

[@michaeladkins6754]

So, which product would you prefer? Ceramic Detail Spray or Ice Seal and Shine? Better yet, what do you use on your personal vehicle?

[@joeschmoe5195]

Which is your pick of all so far from which you have had your hands on? Or are you allowed to answer?

[@autodetailingpodcast]

Of course. It’s my channel! I’m going 1. TW Seal and shine 2. Ceramic detail spray

[@Mrjozz011]

Auto Detailing Podcast hey Jimbo did turtle wax say anything about making a pro detailing special line like Meguiars where you can buy gallon size products? Just wondering.

[@autodetailingpodcast]

We didn’t really talk about it. But I’m assuming not. I don’t think they offer gallons in anything except their soap
