redmist is a spray i cant see how it does that great of a job does the water bead of it well i just want something that keeps water of it well and is at a good price and easy to use.

It's a spray sealant. Works really well, Defiantly worth the money. Yeh makes the water bead too. What wax do you use?

Chemical guys Mirror finish sealant is what i use, its awesome, easy to apply and remove.
Bang plenty of wax on top then use Dodo Redmist after washes to keep it looking tip top and keep the water beading off.

Polishing is something you do once or twice a year as effectively eash time you do it you are removing a few microns of paint.
Once detailled properly just wash the car correctly and keep adding wax (as often as you want) and spraying with red mist to keep it beading.

okay so the selaent doesnt have nothing to dso with beading really just gives it a good mirror finish. okay mate so not so much polish as much wax as i want though. any ideas of a good low priced wax my car is silver icase that helps and say if i did decide to get the dodo juice light fanrastic would it be the right choice as my car is silver and is it worth the money thanks

Well i would use PoorBoys natty paste wax (http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wax/poorboys-nattys-paste-wax/prod_80.html) on your car if your just beginning to clean the car properly. Then a coat of Red Mist on top and your onto a winner.

Well i have just used the dark colour version and it has came out tops. Leave it to cure for about 10-15 mins and buff off using a PB plush towel.

okay thionk im going to get that wax and the dodo juice red mist. so basicly i will wash the car thoroghly then use the chemical guys selant then use say 2 coats of that wax just for extra protection maybe more?? then dodo juice red mist. does that sound like a good process to get my car to a mirror shine and keep the water beading?

Well i use a glaze aswell as the above and i get a pretty good shine in the middle of winter. We'll see how good it is in the summer.
I put 3 layers of wax on my car, but its all about personal preference, i'll be out tomorrow topping that up

Yeh that sounds a good plan, then next time you wash the car all you need to do is dry it then some red mist and it will come up a treat. 2 coats of wax is plenty I do 2 coats of wax to make sure I haven't missed any bits. then a spray with red mist. gives a really good shine :y:
