Time will certainly tell.

That's why the right thing to do is to properly prep the car when applying any new type of product, hence the use of clay and and the other products he used.
If you are gonna put a topper wax on, it needs to go ontop of the sealent/synthetic. There are a lot of people who have success and like this. I'll sometimes top zaino/nxt, etc w/ something like p21s.

It sounds like this would definitely be a no no over carbon fiber as carbon fiber constantly out gassess.

I just bought a new Zymol shampoo and WOW it worked really great. I put another coat of RejeX on my tips and side mirrors. OMG I can't believe this. It is very easy to use, you wipe it once, its all gone! I think I will do the whole car tonight if I have the mood

you are right, it should not be applied over wax. Most Polymers won't even bond unless they are on top a clean surface.
I didn't know CF let out gases, esp since most the CF you see these days has a clear coat on top.
learn something new everyda.

Regarding carbon fiber, it does out gas. I had to have my hood baked for days in the body shops oven to eliminate as much of this as possible. However, I was explained by the shop that if the hood was left out in the sun alot that it would continue to outgass which would inturn would cloud the finish.

I had to travel to a wedding last night and we drove Nicole’s 330. Anyway on the ride we were discussing how clean her car still looks (Garaged both work and home) even after a week in looks spotless. Then she asked if I had told "My internet car buddies" about her accident. I started to laugh and said no I completely forgot about it. Last Saturday I washed, clay bared, washed and the RejeX'ed her car. Well on Monday she went to work and did her usual routine stop by Starbucks at Crystal Cove on the way into her office in NPB. Well when she was getting out of her car to go into her office. She had placed her Starbucks cup up on top of the roof of the car to free her hands in order to get her purse, bag etc. well as she puts it down and she takes her hand away the freakin' cup starts sliding down the SLICK roof tumbling to her feet. She said I can't believe how slippery my car is. She called me at work with this story thinking it was 
even though she got coffee all over her shoes. So a week later the finish is still so incredibly slippery I told her to be careful tomorrow.

Has anyone experienced some hazing from using Rejex? I see some streaky hazing on the hood. Any ideas on how to fix it from your guys that are more experienced? I think the surface was completely clean...I carefully washed the car with blue Dawn prior to applying Rejex.
Thanks,
Thanks,
