Here in FL certain times of the year when you park your vette in 10 min. it is covered with pollen.
I guess I need to get one of those dusters. :thumbs:

When the "dust" is fine, white sand like it seems to be in South Florida, it looks pretty bad on dark cars too... :)

GreyGhost,
Just got my first Vette and I had noticed you had mentioned that you used a Kozah cloth to clean yours down. What is a Kozahcloth & where do you get them?
Thanks in advance
:confused:

Yep, I get the dust! California duster get it at Wal-Mart with bag less then $10.00! Make sure you keep it in the bag and something under that in the car. The little duster from them is great also for inside the car. Another thing is Meguair's Quick Detail. :thumbs:

All cars start getting dirty the moment they're washed. I think it's just more noticeable just after they're washed, because you happen to be admiring your wash job and get annoyed when the car starts getting dirty.

In a previous post on this, a CF member called the back of the C-4 a "dust magnet". I think the term fits pretty well. Especially the tail lites. Always looks like poopey.
