Should I Mix Redline Fluids?

I've never used Redline products before, but I'm considering it.

What if I buy 2 litres of Redline 75W90 for the differential. I'll have 1/2 a bottle left over. Can I pour that in the tranny along with 2 litres of MT90? Can I mix Redline MT90 with 75W90 in the tranny?

Otherwise, I'll have 1/2 a bottle of 75W90 sitting around and 1/2 bottle MT-90 sitting around.

It says on the redline site that you can use the 75W90 in the tranny, but I wouldn't mix them.

Save the 1/2 bottles for topping of your tranny & diff after 15,000 miles, which is part of regular maintenance. There isn't any reason why the oils won't last as long outside the tranny as they do inside it.
