One word... Hydrophobic!

That looks exactly like my truck wearing #26 with occasional wipedowns of Ultimate Quik Detailer.

Thats the same way I dry my truck also.

TELL US! wE NEED TO KNOW NOW!





i'll tell you what it is. Polish your paint with whatever polish of your choice. Then top it with whatever lsp of your choice. Turtle wax, nu finish, zaino, dg, optimum. whatever. And you'll get sheeting like that. I guarantee it.

yep... anytime you newly polish something it'll do just that.

Zaino Z-2 or Z-5



I hope it's Z-5Pro I plan on using it for the first time on my car, and that beading/sheeting is amazing. Just subscribed to the thread just to see what the OP used.
 
I was thinking the Megs test LSP too. I got amazing sheeting with UQD over freshly polished paint (finished polishing my sisters car, didn't have enough time for wax until the next wash, so I just UQD'd it to protect it for half a week).
 
I have not polished that car in about 4 months! It is still swirl free however but before this LSP that I have on there, the paint was washed, clayed, polished with 106ff, then the LSP was applied and topped up recently.
 
Almost anything will sheet when you use a hose with no nozzle actually.



However, that sheeting is IMO above average and the beading amazed me which is why i took the video.

I made some nice beading/sheeting videos for you guys, check them out.



YouTube - Water beading and sheeting dry with hose



You can see the other 2 I have if you look to the right, high quality (full 640x480) versions available on request. Youd be amazed how much better that beading looks when its not on youtube and you can see it without loads of compression.



Guess the LSP :woot2:



This is EXACTLY how I rinse my cars hood! :hifive:
