I bought one of these about 10 years ago to keep the dust off my Harleys.

Had my Tuxedo Black/Silver Ingot washed yesterday and noticed it was covered in dust and ash from my neighbors bon-fire last nite.

Grabbed up my California Duster, went out and in 5 minutes he looked like he'd just been washed, again.

They are only good for removing dust and light particles, not mud, etc., etc.

I even dusted off my vinyl bed cover and it too, looks like it just got washed.

All the detailers working with the Auto-Show in Detroit use them to knock the dust off the new units just before the show, every morning.

That's where I first found out about them and I haven't worked an Auto-Show since 2001, when I retired, so mine is at least 10 years old and still works well.

 

I got two of them that are eight years old and still work really good.....

 

I also have two. One is about 20 years old and the other is about 12 years old. Both still work great.

 

I also have the dash duster and vent duster which also work well.

I use a dash duster for dusting my house. They work well on ceiling fans.

 

Yep, mines at least 7 years old. I love it. The older they get they seem to do a better job because the oils don't smear over the paint. I still get a little oil smear on hot days, but nothing to complain about.

 

Yep, I have 2 of them as well. A large one for the exterior, and a small one for the interior. The small one seems to work well for the fragile instrument screen. Picks up the dust without leaving scratches.

 

When they 1st came-out I bought one - 1986. Still in use today and I bought another 10years ago to keep in my other vehicle.

The '80s original has a wooden handle and longer strands. IMO better quality that the ones that followed.
