2 out of 5 stars Warning to women - it's a red baseball bat   July 14, 2008
1st of all I admit that I did not read thoroughly the page asto what I was buying - it must have been a bad day because I buy a lot on Amazon and always check all details of a product. I bought this in combination with the mini duster which is great - it arrive a week ago, this thing arrived today.

I'll never use this thing so it's basically 20 bucks down the toilet. But I want to warn anyone curious about it - it is heavy. It reminds me of a baseball bat. Almost as heavy, about the same size, and the thick handle area is very much like a bat.

I can't imagine any woman using this thing.. It's too heavy and clunky, never to be used with just one hand by a woman. It also is obviously filled with chemical so be prepared for that. Right now it's sitting on a table in the other room and the house at the moment smells like a car wash.

I gave it 2 stars not because of my mistake in purchasing the wrong item, but because of it's enormous clunky-ness and weight and obviously strong chemical in it.



5 out of 5 stars California Super Duster   July 2, 2008
I've seen this product used a number of times over the years and recently decided to get one for myself. This particular duster is quite large and perfect for my large truck. If you have a family sized vehicle or a compact, I would recommend one of the smaller California dusters. This product works as advertised. As I see it there are but two drawbacks: one, if you use the duster on the vehicle's glass, a waxy residue will be deposited. Two, the duster gives off a powerful chemical odor. Stored in the garage no problem. Stored in the house a significant problem. The bottome line is that I'm happy with my duster and would buy it again.

I just received my new California Super Duster to go along with my brand new car. This thing is great...especially in the days between a car wash and a rainy day. The California Super Duster will make it look like you wash your car every day.

First let me just state the obvious: The Super Duster is meant for use on a DRY car....not wet. Sorry...just had to say it.

The key thing about the Super Duster is that it doesn't leave those swirls that you might otherwise get from just wiping your car down. It's got super-soft bristles that glide over the finish of your car and remove all the dust. On the other hand, make sure *dust* is all you're trying to remove with the Super Duster. Don't try to use it on silt and other 'sandy" type build-ups. Don't use it on bird droppings. And never scrub with it; if a gentle glide doesn't remove what you're trying to get rid of, go to the conventional method(s) of cleaning your car. Otherwise you risk swirls or scratches.

This is my second duster after owning my last one for...well...since sometime in the 90s. The last one I had was a bit smaller with only a 15" cleaning head; the one on this page has a nice, big 31" cleaning head. And I was almost reluctant to get the 31" because my 15" was still working so well after all these years. In fact, as time goes by the thing actually works *better* as it starts to look dirtier.

After your first use or two you may experience a little streaking (which freaked me out), and it even tells you in the packing that this may happen due to a "parrafin wax" that the Super Duster's soft bristles are treated with. Rest assured that this stops after like your first few uses, the wax does not harm the car's finish and it easily wipes off. Before the first use of the Duster, remove it from its packing and let it hang in you garage for a day or two; this greatly reduces the amount of streaking that may occur on your first try.

So if you can get by the minor "streaking" thing that *might* occur in your first try, you'll love the results that the Super Duster provides. It's like taking your best suit to the dry cleaner with the major difference being you get a bright, shiny car back in under a minute using the Super Duster.

Now...hit the road!

I have had this product for about 6 months. It takes less than 2 minutes to dust your car off with this product. I keep my car garaged and it still gets very dusty. Now whenever I drive off, my car is lookin purdy!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent!   June 1, 2008
I have a white car which I was getting tired of having to wash every week. I did some research and this proved to be my best option. I completely love the super duster. It is not heavy as some people have said and it saves me from having to wash my car every week.
