How do you all keep from getting your Black Toyotas from collecting a layer of dust. No matter what wax I use I cant repell any dust. I always see alot of black cars that are very clean but I dont know how they do it. :pat:

I don't have a black one per se, but keep a good layer of polish/wax and you can use a good feather duster or microfiber towel to get the dust off.

yea i know black is a pia to keep clean but I always see alot of black cars that seem flawless, maybe ive seen them right after they got washed

What is suspended in air? Usually dust particles, etc. What do your fan blades move through.... air, right? Therefore, as the blades move through the air it will accumlate the dust, etc. on the edges of the blade.

Black is THE toughest color to keep clean. I had a black MR-2, my first and last black car. But right after a wash a wax it was really sharp!

I use to wash it about once a week, but Id use them auto dusters, they seem to work pretty good.

I have the california duster, but I always end up touching the armor all and end up streaking it all over

right. you're completely on-target. i just find it odd that despite the blades' movement, the dust still accumulates. i suspect it has a lot to do with their rotation in one direction only.

I used to have a black 4Runner, plus I live on a dirt road, plus I always parked it outside. I could wash it in the morning and by the afternoon it would look as if it hadnt been washed for months.
I love the way black vehicles look when they are all cleaned and waxed-up, but they are a pain to keep looking clean. If there is a product that keeps dust from accumulating on them, I wanna know about it.
The way I look at it, it's a Toyota. If you dont at least have mud splattered on the bottom 1/2 of the side it just aint right.

fuzion..i have the california duster and a clack taco...it works awesome and i hit it when i leave work and when i am home for the night Daily, people may laugh but your whip looks better than theres by far! dont give up!

FUZION

I used to wash my truck whenver it showed signs of dirt and dust, being that is black, that was all the time. But, after a while, that got old. I just let it get dirty and wash it when I can. It still looks good even dirty. A black truck can look better dirty much better than a black car.

LOL.......yeah RIGHT !!! I have a black 04 Tacoma. It looks awesome when it IS clean. I have to contend with a LOT of log trucks on the highways where I am [damn things.... I hate'm]

I told the dealer he had to sell it to me to get me to buy a black one. I saved $3,000.00 for that part of the deal.....LOL

But...Black gets washed more than any color there is. Mine gets a wash atleast once a week

FUZION

I wish somone would invent a wax that wouldnt let dust stick!
