Anyway I agree, no need to really "clean” it. What I do is every few swipes is just spin it quickly between my two hands, kind of like you are trying to warm your hands.

Mine got to the point it started to leave gummy residue on my Camaro. So I decided it was time to clean it or buy a new one. Did some research and found others said wash it in Woollite. So I bought some and filled the laundry tub with cold water. Let it soak for 48 hours. Rinsed it off in cold water for 10 minutes. Let it dry for 48 hours. Works like new now. Should have seen how much dirt and dust came out of it when I was done with the cleaning process.

Just knock the dust off and when it gets downright filthy just buy a new one, they aren't expensive.
We are talking about a car duster right?

Thanks I guess as soon as mine turns totally black I can do that!

They also have a detailing spray that I use after I get my Camaro washed. Its really good for everything. You can use it all over without worrying about streaks. It really good for us old folks that don't like to do over what we finish the first time. I hope I'm not talking about the same thing.

RSokie, I got Ghost Armor for my radio face and I love it. Worth the price.

And are you going to Fest? A bunch of guys from NW Arkansas and I are all running over there together if you and your Okie clan want to join us

Here is a link to the Adam's Daily Deals .. Todays deal is sweet. I love the smell of there car shampoo .

Also The California Car Duster are pretty cheap . You can find them from $15-20 bucks on line or at Advance Auto . I tried washing mine and it did work but for the little they cost i just bought a new one . 1st Last many years !

Oh My "Team LLT " Head rest arrived today ! Thanks Tim . Post pics later .

3mods going on as we speak..

1- I'm doing the RS halo install this week
2- Bought a Street Scene Front Splitter - A lot cheaper than Stillen could do !!
3-Spraying the lower bumper area like the ZL1 . no this isn't my car just what it will look like if someone hasn't seen it . I like it some don't!
4- Install the Team LLT Headrest

So I'll post lots of pics and video's soon .

I have ghost armor on all my interior guages and radio and also on all my foward lights. Looks like nothing is there and protects forever.

Marvin, nice job on the mods...........can't wait to see all the changes. I know you will have photos later.

I thought the street scene and stillen were one and the same. Just sold under different names.
