My car..the dust magnet. I have a NBM SS, I clean the car just about every time I pull it out of the garage, it is not a daily driver. If I drive it to work & it sits out all day, it looks as if I parked near a dirt road.
I have been using Tropi-Care TC-3 on it & various quick detail sprays. I have some Tropi-Care detail spray, I am going to go back to using it...
I am going to be doing a full detail on the car this week, using 3M & Tropi-Care products & my Porter Cable buffer.
Any ideas on how to minimize the dust collecting???

I did as the instructions advised. I've never had any luck with it. It looks dirty, so it works some what. I shake it out before using it, I just don't see great results with it.
I thought it was static from my towels, I stopped drying them & that reduced the static feel quite abit. Still too much dust in a short time!

drive around with a car cover with a hole for view 
mine is the same way with dust. 6 coats of wax/polish and its still snowy looking from sitting in the garage. car cover solved that, and i dont mind taking it off/on everyday as a DD.
