I used it and liked it for the most part. Excellent shine...a real difference lasts a good time But I have not used it on my 09 yet. Here is what I am useing now:

1- Mezerna FMJ....doesn't seem to stay slick as long but WOW is it slick!
2- Starbrite Boat Polish/Wax with PTFE...yes beieve me it works and lasts a long azz time.
3- Mequiers NXT Wax. Lasts, shines and easy to use.

Right now I have 2 coats of Starbrite and 2 coats of NXT.

For getting out towel marks and swirls I use Mezerna products.

I used it on the front end and mirror housings on a cross country trip and can absolutely say that the accumulated bugs etc....came mostly off with just the hose spray, very little elbow grease. I have not used it on the entire car though....don't they say it can even be used on glass as well???

I use RejeX on the wheels. I've also used the Starbrite Boat Polish/Wax with PTFE...both work really good but brake dust still sticks to the wheels. I just use soap and water to get it off and it does come off very easy.

Rejex is a polymer sealant, not a true wax. It's an excellent product to be used on wheels as it repels brake dust very well. On paint, it's a matter of preference. For me, it's has too much shine and gloss and it detracts from the "look" of the paint. It almost looks a bit plastic-like. Another alternative that has the best of both worlds, synthetic durability and the depth of a natural carnauba wax, is einszett Glanz. Probably one of the easiest waxes you'll ever use.

But remember, you need to focus more on the prep than on the wax. If your paint isn't properly clayed and polished, no wax will truly bring out the shine and color of you r paint.

Here's a link to an artcile I wrote about proper waxing and prep work:

Here's more info on the einszett Glanz

Hope this helps. We sell rejex as well....

Glad I could help...Also, don't use rejex on the clear bra...it will yellow the film. Use a product that doesn't contain any yellow carnauba or silicones.

nice info Mo...I did like the gloss of Rejex on my 07 White 997S. I did not use it on my 09 C2S. After clay, light polish I tried Griot's Show Car Wax...this was the hardest to remove wax I ever used! Also the car did not have a slick surface. I then went over the car with Mequires NXT and really liked it. After or during this summer I will re-clay and polish and try out Mezerna FMJ on my Guards Red. Thoughts????

I had my boat detiled and used Rejex on it and it did not seem to last very long compared to other products I've used.

I have been using rejex on the wheels and am very pleased with the results. I have also been using it on winter wheels for the minivan and wife's 330 and it has kept them protected from the severe corrosion suffered by earlier rims.
I prefer zaino products for the paint. I do use rejex on the van and bmw which is quick and easyto apply, also does a good job on glass.

As of right now, the only products that I've used for years specifically for clear film is a light polish from zymol called hd-cleanse and a liquid carnauba spray called field glaze.
