Sounds good. Anything that can keep the rims clean is a plus.

Of course I would use it on the whole car. I just meant the Evo rims are a pain to keep clean.

what's a pain to keep clean is this white car of mine. you're worried about getting brake dust on the rim, how about brake dust on the body itself. at least a black car can hide most of it. i knew it was a pain to keep and clean a white car but i didn't know it was that bad.

this rejex stuff i will definetly try though.

Just did my car with Rejex yesterday.

Gave the car the usual Dawn wash to strip wax and dried it using a water blade and towel.

The Rejex directions say to use a cloth for application. I used a piece of 100% cotton terry towel. Next time I'll either dampen it first or use a regular foam wax applicator, dampened. The Rejex goes on in a very thin layer that's hard to see until it dries to a haze--which it does quite quickly. With the dry towel applicator there were times when a dry part of the applicator removed the hazed Rejex as I was applying it. That got better as the applicator got saturated with Rejex.

I used a 100% cotton towel for removal. The instructions say it's effortless--it's not. But it is very easy--about like Meguiars NXT. The results, so far, are impressive. The finish feels very slick and is very shiny--I'd honestly describe it as "liquid", something I've never been tempted to do with other waxes and polishes.

Only time will tell if it really lasts 6-8 months and keeps bugs from sticking, but so far I see little downside. It costs a little more than NXT, and requires ordering online, but it looks great and is about as easy to use as NXT.

Here are some pics.

BTW, e-tackle.com has Rejex for $12/bottle + shipping.

THIs stuff is good. I use it on the Learjet and it seems to keep the exhaust from sticking to the surface. it is kind of expensive though.
btw, they say that you can put it over your wax too, so why take the wax off?
it is good to keep the bugs from sticking in the summer time too. also pretty good for cleaning exhaust stained parts.

It's supposed to be more durable when it's applied directly to the finish than if it's applied over other waxes or polishes.
