Anyone used either one?

if you havent used red mist before id suggest either get the tropical version or go for the megs detailer as red mist can be a bit fidly to use as it drys quite quickly and end up patchy on the panel if not worked properly.

Red mist tropical is really good, last for an age as well.

What's the best way to apply red mist. Is it a case of spray the whole car then wipe straight off gently  or do you have to buff.

All I do is spray it on, wait 3-5 secs then buff off. That seems to work fine for me.
