cheap and effective car care
By Johnny B
This product works rather well. I seem to have an OCD concerning car care so naturally I'd like to save a little time and money while trying to stay 'spotless'. This duster does the trick. Do read the directions though. The wax from the duster will streak at first especially on windows. Also, the duster doesn't pick up things like water spots from the dew the night before. But for things like pollen, road dust, and small bugs it works great.

EDIT: It's now been nearly 7 years since I first wrote this review. I wanted to add that I am still using the same duster! The vinyl sheath that it comes in has split down the side but the duster is still going strong. I've never washed it but since I kept my cars pretty clean anyway it never was badly soiled. Occasionally fibers will fall out or get stuck on trim pieces but, I would say it is 95% intact after all these years. I probably use it a few times a month on average now but about twice a week for the first year or two that I owned it.

Great! I wish I knew about this product earlier!
By Mediahound
You can trust that this item works well and does not scratch your paint. I was always skeptical previously and just asssumed these things scratched the car. But my paintless dent removal guy uses one and highly recommended the California Duster to me. He is fanatical about keeping his car totally detailed. And this product works so well that he never even washes his car unless it gets rained on. He just dusts it every morning before he backs out of his garage, and if needed he uses some liquid instant detailer and a microfiber cloth after dusting if he feels like it. It takes a total of less than 2 minutes to dust off an entire car, yet the result makes your car look like you just washed it.

I use the California Duster before putting on my car cover so that there is no dust between the car and car cover. If you have a garage, it's quite useful since dust settles on the car during the day when you are out and about and at night, even garaged. You won't have to w ash your car as often if you use the California Duster. And dust won't build up if you use it often enough.Before discovering the California Duster, I found that after washing my car, I could only use my car cover for a few days before the car got too dusty to put a cover over. Now I find that I can keep the car dust free and use the car cover for much longer, which in turn means I don't have to wash the car nearly as often.

I got the plastic handle California Duster which was significantly cheaper at the time I ordered. Although the wood handle one looks classier and probably feels nicer, the plastic handle one feels plenty sturdy, for the value oriented, get the plastic handle one since it's the exact same brush anyway!

I am really very happy with what I paid for the Calfornia Duster and would not hesitate to recommend one to anyone with a car or motorcycle. Just be aware what it is not made for a car that is wet or very dirty. My only complaint is th at it is not actually made in Calfornia.

Really Works!
By J. Perasco
Somewhat skeptical, I ordered this car duster expecting it to be more hype than practical but it does a pretty good job! Be aware that it works best on dry dust. Once your car gets a sprinkling of rain or the dew settles on it, you'll be better off washing the old fashioned way.
