Was just curious if it was normal to have big beads all over the car compared to the other cars being almost dry. And when i was driving, I was watching an Olympic swimming pool form on the hood from cruising speed.
The paste wax is making the water bead up like that. Like Kenchan said, If you just used the 4* it would sheet off.
