Alright , so I want to get the new detailing bag I just got filled to leave in my car. Throw out any thoughts you have on what to stock it with. I don't do mobile details, so I don't need a machine, pads, and polish. First thoughts are some micro towels, glass cleaner, and waterless wash. What else can you guys think of. Here's some pics to give a layout of the bag:

Storage under the main area. Figure this could be a good place to keep a stack of towels

There's straps on each end that have velcro at the top of the bag....not sure what the purpose of those would be

Inside pockets and elastic straps:

I noticed the last two posts mentioned tire shine. Do you just reapply over the dirty wheel? Is carrying it mainly for a quick wet look until you can apply properly?

Since you're leaving it in your car, I'm assuming it's for touch ups and in between washes. If it were me:

Ultima Waterless Wash - works as waterless wash and as QD spray. Can use to clean wheels as well in between.
CarPro PERL - tire shine obviously
Bug/Tar remover - in case you pick up some spots.
ONR at rinseless dilution - window cleaner, interior wipedown, wheel well & tire wipedown
Car scent - I have the Chemical Guy sampler pack. I keep a different scent as I go through them.
Black MF towels for wheels, tires, wells
Other color all purpose for interior wipedown
Plush for paint
Glass towel

I don't know about you, but I put my tire shine on my tires, not wheels. Haha

All joking aside I'd say it's for car shows and meets where you just want a quick gloss at the show. And for those of us in rainy states tire shine wears off very quickly even though the tire hasn't gotten dirty.

Haha yeah that was my fault too much Christmas cheer. That sounds like a better use than what I was thinking people were doing.

Hm, so this would be just to maintain your car on-the-fly?

I'd say waterless wash (which can also be used for windows/glass), apc towels, and perhaps a brush for any spills that may happen
