I have noticed that my car gets mostly dusty. Is it possible to keep it clean between washes by using some sort of a quick detailer spray and wiping the dust using microfiber towel?

If this is ok to do, what is a good QD spray would you recommend?

 

jkb,

here are some good detail sprays:

Optimum instant detail and gloss enhancer (can also use as a clay lube)
Adam's Detail Spray (can also use as a clay lube)
Swissvax Quick Finish (can also use as a clay lube)
Einszett Detail Spray (should not use as a clay lube)
Zymol Field Glaze


If its too dusty I would just rinse the car off. If you question it just wash it.

 

I'm not a fan of using a detail spray in the place of washing. If there is dust accumulated over time from just sitting in the garage, you can use a safe wool duster to gently remove the dust

If it's been driven a few times, then just wait until you have time to wash it. The reason is even if you think the dust is small and harmless, it's microscopic rocks. No matter who's detailer spray you use, you WILL be rubbing the rocks around causing microscratches. So, you're better off just washing the car in my opinion.

Detail Sprays were originally made for cars when they were at Concours events, auto shows, and a way to just get the haze off from waxing. Somehow over the last decade it's become an alternative to washing. Not good if you ask me.

 

Just wash it as often as you can and safely as you can. hold off on the light dust till your regular washing.

 

This is why the CR spotless is really worth it's money. If just minor dust, hose it off, blow it off with Airmax dryer.... 10-minute no-touch process. Takes longer to reel up the hose.

 

I'm also not a big fan of detail sprays. Every time I use one, I then get mad at the swirls that were put into the paint.

If you are going to "quick detail" the car, use a lot of spray, & use a lot of MF towels, start up top, & work down, use two towels per section/panel. One to wipe, & one to buff.

 

SmartWax's "ONE" is becoming very popular

 

I use a high end car cover that keeps the dust out....prevention rather than attention.
