I just want to share something with everyone. I bring 45 yrs of maintaining Fiberglass Boats, dealing with some of the most harsh conditions on earth. A few years ago I ran across a product called "Bass Boat Saver". I bought a small bottle at a boat show and used it with great succcess on my 50' sport fishing boat. It kept my gel coat shiny (GREAT UV protection) and made washing much easier at the end of the day. Anyway, I tried it on my 08 BLACK Vert 2 months ago. I spit the front end BELOW the hood ( just in case ) and did my DAILY dusting and spritzing that anyone who has a black vette can understand. NOW, two months later there is a incredible difference between the two ends. I used Rejex on every other part of the car. If you are interested check it out at www.bassboatsaver.com I do NOT own stock in this company just trying to pass on a great product that makes detailig easier to some great people.....

You're right.... worthless without pics you'll just have to take my word for it. And this morning I finally couldn't handle the dull part any more and I HAD to spray some on the other 1/2. I am going to do the complete car this afternoon when the sun moves off my driveway. I will take some pics and send them to you....

Thanks Skipper,
I just bought a gallon of this stuff based on your recommendation. Question, do you put this over wax?
Thanks,
Pat

Yes.... I use it like a detailer. It shines BIG TIME and protects at the same time. Also works grrrreat on my wheels. The brake dust comes right off with water and the wheels dry streak free. Let me know how you like it.
