Rejex versus Zaino
After being loyal to Zaino for a few years, I tried some rejex this afternoon at the suggestion of a friend. Car is basalt black. All I can say is Man O Man, I am a rejex guy from now on. Start to finish, I had her done in 30 minutes. WAY easier than the whole Zaino process, and she looks like a black beauty. Plus, this stuff is supposed to last around 5 months between applications...sweet!
I know some say black is hard to keep clean, but I find that even when dirty, a black porsche is ...well...a black beauty. No other color that I would rather have on this bad boy.

How did you apply it? What was the time between coating a panel and buffing it?

I did the whole car with the Rejex in about 15 minutes, starting with hood, each door, and then rear once done with rear, I started removing from the hood whole process 30 minutes now she sits in the garage for 10 hours to "cure," and then I'll post pics in the driveway tomorrow It went on so easy, and came off even easier...no dry residue in any cracks. I even coated the wheels with it yesterday, and they are like glass now.

Meguiar's NXT seems to do the same job. Klasse is great too and the red bottle dose some cleanup too. I tend to use Rejex though.

This is the first I've heard of Rejex, sounds good.
I've used Klasse, Zymol and NXT. IMO, the NXT finish goes away the quickest. I've always read good things about Ziano, but never tried it as it seemed pretty labor intensive. I'm currently using Zymol Carbon on my Basalt Black.
Anxious to see what a Rejex car looks like, please post some pics asap.

We've carried Rejex for years, for one reason: it works. No ridiculous claims. It's not a wax. It won't fix your paint. Get your paint right, then apply. Do it again in a few weeks, then every few months.
I was a believer only after I tried the stuff, now we get caseloads in the warehouse and offer it to others, below list. It's a sealant. My '04 C4S Cab has paint that looks like it left the factory a week ago, and it's five years old. Nothing has ever been on it but Rejex.
For any groups that may want to get a group purchase together to one address, just email me. We carry the 16oz bottles and can arrange a discounted shipping package for groups of five or more.

Been a Rejex fan for about four years now.
Get your finish "right," then Rejex is all you need. Great for wheels, too.

Here are some pics after the detail was done ...I am very pleased with the finish. It's like glass. Note the reflection of the floor...righteous!!

that's the other awesome aspect of this stuff....hardly any. I have a 16 oz bottle, and if I used a tenth of it I'd be shocked a nickel sized squirt on the MF at a time, and it rubbed in easily let it sit for 15 minutes, and it buffed off with another MF . The longer the car has been sitting in the garage, the more "slippery" it is getting, and the finish appears to be getting even more glossy.

I've been a satisfied Zaino user for 10 years. COLE 328, what's the biggest improvement ;application process or shine? Thanks
