Hey Fellas,

I washed and waxed my car yesterday and much to my suprise i woke up this morning with white dust all over my car..

There was a fire last night so theres quite a bit of white ash, but theres also specs of probably sand and concrete dust (theres a fork lift dumping tonnes of sand in a truck accross the road)

I guess I will rewash it again on the weekend to get all of this off, but in terms of a way to get small bits of dirt off my car between washes, whats the best option?

Its a black car, so white specs of crap tend to stand out. I have microfibre towels etc but obviously dry wiping specs of sand and concrete dust into my cars paint isnt smart :P

Cheers!

Most people would recommend using a quick detailer spray and a microfibre cloth for those in between cleans like a light dusting from a quick drive.

In my opinion though, as much as a dirty car sucks, I will NEVER run anything over the surface of my car unless the car as been washed properly.

This is why sometimes I can wash my car up to 3 times a week.

A quick detailer is good for removing fresh paint contaminants such as tree sap and bird droppings but if the car is covered in dust then a wash is the safest option.
