A few Questions for you guys? I have a new detailing spray coming out, so
what would make you move from your current one?
What do you look for in your detailing spray?
Would you prefer 500ml or 1L?

The one thing i love changing is detailing sprays! I always get a different one, they all do what they say on the tin anyway.

The only one i have bought a few times is the clearkote and poorboys spray and gloss. Both superb to use with a drying towel to dry down the car!

The net under the parcel shelf always has a bottle of detailer spray in it  :signLOL:

As previously said, it's important not to confuse spray sealants like Red Mist with QD's. If you try to use Red mist on anything other than a perfectly clean and dry surface you will probably end up with a smeary mess - plus seal in any dust / dirt into your paint. Used properly, it can really add a 'something' to even a recently waxed car, although I tend to use it to extend the life of my LSP after say 2-3 months when I should possibly be considering stripping, prepping and reapplying fresh wax.

....I've heard that about Red Mist before and it's been stopping me from using it so far. It sounds as if it's a bit too dodgy for someone like me to use - My car has 3 coats of Zaino but probably isn't perfect. I bought some from Autoperfection but haven't used it yet - Anyone want to buy my 500ml bottle cheap or should I try it?

IIRC, naughty Taryn sold it to me as a QD.

I agree with what Tarmac_Terrorist Says - however red mist is sold and marketed as a quick detailer with protection, Dodo say its the mother of all Quick Detailers - on the back of the bottle!! So Taryn wasnt naughty as this is how dodo market the product.
I dont think this is out and out a spray sealant such as Zanio its more of a hybrid between the two. The smeary mess refered to is the agressive solvent in Redmist simply having a melting effect on any product underneath and moving it around causing smearing of product.
I do however agree that it can add a certain something but it can be a pain to use sometimes especially when it seems to have more incompatability with certain products more than others.
just my two pence

Don't worry, Jim - No problem with Taryn whatsoever from me - I've absolutely no doubt she offered it to me in good faith. I've anyway now found a new home for my never used bottle of Red Mist with someone who already uses it.

Good to hear your input here on the subject  :drinking:
