Wanted to share my experience so far with paint sealants. This is my third Countryman, 2013 All4s, 2016 All4s, and now 2019 All4s. Every single different F60 i see on this site inspires me in some way. Such cool cars. Someone somewhere called it the Swiss Army Knife of cars. Couldn't agree more.
I am a bit of a garage detailing fanatic. Always have been. I love the process of producing beautiful results. I was brought up with the concept 'show your car all the love and it will show you the love back.' Plus there is nothing more therapeutic (in my opinion) than cracking a beer, playing some good music and detailing my car.
With all that said, I have become fascinated with learning about and using paint sealants, and yet I'm a complete rookie with them. I have always been a fan of Mothers Paste wax, and putting in the elbow grease to get the shine. I found it hard to believe that something so easy to apply and remove could provide such incredible results. I regularly shop at autogeek.com, and they suggested I try P&S Beadmaker from Remy Doyle. All I can say is WOW. I have never seen a product bring the color and depth out of paint like this product! The shine is unlike anything I have ever seen with a traditional wax. After I did my F60 with the Beadmaker (and I was blown away), I used it on my wife's silver Honda Civic, and honestly what the Beadmaker did to her silver was even more impressive than what it did to my black F60. It turned her paint into this ultra premium looking and feeling gorgeous warm badass silver. I highly suggest trying the P&S Beadmaker if you are looking for a great, ultra affordable sealant that pops your paint!
With that said, its the only sealant I have tried, and I am sure there are some others on this forum with far more experience with them. I would love to know if there are other sealants out there I should consider trying, or any tips and tricks from those more experienced. Few photos attached but they dont do justice to how gorgeous the P&S beadmaker made my paint look! thanks for taking a look!

 

Are you a member of Obsessed Garage? If not it is a community you would probably like. Mostly car detailing stuff. Lots of BMW, Audi, Porche, guys mostly, but all makes and models actually. The owner Matt Moreman of Obsessed Garage the company started out just making you tube videos and has morphed into having a store where he puts together car detail packages from his years of trial and error, sells Swedish pressure washers, and just too much to list. right now I believe they are doing a paint correction on a Corvette Z06 I believe and have a pod cast. Good Community. I have and use his Foam Cannon and trhee bucket method for washing my cars.
I put Race Deck flooring down in my garage after watching his vids. Very good info. and lots of professional detailers there to answer questions and help people out.
