RE: Clean Mach
For dust on the exterior I found the california duster to be brilliant - I had a black GT and it worked wonders on that. It only works on dry dust/dirt however, if it is wet dirt or water spots it will need the hose.
As far as keeping the engine clean I would love some tips also

RE: Clean Mach
Hmm, if there is a localized place where the grime tends to land - like on the panels behind the wheels maybe you could use that 3M invisible bra material? I have never seen it myself and am not sure of the shape but it would be worth a look.
The california duster (http://calcarduster.com/ - the one I have is the one with the 70's pornstar looking guy using it) looks like a mop and the threads are kind of waxy - you just slide it over the surface of the car and it picks up any loose dust or dirt - you can do the whole car in about 1 minute - iy really helps space out the wet washes. I have no idea how it works - it never has to be cleaned and it works better the dirtier it gets - wierd. They are available in Sears and walmart for about $20 - if you can't get one where you are let me know and I help you out.
