Here's an interesting point though - bead height doesn't necessarily reflect the level of protection on the car. Beading on wax finishes is always higher than on sealant finishes, because waxes expand in the presence of moisture, thus closing their pores and forcing water upwards. Sealants on the other hand are stable in the presence of moisture, so the beads aren't as tall.

Im guessing Beading is when your car is clean and the water is sitting on the
bodywork??
