Default Best Duster ever for the interior

My dad turned me on to this. I was amazed at how well it gets every tiny piece of lint\dust... between cracks etc...

Swifter Dusters... Like $3.-$4.00 for 6.....

It's a must try if you want your interior to look spotless..

They also work very well on a cold engine compartment.

And they also work great taking light brake dust off rims.

Pretty much any Walmar, Target, Kmart, etc store carries them. They're those little wand looking things that you replace the 'pad' on.

Great for reaching into the crevices between the dash and windscreen.

Is this something different from a Swiffer Duster, or is that just a typo.

Do the Swiffer Dusters have oil in dusters? Not sure I worded this right.

Someone tole me the California Mini Duster has oil and not good for dash. I don't know and hope you guys and gals can tell me for sure.

I would recommend spraying a small amount of Endust on to the Swifter Dusters as they tend to push some of the fine dust around rather then picking it up.

I use them as well, they've been mentioned on here before. They're great for the engine compartment, interior, and those hard to reach places like the door hinges, etc.

They do work well in the interior, especially the vents.

Good idea, though I prefer air dusters

Did anyone answer the question of whether they leave any kind of oil or chemical film in the car?

I use soft makeup brushes to clean the dust out of all the crevices, and simply wipe with a damp cloth.

They have no oil, just dry feathery cloth/paper.

I use 2 different ones for the interior and wheels. The arm/tilting head makes reaching into the wheels a breeze.
