Re: Any recommondation on Rejex
I have it on my car and it looks great. Easy to put on (I spread it with my bare hands) and a little bit of elbow grease to take off (use microfire towels). I have the base black and it has a deep shine. When this coat wears off I'm going to try a good carnuba wax to see if there is a difference, but right now I'm happy with the result. I get lots of compliments and the car is really easy to wash dirt off of especially bugs and brake dust. If nothing else use rejex on your windows and your wheels (rims only) as its definitely worth the time savings.

Plan to apply rejex immediately after pick up my MY06 997 in a few weeks. Any comment, recommandation, tips, etc. Thanks
Before you apply the Rejex, strip the paint surface of any residual wax, shipping coatings, etc. with a good wash with a dish washing detergent like Dawn. You want the Rejex to bond to the paint, not to the wax on the paint. This will extend the useful life of the coating to 6-9 months.
Since the car is new, there will be little embedded debris in the paint, so Claying the surface won't hurt, but may not be necessary.
The key to getting a good Rejex coating is to do the application in the shade, with a surface temp & air below 85? F. Rejex goes on and off very easily, no buffing is necessary, but it is critical to let the car sit for 12 hours (overnight) in the shade, to allow the material to cure.
Be sure to coat the insides of your wheels with Rejex (you will probably have to take them off, and clean them with a stronger cleaner to get the cosmoline and other residue off). You will be glad you went to the extra effort, as the insides of the wheels will stay much cleaner than if you just let the go.
Also give your windshield a good coating of Rejex, so that bug splats will be minimized.

Re: Any recommondation on Rejex
Just ordered some Rejex from bumperplugs, it's on special this month! My new Carrera 4 Cab arrives in Nov. I was thinking of washing it with Adams Car Wash followed by Adams Butter Wax and then maybe Adams Brilliant Spray Glaze and THEN the Rejex but it sounds like not in that order?
Maybe Car Wash first, then Rejex, then Butter Wax then Brilliant Spray Glaze??
Thanks.

Re: Any recommondation on Rejex
Before you go and buy all that other stuff, see what you think about the car once its had the rejex on. I've been told that there is no point to adding wax to rejex as it won't adhere very well and likewise if you add wax before you add rejex, the rejex won't bond to the paint well.

He sells Rejex, my bottle is on its way.
I know someone who tried it and says it makes an incredible shine. You have to let it cure for 12 hours after away from the elements. There is a whole page article on the above website about Rejex. I have Midnight Blue which is difficult to dry. I love the glossy look though especially on a cloudy day... Go Porsche

Re: Any recommondation on Rejex
What a WEIRD choice for a name!
I thought the product was mainly a bug-jerky repellant. Went to the site and found out it's supposed to have an incredible shine. Why would they use a name which doesn't emphasize that too?
"Hey the car looks gorgeous! Whatta Shine! What is that stuff?"
"It's called 'Reject.' Isn't it 'baaaaaad?'"

Re: Any recommondation on Rejex
Name is indeed a bit odd - probably because the product was originally intended as an anti-corrosion coating for US Military applications 
. I'm planning on trying it here in the UK due to all the rain we tend to get (and because I'm lazy and hate the idea of spending ages cleaning wheels etc).
See the website for details. CorrosionX home page
