Rating :      Much of the jury's still out, but... - Eugene F. Fama, Jul 02, 2006
Last night I coated my new car with Rejex. It's now at the end of the twelve hour "curing" stage so I thought I'd leave some comments to help people shopping for sealants.
I have zero experience finishing cars. I've always been against the idea of babying a vehicle, but my car is so spanking new that I figure it wouldn't hurt to give the paint some protection and find a way to make all that fresh brake dust easier to swab off on a weekly basis. Rejex seems like stuff that might accomplish these goals.
The car looks great, all the surfaces and angles delineated to full effect. I wouldn't describe the shine as showcar-deep, and wouldn't want it that "wet" anyway, but it's definitely glossier than it was on the car's arrival three weeks ago. I still can't comment on Rejex's durability or how well it protects against bugs and streetcrap; others on the internet have reviewed those traits and I'll chime in as time goes on.
I cleaned the car in detail yesterday and let it hang to dry in the garage for four hours to drain all the cracks. Then I waited for the sun to stop beating on the garage door as the instructions say not to apply in temps over 85 degrees. That evening I swabbed Rejex all over the car with cotton wax applicator pads. I think I might've slathered it on a bit thick because it took a while to dry to the prescribed haze. Once it did, I started wiping it off with soft cotton rags. Sometimes as I was wiping, little areas of sticky residue collected and needed extra elbow grease. Like I say, I might have done something wrong, but the process wasn't as easy as I'd heard. From initial application to final wipedown took about three and a half hours, with the wife grabbing a second towel for a half an hour out of pity.
If I had it to do again I'd maybe put a little less on and extend the drying time. This might lead to a slightly chalkier dried consistency which would cut down on the buffing away of accumulated wax. As it was, I used up about a half a bottle and a few yards of cotton cloth. I also scraped excess out of cracks with Q-Tip type things, which was tedium I probably brought on myself. Next time I'll put it on lighter.
The interesting part of this story will be in a few weeks when we see how water is beading and bugkill is wiping off. But for now, I recommend Rejex with the proviso that it's not as easy a job as some in internet newsgroups make it sound, but it does make the car look great.
