Red Mist is more of a spray sealant. SN hybrid is as it says - a hybrid between sealant and wax.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Mine with SN Hybrid and then a Red Mist pass is very good. I can then get away with a wash and Red Mist.  :wink:

Cleaned your car since JKM Stealth.  :wink: :laugh:

Managed to clean it on Sunday. Simple snowfoam and 2BM was enough. The FK1000P held up well. Still beading and sheeting well. Once I get the Vreds off and the PS2s back on, I'll sort the tar spots on the rims too.

Also spent a couple of hours on Saturday sorting out the front upper grille. Just gotta sort out the lower grille and the fog grilles.

I'd have cleaned it the previous weekend but it decided to snow again!

a far better alternative to red mist is chemical guys hybrid h7. its just awesome stuff.

spray it onto a microfibre, 1 or 2 sprays per panel, spread around the panel, buff with another microfibre.

i use it after every wash, trust me on this one, ive tried about a dozen or so.
