RE: You guys are alright!
I found mine at Autozone.
And I want to clarify that I wasn't removing sand and road grime with it. It was mostly just dust. Dry dust, organized in little water droplet size circles all over the car. Up until this duster I used detailer and a microfiber towel. It worked OK too but took MUCH longer to do the whole car. Maybe having a fresh polish on help. (That's where the TW Ice comes in.)

RE: You guys are alright!
I've only had my 'stang just over 3 months and only waxed it once. It was within the first 2-3 weeks after that waxing that I did feel comfy using my fiance's California Duster.... and I really liked the fast, easy shiny results! BUT... I do agree with several posters here that the California Duster is best suited for a well (or recently) waxed car that is not particularly particle laden.... peter piper picked a peck of particular particles!

RE: You guys are alright!
here is another good site for car care stuff, some of it is a bit pricey, but it is top shelf stuff, like pebble beach concourse quality. He also has this nice 40mill optical grade plastic for your lights and leading edges of the body, plus just all sorts of neat stuff.

If you need your car looking like it was just washed everyday then you should seek professional help. Seriously, it's transportation and for many of us it's our daily driver, so unless you only drive it on Sunday, get used to it not being squeaky clean. Too much cleaning/dusting can be bad.

OK,
So what do you suggest ?
Most folks don't have the time to hand wash and dry everyday.
The CD is the best product I've found, that keeps ur Stang, (or any car) "showroom new"

RE: You guys are alright!
The best thing I've found about the turtle wax ice products including their quick detailer is you can use them in the sun. If you've ever used other spray detailers and had the misfortune of it drying before you can take it off, you know what a PITA it can be to get that stuff off and not have it streak.
With TWI products this is never an issue when you want to detail at car meets/shows and stuff. I love it.

I've receive a lot af very helpful advice through this forum. CAI's and Tunes were the first. Then someone turned me on to Turtle Wax Ice and I've been loving that stuff.
Now.....The topper. The California Duster!!! Outstanding. My life with a black car has just been made infinitely easier. Shined her all up this weekend and wouldn't you know, rain Tuesday morning on the way to work. My car looked like a spotted, automotive, leopard by the time I got home. Used the duster on it though and in 5 min it looked like new again.
My most heartfelt gratitude to all!

I see less dust on my California Duster.
Man, those Black Stangs are awesome.
