MicroFibre Cloth
What exactly is a mircofibre cloth? I bought a set of three, and it seems to say on the instructions - you can use it on a dry car to remove dust and residual matter like pollen or stuff like that! From what I know...a cloth on a dry car leaves scratches! My car is saphire black...so it's quite a touchy colour! If the mircrofibre cloths aren't for this purpose -> what are they for???
Also, in the movies *(yes i know)*...i see poeple using what looks like a flat mop to "wipe" their cars clean...usually limo places (in the movies). What is this? I park outside (under a carport) and my car gets REALLY dusty every night... What is the solution? |

Read the fine print. The CLOTH won't scratch your car, but anything it picks up, well, . . . . I use them after I have washed my car, to remove/buff the finish spray I put on it.
Those things you see in the movie are probably the California duster. Better than the microfibre cloths, but they get real dirty. I never could figure out how to clean the ones I used on my two wheelers (black) very well. They get really grimy after a while. Carports are a problem, I understand your concern. Even within a few hours of the wash, there is dust settling from mine. |

Zaino products claim to have anti-static properties to let the dust slide off, but not sure if you can get them shipped to SA. For my Arctic, I end up with other things requiring a wash before the dust piles up. Every Saturday morning, unless I'm hung over.
