Discussing "Bead Maker" w/ Bob Phillips from P&S Detail

[@-Galavanta-]

I bought a gallon of this from Matt when he first got in in his store just to see what all the hype was about and I can honestly say there is no other chemical in the detailing world that has blown me away like this, awesome stuff.

[@-Galavanta-]

Contrary to what Matt said I found it super easy to apply, just like detail spray, but I am in the North West so could be due to the conditions. The end result is very similar to a wax with a VERY slick finish, I also find that dust doesn't stick quite as easily as before so the car stays cleaner longer.

[@-Galavanta-]

Yes this would be the very last step, apparently you can put it on top of wax, sealant or bare paint, I have only used it on a 4 month old sealed and waxed surface. Also take a look here kzbin.info/www/bejne/hX7SepuFZpiEq68

[@petermaidment1175]

Goes on easy and real slick, shame it doesn't last more than a week here in the uk!

[@mynsxt6]

Try Hydrosilex Recharge!!!!! you will be blown away again!!! This stuff rocks and is more durable

[@ntartaris]

So many better products than this.....sorry. Take a look at NV range from NV Car Care. Kills BM!

[@illspeed831]

I love how you went from a skeptic to the product, and now the owners are visiting you at hq. Your visit to the rag company sold me on the product. It works great!

[@osofast18stang54]

This stuff has me doing what we are always told not to do by Matt all the time. I can’t stop running my hand down the car to feel how slick it is. This stuff is incredible

[@stevennaylor397]

So humble. Nice getting him to give us a little more background on the hype train!

[@danlc95]

Loved that description of the late spring day.... Winter won't leave Detroit this year. I'm so happy for Bob and team to have such incredible success with Bead Maker!

[@SuperTurbodave]

Thanks, Matt for sharing can't wait to see his brother talk about the product and learn the Science behind it.

[@greentipacademy8696]

good stuff...made my E92 look even better! Didnt think it could look any better than the Collinite shine, but it does.

[@violetblue_m3]

I'm giving this product a try and so far it just works. I'd compare it to my beloved Polish Angel products, but BM has much more slickness. It is satisfying in that way. The first application wasn't difficult, but maybe it is because I applied over a sealant and not a coating. Applied in hot Florida evening after a minor rainfall. No issues yet.

[@semiephemeral9]

Now THAT is interesting Tony, because i"m a recent PA convert and one thing I noticed with Master Sealant was the slickness. What did you apply it over? Thx.

[@violetblue_m3]

nailbomb3 over about 6 month old Master Sealant maintained with Rapid Waxx and Presto Detail during that time.

[@lonefgc4508]

Anthony Palombo Did you replace RW with BM then as far as topping and boosting MS? I actually use Angelwax Ti-22 and Rapid Waxx combo.

[@violetblue_m3]

Lone FGC correct.

[@lonefgc4508]

Anthony Palombo interesting indeed, I’ll give it a try once I’m done with PA RW then.

[@Scarlif3x]

His brother is on vacation for the rest of his life with all that money they making lol

[@meyer097able]

Ya I have shelf with about 25-30 different spay products just because I like to try them out and Nothing has really stood out to me until Bead Maker . Was actually kinda shocked to find how slick every panel was not to mention no sign of any over night dust film ( which there always is ). I found myself *" Pulling a Moreman "* walking around my truck lightly touching every panel slightly confused while thinking in my head this feels freckin awesome, and i guarantee you will too.. Buy the gallon... 🤙

[@ObsessedGarage]

Ha, ha... The ole back of the hand rub down.

[@ted3489]

Can Bead Maker be compared with C2V3? If so what is the difference that you've experienced?

[@AndrexZ18]

Hi Matt, Can I use bead maker over a windshield that has been protected with Gtechnique or CarPro coating?

[@ObsessedGarage]

Yep, it plays well with almost all of them. You'll know if it doesn't streak, then you are good.

[@motiOn732]

Matt talking beadmaker - couldn't click a video faster

[@JuanPerez-yy5hr]

Product just came to Australia It has blown me away insane thanks for the viseo

[@vongdong10]

This stuff is legit. The gloss from this is outstanding. 4 days after application and my car was still very shiny with very little dust. 3 days through rain and it still shined.

[@mynsxt6]

I found via my own testing and application that Bead Maker has some anti fog properties, so I use it on my interior glass and makes it insanely easy to clean with basically a damp microfiber!!!!

[@Carlos.Rivera]

Tinted windows?

[@edwardhirsch8012]

Used Bead Maker to clean my eyeglasses after applying it to my vehicle...wow. No more scratchy lens glare. Now I'm using it on my shop windows and home windows.

[@ObsessedGarage]

I'm going to try that.

[@caseG80]

Shower doors

[@bladadidoblah]

i plan to use bead maker direct on a brandnew car. But later on i also plan to put on jescar powelock plus + collinite 845. If this is the case, should i remove bm first before i put on the jescar and collinite, like start from scrarch, or can i just put jescar on top of the existing bm that i earlier applied and go on with the process? TIA

[@cobra454tim]

What’s funny Matt is my dad’s business was just down the street from P&S in in Hayward California off West winton and he would always swing by and bring a bunch of products home in the early 90s like mirror glaze, and their multi dressing still remember the white bottles !

Hey Matt, I’ve been using CarPro Reload for the past year. I ran out of Reload, and I bought Bead Maker. Can I use Bead Maker on top of CarPro Reload or do I have to remove Reload first?

[@Captain-Donut]

Another classic Matty Morrision off the cuff presentation .....it’s what you do best. Love from the uk 🇬🇧

[@DieselDan09]

This stuff is amazing I have tried a ton of quick detailers and this is the best of the lot

[@quattrings8240]

Would you guys suggest this product as a drying aid after you washed & rinsed the car.. i mean you can apply it when the car is still wet or even when it's dry. i'm looking for a drying/protection/topper on top of my coating. The only issue is i live in Belgium and can't seem to find a shop who sells it overhere.

[@widetrackerinkazoo6559]

I use Rupes P808 (30% in solution with distilled water) as a drying aid and find it works great! Even in high heat and humidity it levels perfectly!

[@tzalwelweetwel]

From Belgium too man, just go to the Amazon uk store. Takes about 4 workdays. Buy multiple bottles since shipping is around 20£

[@terp05h]

Hey Matt what brand of portable detailing lights do you use? They are in the background of the video on the tripod (looks like a hood mount model as well). I remember an unboxing video you did a while back but haven’t been able to find it.

[@collyersam]

Those are from a company called Scangrip. Great lights.

[@bradjohnson1229]

Just had a paint correction and an application of Modesta BC-08 done yesterday. How long should I wait before I apply Bead Maker?

[@Gladiator1972]

So this stuff can be applied on top of the Jescar Power lock and Colinite #845 combo?

[@ObsessedGarage]

Yes, works well.

[@namek1925]

Can it be used on plastic trim/glass like a spray wax ?

[@MasterOfShine]

namek1925 yes

[@ObsessedGarage]

It does surprisingly well on glass.

[@atxgti4218]

It’s my go to for a final detail on glass. I particularly like that it increases the slickness on glass so my wipers are less likely to skip on my glass coating!

[@jakesmith9509]

I usually use a spray wax after a wash. Can I still apply a spray wax and then bead maker afterwards? Or would this completely replace the spray wax?

[@donschultz7759]

Does this protect against UV rays in heat and humidity

[@khyoon14]

I specifically use it as a drying and nothing more. I definitely don’t saturate the panels as more doesn’t mean better as they advertise.

[@TheEkam24]

Can you top si02 spray every 2-3 months on a ceramic coated car that's maintained with bead maker?

[@bosoares]

I blame Matt for making me buy this product. I’m not even sure when I’ll be able to use it because now it’s the time of the year that it’s harder to care for the car. I had heard about it from other places but I just didn’t trust their opinion. Matt approved it so I decided to go for it. I’m undecided if I’ll put this on my Syncro coated car because there’s no way anything beads more than that, it may reduce the performance I have now. But my wife’s car has a different coating that doesn’t bead as much, that will be a good car to test this on.

[@mikemcbeehtx]

Great info. Its on the shelf waiting for me to try it. Thanks for another good video Matt.

[@Ashley-dy7bx]

Where can I get bead maker in the UK?

[@jesserivas7305]

Can this be applied over a sealant or wax? Or should the paint be fully stripped from any waxes or sealants prior to applying the bead maker??

[@kenny0271552505]

So to achieve maximum gloss id wash the car then use spray silicon dioxide like gyeon wet coat or Hyrdo2 followed by spray sealant after car is dry finally finished with the magical bead maker?? Got mineral white paint on the M3 so cant wait to see this after affect of the 8 hour cure time :D

[@ObsessedGarage]

I would skip the spray SiO2 sealant and use something better as a base. A true coating or some sort of sealant or wax.

[@kenny0271552505]

Obsessed Garage ah yes, car is already coated with Gyeon Mohs+

[@marcosantonocito8876]

Can you BM on top of collinite or sealants?

So you can actually do a Wet application with Bead Maker? Liike spray on then Rinse off with water?

[@ObsessedGarage]

No, you have to wipe it off.

[@frank12777]

Can you use this after every wash and does it replace spray wax?

[@ObsessedGarage]

That's how I am using it. Heavy application on the first wash, then use as a drying aid for subsequent.

[@TrungPham-vd4hs]

Do you prefer this to OCW as a topper/drying aid after a base of Opti seal that has been topped with Collinite 845?

[@brianeccleston8609]

Matt do you prefer this over car pro reload?

[@ObsessedGarage]

Definitely. I'm not a huge proponent of spray SiO2 sealants. I don't think they look very good.

[@ricardogomez01]

Thanks Matt!

[@benjaminshuetrim9874]

The user experience is odd because it feels like you’re spreading ‘orange coloured water’ over the paint. However, once you get used to not smearing a thicker product over your paint, the results overcome all the feelings that you’re not actually doing anything for the paint. It shines up and slicken’s plastics and paint very well. I tried using nova Lustre the other day after a wash and it was just too slow in application. I immediately grabbed the BM spray bottle and it just went on so quick and I believe it kills the lesser shine produced by Lustre…

[@Tank4sale]

Is this available in uk / ireland ?

[@myalfie]

The products looks fabulous wish we could get this in the UK

[@Piglet6256]

So you use this as a wax/sealent/coating replacement? Or on top of the mentioned 3?

[@fdu6]

As you wish, really.

[@eppyz]

So would you prefer this over let's say Aquawax from Duragloss?

[@nandor690]

What do you use for tire shine? Does it splatter all over the paint while driving?

Can I used the whole de decontamination process and then used had speed and finished it with bead maker?

[@bankox4]

Used it for the first time yesterday here in the UK. It's gone on top of my 4 months old wax coating which has been washed and given a QD a number of times. Got to say I am so impressed with the results Bead Maker gives. The dark red metallic paint really pops, the glow is unbelievable and the slickness is the best. Just need to see how long it lasts and would like to know, after a 'heavy' application first up, do I now use lighter coats to maintain it or does it always need lots of product to get these results?

[@1974gladiateur]

It doesn't last long. It's really nice at the beginning but it doesn't last.
