Phil@detailersdomain - which wax is good for clear bra ?

i heard that some waxes can make it look yellow and on the white cat that would be a big problem ... also, do you have any tip on how to clean/maintain clear bra ?

REJEX! wont yellow, works great!! i wouldnt use any wax, its a plastic..
(this came recomeded by my clear bra installer, he said NOT to use anything else)

http://www.rejex.com/rejex.html

i recently learned it works good on wheels too, its residue lasts much longer than wax..

rejex is a sealant. i've heard it's pretty good though

to clean, use plexus

for a wax, use something quality and you should be fine. As long as you're applying it correctly, not letting it sweat or leaving it on too long, you should be fine

my detailer used to use Zymol on the clearshield. They switched to premier's PF1 product after recommending its usage on the shield and have been using it since. Not sure what it costs to Zymol, but my detailer seems to like it more on the shield. I personally like how this stuff feels. You can find it on their site www.premiermobilegroup.com

+1 on the PF1 products. I was a huge fan of the plexus / rejex combo for a while until I heard that Plexus can be harmful to the bra....something about drying out the film. The PF1 Crystalline is by far the best sealer I've used on the film so far. Rejex just takes way too long to cure (I think the recommended curing time on the bottle says 12 hrs.) I've been using the Crystalline product for several months now and I'm very happy with the results.
