Saw one of these in the shops and it looks like an ordinary cloth but it says you use it to clean your car - mainly dust in between washing it. No water is used just dry against the paint. Suggests using Quik Detailier too so it says shiny.

Any body used one, interested in thoughts and impressions. I have used those old was brushes (magic brush or something) and not too bad at getting rid of dust but you can't clean as such.

Cheers, Al

i wax and polish and buff the shit outta my car, always keeping it shiny and my car collects dust like anything.

when i wipe it down, the dust gathers and after a while all i seem to do is wipe dust all over the car it just sticks to the waxxy surface.

normally end up washing the car again. i will definately go look for a dust magnet cloth... are they sold in most places selling car wash?

Will have to try the Quik Detailer - also recommended on the Dust Magnet packet. I have quick wax but its not the same thing.

I picked mine up from Big W. You can get it at any auto shop or the discount chains like Big W or K-Mart.

The oiled brush I have used before just seemed to move the dust around too but it is easier than washing and waxing all the time.

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
