Last year on this forum (or maybe it was Roadfly??? can't remember) there were rave reviews of the Zaino Bros. products, so I ordered the whole kit even before taking delivery of my car. Then there were praises for Rejex on wheels, so I ordered that as well. I am getting ready to wax my car for the first time and was going to use the Zaino system for the body and Rejex for the wheels, however, I have also read that many people love using Rejex on the body as well. So, I was wondering whether there were any people that have tried both Zaino and Rejex on the body and what their experience has been.......which one do you prefer?

Thanks in Advance,

You'll ge one million different suggestions, but........In my opinion, Zaino is way too time consuming. Good product, but takes hours and hours for multiple coats. As for the wheels...Klasse all in one(German product) for the wheels. Easy-on and long-lasting. Never use Carnauba type product on wheels. The heat will turn the wax yellow and will lead to a mess to remove. Just one guy's opinion.

I noticed that PakShak is selling (close out they say) 16 oz bottles of Rejex for $15.95. I haven't really shopped for it so don't know if that is a good deal or not, and whether or not shipping negates the deal.

I use Klasse AIO also - entire car - head lights, tail lights, trim, windows (every where except the door seal area) Wipe on wipe off - takes about 30 min. Very easy to apply!

The best wax for your car is the one that is actually on your car

I use Zaino on my Black Saphire paint and love it...! Deep shine that goes on pretty easy, once you get the hang of it. Goes on even easier as you get more coats of it on the car.
