How to keep dust off?

The day after I wash my Car, EVERY TIME. I get a fresh coat of dust on it. Even after I wax it. How do I get the dust off without having to re-wash it? I have heard of a california duster before. And also a car cover. But I dont want to buy a car cover. Help please.

So it works and doesn't scratch the paint?

I use this stuff any time I get dust on my car. It comes as a concentrate, so it should last a long time. I also purchased this with the spray bottle so I know how much water to add.

I actually just used this on my car yesterday as I had a fine film of dust from the salted roads we have here.

If you use it properly, it won't scratch. Probably .0001% of people actually do though.

What you want is a waterless wash product.

I started off with a California Duster and I wasn't using it right.

I switched to the waterless wash. I like Meguires, it's easy to use and can find it OTC.
