I live in Florida and seldom see rain in the Fall/Winter/Spring. Ill usually dust my car more often than wash it; takes just a minute and always looks great.

Anyway, I also dry dust my wheels with a long-handled, soft bristled brush I bought at Target in their automotive department. The handle is about two feet long and the soft bristles are about three inches long. Takes care of all that front wheel brake dust like nobody's business. Standing up, dry, in about twenty seconds apiece. Those soft bristles knock the dust out of the most awkward crannies and everything shines up just fine.

Dry dusting is so quick and easy, I'll probably do it every other time I take the car out.

Once that brake dust gets wet, tho, forget about it ... have the wife get out the hose and the bucket.
