Stoner makes great stuff, my only concern there would be the wipes grinding the bug spatter into the paint and causing scratches. Thats an issue with anything made into a wipe that is used on the paint.
Honestly I wouldn't automatically discount Armor All as a brand. Even their protectant is water based and actually is a very decent tire shine. I've seen those RedBull branded wipes. I carry in my trunk a bottle Spraway Quick Detailer:

I like that because it foams, so it will sit there on the bird poop or bug or whatever and foam a little and loosen it up, then I carry a high pile microfiber towel and "lift" it off the paint vs wiping it onto the paint. I've had the same can in my trunk for years and have never had an issue, even with the car sitting outside in the summer for a week like at the beach etc.

I also carry my own glass cleaner, scrubber and squegee that does a much better job. I use Koch Chemie Glass Cleaner, an autofiber scrub ninja MF pad and a small squeegee from amazon. Works much better than gas station squegees. The BiltHamber traceless doesn't work with a squeegee.

Same lol. I don't sweat bugs, I will wash them off when I get home and my car is PPFed, but bird bombs I always clean right off.
