Thats a good idea m8. I had just washed the car the other day and within minutes it was dusty.
The only problem you might end up doing it all the time plus round my way the neighbours would probably point and shout at the weirdo dusting his car. lol:lol:

Looks like something I need! Flaming pollen covering the day within hours of washing, grrrr!

there really good, and you dont need to make alot of contact with the car either as the static can lift the dirt

But does it not create a static charge on the car surface thus attracting more dust?

I was going to get one of these when I started out with my huge order from Autopia. But then I read on various forums that most people didn't seem to like them because they thought it would cause scratches. So I didn't bother.
I do have the mini OXO duster which I use on my interior.

^if you push it hard against the surface then like most things it could scratch, but i find if you glide it over the surface it just lifts the dust off, this gentle way will cause less swirls than doing a QD imo
ps of course this is only good for surface dust
I have a few of the OXO Mini car duster now in stock which will be added tomorrow to the site all being well.
It comes with a carrying case and will cost £9.95
I also have the Cobra duster on the site which sells at £4.99

Apparently the ones Megs sell actually work better the dirtier they get?
