Is Meguiar's products contain silicon?
Are you asking about silicon (element, in its silicon dioxide form, also known as sand), or silicone (a synthetic compound made of siloxane molecules)?
I do believe that all those products say, "body shop safe." Hence, no silicones.
That's assuming the OP is not referring to 'sand'.

@OP:
•Sounds to me that you are suggesting that
there are "good", as well as "bad" silicones?
•Do you want to know if Meguiar's uses any of
the "bad kinds" of silicone in any of its products?
Anyway...
{From Meguiar's spokespersons/chemists/formulators:}
"All the raw materials we use are completely safe, and will not damage the surface they are formulated to be used on. Any additional information regarding our formulas or ingredients we use is proprietary information and can not be shared".
And from a Mike Phillips article:
..."unless you're getting your car ready to be painted:
as in you're just about to push the car or drive the car
into a paint booth to have fresh paint sprayed onto it...
it really doesn't matter. Silicone is inert, it wont hurt anything".
Also from Mr. Phillips:
"In the big picture of life, sometimes you just have
to place your trust in the name on the bottle".

And told me that I can not use a product (SONAX ProfiLine Nano paint protect)

To after using alcohol to strip paint from Silicon
Huh?
:laughing: That's what I was thinking!
OP, with respect, it sounds like you are being fed BS.
Almost all detailing products contain silicone in one form or other. None of the products you mentioned are designed to "fill" scratches. They all contain polishing oils and other carrier ingredients that can act as fillers, but that's not their intended purpose.
Just about any polish or compound has a slight ability to fill (i.e. it leaves a tiny bit of something behind), hence why some people like to do wipe downs with IPA / Eraser etc after polishing to remove polishing oils (potential fillers) and check the true condition of the paint.
