Thanks Syd. I take a lot of pride in the way the boat looks. Sounds like Sean's got some work to do!

Wow... Doug, That looks great! I have been using Dupont Foam Pad Polishing Glaze then 1 coat of Liquid Colinite and then 2 coats of Colinite paste wax. Once a month I'm giving the topsides a quick go over,the hull looks good all year. Does the rejex last all season? Brian 1986 Bertram 33 FBC Mercruisers Seahorse Ellisville Harbor, Ma

I used to use the Colinite wax but the Rejex worked better and lasted longer for me. I still use the Colinite cleaner. Buzz

Yes. The rejex lasts all year. I put 2 coats on over a 2 day period. The boat looked better taking the shrink wrap off than 95% of the boats in my marina look when they're all waxed up. I put a couple of extra coats on the sides near the velocijet and on the transom. What I like about the rejex is that it doesn't let the black streaks get behind the wax and into the gel coat. You just wipe them right off. I've been using this stuff for 4 seasons now. I'll never use anything else. Back in 2005 I went over the whole hull with 3M's Finesse It II with a machine. Then I used a Machine Glaze from Meguires to seal the gel coat. Finally, I put 2 coats of rejex on by hand. Now I just wash the boat and apply the 2 coats of rejex by hand. It takes me 2 hours to do the entire hull (on and off).

As Doug knows, I started using ReJex last year above the rub rail. I'll swear by the stuff too. So Doug, I'm hauling on June 9 to do the bottom. You are more than welcome to come down and help me with doing Rejex below the rub rail. I'll buy....Oh question. I usually do a cleaner/wax and then apply the Starbrite Teflon. Do you usually do the cleaner/wax and apply Rejex? I found after you use it once, it is basically a reapplicaton of Rejex. Gene Dugan Boca Raton, Fl. "Nauti Marie" 1989 33 FBC
