Do some interior products really attract more dust than others? Lets try and find out...

[Eldorado2k]

Hey guys, I’ve decided to do this test in hopes of trying to find out if it’s really true that certain products such as dressings and conditioners really do attract more dust than others.. I’ve always been curious about this topic so lets get right into it and maybe this can help offer some actual proof 1 way or the other.

1st I needed a good surface to test on, somewhere that can provide fair and even coverage and also remain untouched throughout the test. This is the top shelf of my cabinet.



It collects dust.



It collects Alot of dust.





I cleaned it with APC. Layed down some tape. These are the products I’ll be testing.



Surface completely clean and ready for applications. The back area behind the horizontal tape line shall remain completely untouched and bare throughout the test.



This is immediately after every product has been applied. They were all applied using different applicators in order to prevent any cross contamination. Each product was applied twice to ensure good even coverage.



I hope you guys appreciate this, as I’ve got to find a place to put all this stuff now. Lol.



The only 1 with the possibility of interfering with the test panel and ruining the experiment is my cat, because I’m sure she’d like to use the empty shelf to sleep in... Fortunately I’ve made it cat proof using double sided tape.lol.



I plan on removing the horizontal tape line later tonight when I get home as long as it comes off without disturbing the other tape lines.. And now we wait and see what happens. The dust shall come and reveal the truth.

Thanks for reading.

Interesting. Nice job Eldorado2k.

I look forward to your findings with this. I had a regular client in this past week that since I've looked after their vehicle I have used a diluted CarPro Pearl on the tops of the door trim & dash - as they like the semi-gloss, satin look. The previous time I had this vehicle in I used Gyeon Vinyl Cleaner & while it looked virtually the same as Perl I did notice this time there was more dust on these surfaces than normal.

Great test idea mate, again - I look forward to your findings.

Can I make a suggestion?

It would be nice to see how a cleaned area without any other treatment compares. Can you do that?

EDIT: Nevermind. I re-read your post and see that you've got this covered. I tried deleting my post but was unsuccessful.

You edited your post just in time. I was about to reply. You saved me a little bit of time. Lol

There’s a couple of main reasons I decided to try this experiment.
1. Not too long ago I used the Boyds Interior Detailer to wipedown my coffee table & TV. Initial results were good, but it’s long term results were what made me take notice. My coffee table & TV are black, and I’m used to having to constantly vacuum because they collect dust rather quickly, but suddenly I began to notice that they were staying cleaner longer. I’ve been wanting to mention this product but didn’t want to make any declarations until I was completely certain about it, but my initial results have left me impressed.



2. If leather conditioner doesn’t attract any more dust than the others... No comment at this time. Lol.


That top shelf normally collect more dust than the other shelves. Can’t wait to see how it turns out. Right now they all look equal as far as dust, Hyper Dressing & BriteMax Interior Dressing look noticeably darker than the rest.

I’m in no rush though, think of this like a good 1st blood match.. I’ll provide updates w/pics, but it’s not gonna end pre maturely if 1 of them has a cut lip, or a little bloody nose... 1st Blood means it’s gonna run until it’s caked with dust just like the 1st pic! Then we shall make final judgment.

Interesting test. Will be fun to see the findings you get.

I pictured that poor cat tangled up in the tape though LOL Hope she make it without getting cought up in it lol

There’s clear evidence that she tried to make her way in there sometime today.lol. Cats hate tape, but it looks like she made a decent attempt and loosened all 3 strips. [other side is untouched because she can’t access it]

Luckily she couldn’t bare it long enough to successfully remove it and get in there. lol.



I’m going to reinforce it and make it even harder for her to attempt.lol.
