What do you guys think of this? I thought I would snap a couple of photos when it was raining to showcase some of my work! (Quality isn't the best on the pictures because they were taken from my Blackjack)

I am not a professional detailer, but I do own an UDM. I am a weekend detailing kind of guy, and I am prepping my car for the Woodward Cruise.:waxing:

Looks fine! What product do you have on there, and how long as it been on there?

I applied E1 Nanowax about 1.5 weeks ago. I use Megs UQD also quite frequently, so the beading is a probably a combination of both together?
 
Well, if it's 1.5 weeks, then pretty much any product will produce beading. Our van is sealed with Collinite 476S and DG AW wipedowns every 2 weeks or so, and it's beading about the same as shown in your pictures. It's been probably 4-5 months since I used Collinite :)
 
it looks good. But EO nanowax does not have very good durability. I would top with a wax that does not have any cleaners in it, like #26 or something.
 
SRT-4? Nice beading. Nano looks great, but i also have had poor durability with it. get some #26 as kaval has suggested, and your good. Any more pics?

It's a Neon, but it seems to be confused as a SRT-4 quite often. Here is a different picture of the car in its current state:
