I've not tried it so can't say but the wet application you describe is the same as the " PS beadmaker" but that also goes on dry paint too.

And with Autoglym EGP it’s rubbish if there is any water when you put it on. Different products. Different methods.

I washed & waxed the car yesterday so of course this morning I woke up to rain. So I took advantage of that and went out to spray Megs Ceramic Wax over the car and let the rain do the job of spreading it. When the rain stopped a just gave it a quick rinse and dried it off. Job done. This evening rain shows it’s done a decent job

So I finally got round to trying this today (on Deb's car!!!)
Washed car and rinsed. Sprayed this on, its quite thick and bluish in colour. Tried using drying towel but I think the panels were too dry and it was difficult to pull the towel around, so lightly sprayed some water on car and then took a microfibre and wiped it all over the panels, followed by drying towel and it seemed fine, nice gloss. Due to rain tonight so will see.
If its ok, I'll do it on mine tomorrow

Yeah, you don’t wet the car, spray it on then dry it, you wet the car, spray it on, then rinse it off with a light water spray, then dry it off. It’s that rinse off that actually spreads it all over the car. Drying after that is very easy.

It certainly has helped keep the car cleaner than any other product I’ve used over the years. Some products feel a lot slicker to the touch than this, but those seem to attract dirt and dust a lot more....which I can’t quite understand the chemistry around that

F'kin p$55ed right off!
Went to do mine and pulled the pressure washer over when uncoiling the hose. Snapped the part off that the hosepipe connects to!
The rest of it unscrewed so hopefully can get a replacement part, but cheesed off. Had got all my other stuff out ready to rock, so had to put it all away!

Fixed the pressure washer, turns out the broken part is the same as a hozelock adapter that goes on a water tap.
Washing the car then a neighbour comes over for a chat.
.....an hour later it was cold and light fading! Quickly finished off but didn’t want to do the product as it was getting dark, so still didn’t get it done!

Use the pressure washer to wash the car but don’t use it to rinse the Megs off. That needs to be a gentle spray as you want the drops to run gently down the car rather than being blasted off it.

Not used it myself, I always use Sonax BSD as a drying aid and 'topper' when I dry. I'd also suggest never spraying a panel and spraying the towel instead, much neater and less waste.

I was wondering if blow drying the car would work or does the product have to be worked in and needs to be wiped off to get it right?
