Dusting freshly detailed interior...
I love the look of my C5 after a fresh detail on the interior. But your standard Armor-all type products (I use the Turtle Wax 2001 stuff after I learned about the sin of armor all a few years ago). What I don't love is how the road dust sticks on the surfaces.
I have a california dash duster but that sheds like crazy. My micro fiber towel takes most of the shine away with it. Anyone have any other tricks other than re-applying or keeping the windows up? Are there other towels that would work better?

You should find a number of suggestions over in the Car Care Discussion section of the Forum. Several very knowledgeable people and a few professional detailers hang out in that section.
Good luck.

I use the stuff Bounty mentions but it is for the house. I specifically use "Grab-it" Dry Cloths (Johnson and Johnson product) and the stuff works great at having the dust 'cling' to it without taking any of the shine away. Been using it for years!

I also do the same, when I do shows. I detail the dash at home and then get all the stray hairs and dust off the whole interior with a Grab-it Mit. Works awesome, won't lift the shine and gets all the dust.
