I have Sonax BSD and it's a great quick detailer.
With my car being White Gold it's hard to get a really nice deep 'wet look' as some get on darker coloured cars but I recently tried DoDo Juice's Light Fantastic Wax followed by a couple of layers of their DoDo Acrylic Spritz. It's amazing especially on lighter coloured cars and beads fantastically.I left 24 hours between coats. Don't have any beading pics yet but here's the finish.

Lovely colour and it's really looking good Harry.
Wet look is possible - try a wax coating now on top with something like Autoglym High Definition wax. If you can get to use a DA machine to buff it up all the more better to get a gleaming white gold finish The beading will follow even with a heavy dew and will last months.

This is my car after a shower, around 6 weeks after using DoDo Light fantastic followed by DoDo Acrylic Spritz. Seems the protection will last a while yet!

Looks great
Our neighbours must think we're a strange lot - after all how many other car owners take photos of their car in the rain! In fact who'd want to .... nothing else has the beauty of a Rover wet or dry

I now live where my car is parked out of sight in my parking zone.
I know it's sad but how I miss standing at my Lounge window and watching the rain bead and run off the car after a polishing session.
