Very nice work Andrew, good luck, looks like you do a fantastic job.
BTW, what is Rejex? Can it be used on the windows, plastic, and wheels?

RejeX Polymer Coating - so slick, bugs can't stick!

RejeX was originally developed for the Air Force to keep turbine exhaust gas residue from sticking to aircraft...

RejeX is a thin-film polymer coating designed to provide a high-release surface. This very thin film - less than a micron thick - prevents stains and adhesion of common contaminants such as exhaust, bugs, oil, tree sap, bird droppings, road grime, brake dust, etc. It also makes graffiti easy to remove and can be applied to windshields to repel rain. It's easy to apply and produces a deep, lustrous shine that outlasts the most popular waxes by months.

RejeX contains none of the free silicone oils found in some other products that are known to contaminate paint and cause problems when repainting.

Protects and beautifies painted metal, glass, acrylic, gel coat, fiberglass, glossy plastic and polished metal surfaces.

RejeX is not meant to be used on porous surfaces, highly oxidized painted surfaces, or to fill fine scratches. RejeX can be used over existing wax; however, the duration of protection will be reduced as the softer underlying wax degrades comparatively quickly. There is no reason to wax over RejeX. RejeX leaves a shinier, longer-lasting finish than wax? and the wax can't adhere well to RejeX!

REJEX EARNED MIXED REVIEWS FOR IT'S DURABILITY ON PAINT. IT'S RECOMMENDED FOR USE ON GLASS & PLASTIC AS A WATER REPELLENT & AS A WHEEL SEALANT TO HELP KEEP A HEAVY BRAKE DUST BUILDUP FROM FORMING.
