Detailer spray?

What's a good detailer spray? I read that Optimum No Rinse works real well when diluted any other recommendations?

Adam's is good, Sonax is good, Griot's Garage is good, Zymol is excellent. There are a bunch of really nice products out there.

I use ONR diluted at 1:16 as a detail spray for *light* cleaning. It works great, and is very economical.

Ultima waterless wash concentrate. You get 16 bottles of detailer for less than 20 bucks. And the stuff performs amazing with high lubricity and a great wipe off. Highly recommended. Most other detail sprays are undilutable so you end up paying 5-10 bucks for one bottle when uww let's you pay 15-20 bucks for 16 bottles!!

Been using Griot's Speed Shine off and on for about ten years. Very happy with it. Also tried similar products from Meguiars and Mothers that were acceptable.

Garage
I used to use Griot's Garage Speed Shine and No-rinse car wash. Then to save money and try something new, I tried diluted ONR (2 capfuls to 1 Gallon). I like the ONR better. It seems that the Griot's Garage products would leave a surface that was slick, but not really "dry." In certain conditions, it would collect dust and soot, presumably from static. I have not had the problem with ONR, and I like the shine and the low price.

I think I may try this next:

According to the company, it also works on the interior of aircraft, so it may also work for hard surfaces inside the car.
