I have just done ours with Autoglym resin polish it's very easy to use and leaves a nice shine.the water just pills off of the surface.
Also used showroom shine dry wash which is also good and easy to use am going to use that when out and about to save water.
I used SRP first and then applied the Autoglym resin so that I had a clean surface to put it onto.I can't understand how SRP is shedding water.
SRP is a polish not a wax or sealant so leaves absolutely no protectant on the surface whatsoever ! It can't as there are no ingredients in it to enable it to do so.
SRP is a very very low cut polish and contains fillers which when polishing makes swirling less obvious. But it's because is filling the swirls rather than removing them. Result is is that when the polish is removed by washing the vehicle or rain the swirls become obvious again.
There is a thread here somewhere that explains the difference between a polish and a wax or sealant .
If we were to take a vehicle that has been waxed and polish it with SRP the SRP would remove any wax applied.
It's that low a cut its often used as a paint cleanser .

Now that you have told me this I will not use SRP on the top of resin unless I feel it needs to be cut back.
Thanks for the advice

Sorry if I am being thick, Am I correct in thinking That after putting Autoglym super Resin on I need to seal it with something else?Confused.... SRP is Super Resin Polish.....
There is another Autoglym product called Extra gloss protection..
The latter is a sort of sealant. It does have some protection but it doesent last very long unfortunately.

Thanks for that Charlie.Super Resin Polish is just that a polish. So after either using is as a paint cleanser of a light polish yes you should wax or seal the surface..
No such thing as thick my friend it's just understanding the vast array of products and it's so easy to get confused.
I grew up being called thick but now they call it dyslexic. Mmmmmm

Not sure how it can bead but maybe it alters the way rain sits as the surface has become slicker ??This seems to suggest that it seals and protects, I know that rains always beads when I have used Super Resin Polish.

In you link it says under Cons how the product fills ... Again this may explain why water is sheeting off ?
Let's be honest here SRP aid dead old fashioned today though it still can be a viable and useful product. Just outdated by modern polishes.
This is water beading on a waxed surface.
This picture shows the results of using water less products. Note the swirling and light scratches.
Paint corrected using Menzerna polishes. Japanese paint is very soft so light cut polishes are the order of the day.
Another swirled panel..
Corrected.
Putting waterless products on any surface that has not been cleaned and rubbing them around will create a cutting paste. That paste will inflict the damage to whatever surface you are cleaning. The result will be exactly the same as in the pictures above..
Hi Charlie
I don't buy dark cars because I don't like swirl marks, I know they are still there on light colours but you don't see them the same.
How many times can you do this type of correction without making the lacquer coat too thin, I it depends so just an average if possible.
Looks good by the way.
