Anyone use REJEX car polish?
http://www.corrosionx.com/rejex.html
This regular came in a couple weeks ago telling me about this new stuff he had tried on his "wive'" BMW 335i, apparently the polish is 1micron thick, shines better than any wax, lasts for 6mo-1yr and was designed by the military to keep the burns from helicopter exhausts from sticking.
I'm considering ordering some, but don't know anyone who has used it except for him, and he hasn't taken the bimmer out since. He says that you can use it on wheels to keep brake dust from sticking, and that nothing with stick to the car (bugs, pollen, etc.). There is a catch, if you have waxed your car you need to remove any wax you have put on the car, he said you can do that wish dish soap.
Anyone ever use it?

It's just a typical sealant. Everything that can be said for that, can be said about any other artificially produced sealant.
Sealers typically last longer than cheaper waxes, but they don't offer the depth of color that a good carnuba offers. A lot of the comparisons they make are in comparison to cheaper over the counter waxes. A high quality, professional grade wax will last as long as that will, and give better depth. Good waxes are also easier to apply in my opinion.
I'm on my 3rd high quality wax in a year (just trying different brands in order to choose one I like) and I think I've settled on one. If you really want to put a quality product on your car, look in to Lusso Oro carnuba. It's been on my S2000 for about 4 months now, and water beads like I just put it on yesterday.
You might actually be fine with a sealer though, your car is one of the light colors right?
:edit: Oh yeah, guess why you have to wash your car with dish soap before you apply it. It's because if there's any carnuba on your car, that stuff can't stick to it. What's that tell you about carnuba?

It's silverstone, so yeah. But I guess that anything on the surface could prevent this stuff from sticking properly.
Unbre4k4ble, after 2 years, how do you like it?

It's good stuff. I like it very much. It really seems to last, as well as make it easier to clean off dirt and grime and such.

i've never tried it but the folks at autogeek rec. applying the klasse sealant/cleaner first then a good carnuba to get the best of both worlds. Super long lasting protection but the deep color of carnuba. Have you tried that (i'll be doing something similar on the next detail)?
