Question California Car Duster

Would you ever put this to your car? I normally just use Zaino every couple weeks (wash Z7?, Z2, spray Z6? forgot the numbers) but I want to remove thedust sometimes.

Smile It's okay, but make sure that.............

you barely touch the surface of your paint to be on the safe side. When you first buy it, make sure you wrap it up in newspaper for a few days to get that parafin wax off. Enjoy!

I've had 3 of them over the past 4+ years, I have had no problems with it hurting the finish or anything

I've used it on my TL since I bought it 2+ years ago

Same here, but I only use it if there is a extremely light coating of dust.

I've only used mine on the inside of the car, never the outside. It's great for getting dust out of hard to reach areas like the air vents.

I agree with the previous posts, but ... if it has rained at all since I last washed it, I don't like using the duster.

It's aight. But only to get rid of a light layer of dust.

And get the small one for the interior. That works good.

Great. I'll get a new one. I have a really old old old one from years back when they came in red. Used to use it on my Caravan .

You can get them at Target as well for about $11 I think. I use those Pledge or Swiffer wipes for the interior, but maybe I should get the small one so I can get the threads into my air vents.

Have it, use it, love it. For small amounts of particulate dust it works wonders.

You can get it from Target where it's sold under the "Baja Sol" brand name.

I use the California duster when I have a light coat of dust on the car. Gently go over the car and it picks up all the dust. I use the small one for the inside. Be sure to get the original california duster. It can be ordered online at:

I love mine. I use it daily. The newer ones now come without the Parafin wax. I don't like wrapping it in newspaper for 3 days to unsoak the wax.
