    I've used Rejex paint sealant on other cars before with outstanding results, but I'm a little concerned that the use of one of these polymer sealants like Zanio, Klasse or Rejex might cause problems for any painting that needs to be done in the future (like a stone chipped front fascia).
    Does anybody have any experience or firsthand knowledge of this? Should I just stay with a good quality wax or are the sealants safe to use?
    Also will the lubricants (like Griot's Speed Shine) that you use with a cleaning clay cause similar problems?

    Any of those polymer sealants can be removed with simple dishwashing detergent.

    I'm sure the body shop thoroughly cleans the paint with something much stronger than that before beginning a job, so I wouldn't worry.

    Any reputable bodyshop will use a wax and grease remover before prep and paint in order to prevent fisheyes, etc.
