I've used Rejex several times, but never on the entire car. Only used it on the "nose" so the bugs come off easier ... and they really do. Most come off with just a spray from the hose.
The last time, I went over the entire nose with Minzerna Final Polish to get the old waxes and such off, plus to get rid of any fine scratches. Used my Porter Cable. Then the Rejex. I really like it, just never have done the entire car with it.
The bottle I have I got several years ago from one of the Forum vendors ... possibly AugoGeek ... can't remember. It's not expensive either. And one good feature is that if you get it on the rubber, it doesn't leave a white residue ... just makes the rubber look better.

As I was applying the product to the roof panel and halo area, I was trying to be careful not to get it on the rubber, but did anyway. I was expecting it to turn white, but it never did. As you said, it just made it look better!
Good stuff.

I just did my 2013 with RejeX two weeks ago. After washing with Dawn I clayed the horizontal surfaces and then applied the RejeX, two coats. Absolutely phenomenal shine which everyone comments about.

Thank you!
I ordered it online from their website. I've never seen it in any of the auto parts stores anywhere. I'm thinking it's because Rejex is for more than just cars...it's for airplanes, boats, RV's, trucks...anything with a painted surface you want protected from the elements, bugs, tree sap, etc. Somehow, all that superior protection produces a superior shine.

I used it on my Black SUV and it's Great.
Doesn't really matter what the color is, it's Great.
It's a Paint Sealant only and needs to bond to the Paint.
As others mentioned, clean the paint of all waxes etc.
Prep and get your paint the way you want it first, polish it etc, free of Swirls etc... then apply Rejex.
Let it dry, wipe it off and keep it out of the elements over night, and in the morning it will look even better than when you wiped it off
Unbelievable shine and lasting Protection.
And Seriously, just like it says, Nothing sticks but the Shine.
It's all I use, but on the Metallic it's so shiny, the light reflects so much it somewhat hides the flake in the paint.
When I use it on my 09 CRM Coupe, the next day I detail it with 303 Speed Detailer and it makes the color really pop as it's more optically clear.
Couldn't be easier and a little goes a long way.
Excellent on the wheels too, making them easy to clean with just a wipe with a dry cloth

I only do the Vette once a year in the Spring, but it does stay inside when not driving it.
My DD stays outside and last time I used Rejex was 5 months ago.
It could use another coat now but still beads and shines like crazy.
In my experience it lasts longer than anything else I've used.
With Rejex, apply it, wipe it off, and the results are always the same, Simply Great

A lot depends on conditions how long it lasts, and like you say you'll have yours outside.

That sounds good. Yeah kinda sucks it has to stay outside. Im young an still at home. But it ls stored in the winter thank god. I usually do 4 complete details a year on it. With a wax about every 3rd wash
I usually use all adams products. There sealant usually last about about 4-5 months depends on the weather.
Thanks for the info. Ill deffinately try it out!

I would love to tape a hood off into 4 sections on a quality paint job. Then apply 4 different quality waxes, and then see who can tell the difference and/or which wax was used where. Buy a decent quality wax....use it correctly....enjoy !!!

, from top to bottom, wheels, black trim, etc. Usually do 2 applications, once in Spring and once in Fall. Then upkeep with with quick detail spray. But honestly, for me, one application will last the entire year. Car is garaged.
