A4 has had its 2 coats or 2 goes with the zymol deep gloss detailer spray.


Can't really see much improvement or difference from the any other detailer spray l used. Such as sonax, done & dusted, ziano, megs and carpro.


After a down pour of rain some sheet beading appears. Not as tight as l normally get.

Finally got round to using the Avalon King ceramic my daughter bought me last year. Couldn't get rid of all the scratches in the prep but quite pleased with the results. Eight hours of graft mind

Took this a couple of weeks ago after a wash the day prior and overnight rain on my Amarok. Last polished 7 months ago using Autoglym SRP with a topcoat of AutoSmart Wax Detail Spray. It's a big beastie for ceramic coating but I might get it done one day.

For a direct comparison overnight rain the day after I completed the detailing back in May.

This was when the detailing was completed, came up amazingly well.

Here’s my beading- haven’t had time to properly detail since getting the car a couple of weeks ago.

S3 had yet more loving the other day after the ceramic coating was looking flat on the roof & bonnet like it had a coating or something on it. Did a light Autoglym SRP then CarPro Reload before rinsing to see if the lush beading had returned, behold & to my utter delight it had made a welcomed appearance once again.

Spent a few days in South Wales last week, I took this one at the top of the A4069 (Top Gear road) the weather spoilt the drive a bit, I made a circular route and did the A4560 as well which was almost as good as the top gear road but shorter, thought you might like to see some beading in the wind, the beads were running up hill and I really struggled to open the door to get back in to the car after taking this picture!
We eventually cut short our break on Thursday night and had a cross country blast Back to the relative safety of the midlands before the storms hit.

The return to rain isn't so bad.
Nothing exotic, just a coating of Dodo Juice Red Mist.

Red mist is a excellent sealant durable as well
Yeah, I'm surprised so far, even on the low down areas behind the arch vents and lower doors it's still beading, usually the first place to lose it's strength.
