Single Stage Paints and Sealants

I recently have tried out many sealants on my car (95 Gs300 single stage blk) but after a few weeks it doenst bead like it should. I ve applied the same sealants on cars with Clearcoats and they are doing fine. We have been having some crazy weather in houston and it rained non stop for 12hours atleast. Since my car was parked out side, when it started raining the beading was perfect but when I woke up the next day(still rainning) it wasnt beading like it was supposed to.
Could this be due to the fact that I have single stage paint and the sealant might not be adhereing to the paint? Or is Caranuba my only option?
All help is appreciated
 
Do a search on beading, etc.

I don't feel like fully explaining it but beading don't mean much. I've seen cars bead that you know haven't been wax in years. it has nothing to do with SS or CC paint. So do a search for in depth info.
 
I understand what your saying about beading, I did search the forum about single stage paint and didnt find much info. I guess my question is how well sealants adhere to BC/CC paints as compared to SS paints.
Thanks

I'm not paint expert but i don't think there is a differnce about sealents adhering to CC/SS paint. As long as its preped correctly it should last a few months.

I concur on the prep I have put used sealants on SS many times and there is no change that I can see from CC...as for how long they last don't know would imagine that they last about the same as on CC cars
