mild thread hijack:
is there really a difference between Meg Final Inspection (is that #37 I seem to think?) and the Meg "Quick Detailer" ? -- they both look the same, feel the same, smell the same. Is there any advantage of one over the other?
also -- should I keep an extra bottle of Z6 in the car to clean off bird poo, water spots, etc? That's what I've always done with Meg QD, but now that I'm a Zaino guy for the C6, I'm thinking I should use Z6 instead. Won't the heat of the summer kill my Z6 if left in the car?

After some research, it looks like there is a *slight* difference in FI and Quick Detailer. Here's Mike Phillips explanation of it:
"Quik Detailer and Final Inspection are both what are referred to as quick detailers, (note the spelling of quick in both cases), that is they are mist and wipe products that remove light dust and restore gloss.
Quik Detailer is in the Consumer Line
Final Inspection is in the Professional Line
Different product lines sell through different distribution channels and are marketed at and formulated for different customers.
Final Inspection is unique in that it is wax and silicone free and safe for use on fresh paint and also for use in a fresh paint or body shop environment.
You as an enthusiasts can choose to use either, but if you want to use a quick detailer in a body shop environment then you want to stick with Final Inspection as it contains no ingredients that will interfere with the adhesion of fresh paint.
Neither of these two products are spray-on waxes and spray-on waxes are completely different animals than mist and wipe products also generically called, quick detailers."
I think you would be good keeping a bottle of Z6 in the car. I keep two bottles of Z6 around (one full strength and one 50/50 with distilled water).

I always carry a bottle of Z6 in my trunk and have never had a problem with it. The main thing is that you remove the bird doo right away whether it is with water or Z6 is not a big deal.
I have found that Sonus Spritz and Four Star Gloss Enhancer both work quite well on any sealant. That said, I would stick in the line of the protectant whenever possible to take advantage of products built to work well together.
