Vetteness - I see you live in Tampa, I'm in New Port Richey. Depending on where in Tampa your located I'm probably no more than 30 or so minutes away. I have several different types of quick detailers here at the house including Megs, Mothers, Zaino, Wolfgang, Eagle One and Black Magic. If you'd like, contact me via PM and you could take a ride over next weekend and try them out and see which one you like the best.

BTW, what are you currently using for a wax or sealant ?

Chemically, there is very little difference, I've heard. Even though I am a Meguiars guy, I have always thought Mothers Detailer did the best job--at least on my red '97 and 2000 Trans Ams. The C6 is black and I can't say I see much difference between Meg's Speed Detailer, Final Touch, Nxt Gen detailer, or Penzoil's Platinum Detailer--just the Platinum I got for $2! I'm having a hard time finding Mothers, but haven't needed any for a while. You go through a lot with black.
