    All of us on here are always on the hunt for a product that helps with the dust.I've been using Fk#425 and been very happy with it.And now that Ag carries it that makes it alot easier to order some.

    I have to second FK 425. Killrwheels tried FK 146 and had equal success, but it is not the cure all for dust. Just merely cuts it down a bit.

    I am quite impressed with Finish Kare 146 .. maybe it was just the weather this week, but I have seen a reduction.

    FK 425 works great. I've been trying Dodo juice red mist tropical. It leaves a nice slick finish also. The static is being cause by you wiping it with the microfiber. Just use a QD after the sealant or wax is cured.

    maybe someone should try using a dryer sheet for their final wipe down. That person should definately have a black car.

    FWIW that was a joke, but I wonder if there's a way to use the same principles that make a dryer sheet work,to help with reducing static on auto paint? It probably sounds stupid, but I'm not really sure what about dryer a sheet removes static.

    having a black car, you really get a great shine and look but those are some of the cons.

    Re: Best product to stop dust attraction

    Here is my solution to dust: wipe down with QD when I get home or before I take the car out every time, at least thats how I do it.

    Also, I'm not sure about the durability of FK 425. But I noticed that my car is significantly less dirty than before in terms of a set distance in the rain. It also seems to have made water spots wipe away effortlessly; normally they require a bit more effort to get off completely, but 425 does a great job. Streak free FTW.

    I also have a black car and have noticed that if I use a less plush microfiber towel when QD'ing I generate a lot less static. I have recently started using my Cobra waffle weave guzzlers when doing a GENTLE (in one direction) wipe down with FK 425. The static generation and dust accumulation has been considerably reduced for me since I started using the WW guzzlers w/ my FK 425 wipe downs.
