Bilt Hamber Autobalm Beading Shots

It was pouring out so I decided to let the G sit out for a couple minutes, parked it back inside. It has one coat of Bilt Hamber Autobalm applied on the 14th of August. So it's doing well as expected. The beading isn't as tight as say Collinite 845, but it still beads so thats what matters. I had to turn the contrast up way high to highlight the beading. Let me know what you think!










I'll probably throw on another coat before it snows, that should last till spring. Anyways let me know what you guys think!

Looks great, but some say that sheeting is even better than beading.

i haven't seen a wax that makes rain sheet off the car. The only time I see sheeting is after I wash the car, then I sheet the water off with the hose.

yeah possibly, rain drops coming vertically down won't sheet off the car, it'll bead like what it did. The other thing why you didn't see it sheet of is because I moved the G a car length out of the garage into the alley to catch some rain. Then I moved it back carefully so the beads stay still. Normally it'll sheet off.

yeah one coat of the Bilt Hamber Autobalm should last a good 4 months+. I didn't expect it to bead that much considering it's more of a sealant than wax

definitely, makes drying so much easier. Just take a leafblower and it just flies off the paint
