JACKSON, MO  (KFVS) - Makers of Rejuvenate 15-minute Wash and Wax Kit say you don't need water and in that short amount of time you can wash and wash your dirty car! My tester, Kyle Aufdenberg, is a car buff---make that a Mustang lover. We're both so skeptical about this product though. We're not touching his wheels. Instead, we'll clean up our news car. Sorry, boss! Hey, if it works though, no need for apologies, right?

"I'm noticing it does work. It'd be a quick touch-up, but after you spray it on, it leaves streaks. You have to buff it," said Kyle.

The car looks cleaner, but when we simply run a dry cloth over it, there's not much difference between that and the right side of the car we sprayed with Rejuvenate.

"You still need a good scrub brush."

However, this product redeems itself a bit when we use it on bugs. After all it says it eliminates those, too.

"Well, that came off pretty easily."

But so does regular water and soap. As predicted, Kyle and I know you just can't replace old-fashioned elbow grease for a true, wash and wax shine. Still, Rejuvenate has at least two advantages: it's portable and a quick fix.

"If you're out on the road and a bird drops on your car, you don't' have a wet cloth with you, you can just pull this out, spray it on and go."

So, throw it in the trunk when you're in a jam and want the wheels to look nice, but otherwise, grab the bucket or head back to the car wash.

"Considering all that, I'd give it a 'D."

Overall, we're gonna cruise past this $10 dollar product in most cases, and give the 15 minute Rejuvenate Wash and Wax kit a 'D' on this Does it Work test.
