Do you carry a microfiber and detail spray in your car with you?

I don't know if I am the only one who does this or not, but I was walking out to my car today and saw a smudge on my door in the sunlight. So I grabbed my detail spray and microfiber towel and sprayed and wiped it down. Anyone else do this too?

Yep I have both in my trunk. Its also a good way to avoid letting bugs bake into your paint sitting at work all day.

I just washed it and saw a spot that I didn't wipe down on the lower part of the door. So there wasn't any dust visible.
