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.

Wow, that finish with Rejex is just too delicious. 
I just got my bottle of Rejex in the mail. I plan to apply it as soon as this damn rain stops

Most expert detailers say rejex only has a so-so durability. It's a bit of a overhyped product to be honest guys. Ofcourse, it has a pretty good standard but if you want to use a top of the line sealant, Zaino or Poorboy's EX-P is the way to go.

I respectfully disagree on the durability of RejeX. There is no way that wax can compare to the durability of RejeX. Zaino is wax, right? Possibly so called xpert detailers have an axe to grind. After all, RejeX is so easily applied, who needs an expert?

Rejex is an average sealant but it will outlast any wax.

Think of it this way, would you rather have an apple that has spots on it or a clean looking apple?
