The more black it gets the better. Just don't use it on heavy dirt. It is a DUSTER. I have had mine for 7 years and never washed it.

I also have the water blade too

Especially with your emphasis on DUSTER. Some think it is a substitute for washing and will remove tree sap, bird poop, etc.. NOT.

Why dont' you use a towel to dry your car or whip off dust?

You need to properly prep and seal your paint.

Then use the Duster very LIGHTLY and it will suck the dust off the car......don't rub hard.
