Thumbs up California car duster

Hi Guys,

I was in Costco about 10 days ago. While walking down the automotive isle, I saw a "California Car Duster" . I think it was about $10-$20. I figured why not give it a try. The "kit" came with an "original" California Car Duster, and a mini duster for the dash and interior. I really like it . Each morning, before I get in the car, I run the duster over the car real quick. It takes about 30 seconds. It keeps the car pretty dust free, and very clean looking.

My car is garaged, and I don't drive it when it rains. Most of the time I wash it, it is because of dust build-up. This Duster will probably cut down the number of times that I have to wash the car by 2/3rds. The mini duster works nicely for the dash and interior.

It's a good product, and I highly recommend it. Here's a link to another Costco kit. The kit I bought didn't have all the extra stuff. Just the two dusters, and a case.

Good call, Adam. I use the Duster in the summer months and it does indeed stretch out the wash period quite a bit. They work better as they get a bit older too.

I also use the California water blade to dry the vehicle and to wipe the windows on a morning with condensation. Works great.

It's good to see some products from this state are actually useful and work!

I think the duster is one of the best things I have ever purchased, My other cars are to dirty from bugs to use it on but the RX-7 only gets driven on nice days and the duster keeps it great, I love the mini for the interior...wish I would have bought these sooner.

Just as a helpfull hint. Not sure if the duster states it, but before you use it for the first time, lay the duster in some sheets of news paper for a day. The newspaper will absorbe the extra gunk that is on the duster so you you dont smear it on your paint.

I have a small one I use on the interior all the time. They work great. Picks up the dirt and leaves no lint!

I own a black car. Black car = looks horrible with dust on it.

My car gets dusty from just sitting in the garage, and looks amazing after wiping it down with the california car duster. I love it Makes my car look clean again.
