Safe car duster?
I believe this finally qualifies me as a neat freak, when it comes to my NBP TL. My car is Zaino'd, and I hand wash it every week with Z7. Usually within a couple of days after the wash, a fine layer of dust has settled on the car, even after driving. Do you guys have a preferred auto duster, one that won't scratch or swirl my paint?
Thank you for forcing me to become a perfectionist when it comes to maintaining my tL.
j/k
P.S. Zaino is wonderful!

Thanks for the input! It sounds like the consensus supports the California Car Duster (dry). I've heard of this before but wasn't sure how good or bad it was. I certainly need it to satisfy this new, obsessive need to keep my black car PERFECTLY clean at ALL times. Pass the Paxil, please!

You're not using it on a semi-wet car are you? It's not meant for that.....just for dusting off dry pollena and dust.

You're supposed to put the California Car Duster on a sheet of newspaper for a day before using it the first time. This gets rid of the excess parafin (or whatever waxy substance it uses). After that, you can use it whenever. It shouldn't leave any residue or streaks if you do this.

Oh god no, why did you have to show me that site?! Actually thank you very much, I'm already finding useful information after surfing there for the first time!
I bought my CCD and am letting it air out, as per instructions. I'll try it on the wife's car first.

Oh by the way...as far as the CCD, you can only use it on dirt that has NOT settled yet. Which means after you come home after a long day, dust your car down before the dirt has a chance to settle into the car in which you would need to wash the car to get it off.
