I just last week put a coat of NXT 2.0 on top of a coat of Rejex and it looks awesome. Not sure of all the bonding and how long it last and all that good stuff but the results are very impressive.

rejex recommends that you do not apply it over a wax or polish. inhibits adhesion and will reduce the life of the rejex coating. using NXT afterwards is okay but best way is multiple coats of rejex over time. me, I use NXT on the body and rejex on the nose, wheels and exhaust tips.

All of the waxes today are great. You can't go wrong with any of them. NXT is easy to find and works awesome. Price is perfect. It's a win win.

Rejex here. Used NXT and it's great stuff. Rejex just lasts a lot longer.

Rejex is really a good sealer and use wax over it when going to a showing

I used nxt for about 4 years and then went to 2.0 and I loved the results...but I tried Zaino and to fool all of my friends in the garage I put Z2 into a Nxt 2.0 bottle...so they all bought 2.0...but they all say...Why does yours shine better than mine? And I just say "I think its operator error"....

I use Rejex on my C6 and NXT2 on my STS.

They are both very easy to use, with NXT2 a bit cheaper and easier to find.

The shine on both cars look pretty stunning. I cannot vouch for which of the 2 lasts longer, though many say Rejex will outlast NXT2.

You can't go wrong with either. Now as for Zaino............oops, time to go.

I generally use only Rejex on my Corvette, since it is not subjected to the normal rigors of a daily driver. Rejex won't do anything for your paint blemishes, but NXT 2.0 has cleaning additives that help remove micro scratches, swirl marks and lots of other paint related problems. Needless to say, I keep both products on hand but I don't put NXT over Rejex.
Usually, NXT goes on my daily driver that is exposed more to the elements.

I just got a package of C-Magic. Will use that on my Vette this weekend. I don't know what NXT is. Have hears of Zaino and Rejex. Figured that C-Magic is used by the Covervette Museum, so it had to be a good deal. So many products.... All these cars look great.

That's what I was going to say right away but you said it. I guess it depends on what you are trying to do, protect it longer or make it have more bling to it. As a detailer I have so many more steps involved that it's hard to say one or the other, really comes down to what the client wants, typically a longer lasting and easier to clean finish which results in me using Rejex. If I want more of a deeper looking shine I would finish with a carnauba wax as opposed to a sealant. Others have already made some good points as well.
