Does anyone else have to constantly dust/clean their decklid panel?

I mean I guess it just shows dust more or something, but I feel like it gather's a noticeable amount of dust every 2 days at least.

It's a combination of gloss black plastic and aerodynamics. And yes, after I was my car it only takes a day or so for stuff to start gathering on it.

Yup!

Yep and it scratches easily

Aerodynamic sucks.

Yup. I have given up and just let the car look like its a 20 year old beater

Cali duster takes care of it in a jif if you use it daily and don't try to dust >2 days worth

That's why I did NOT replace my black roadster with a black Mustang! If that is all your getting, you must have magic paint.

Ceramic coated my car and wheels.... Takes care of most of that dust collecting. I'm assuming static electricity is a major cause and turbulence ! I use ECH2o as a detailer with a microfibre cloth....all gone in seconds! Takes longer to collect to a noticeable level.

Yes, and not only that my bright white 3M stripes are slightly greying on the rear vs the front because of all that dust buildup back there.

I use a MF rag to wipe in one direction, from the center out to the right and left ends. Pretty much daily, when I get into the trunk anyway.

I put clear film on my black panel, so I needn't worry about scratching it. Warning: CPF does not stick to this particular panel very hard. So keep that in mind when fooling around when applying/removing badges/vinyl.

Yep, that part of the car gets dirty way faster than the rest of the car.

Get the body colored MMD pre-painted decklid panel from AmericanMuscle and problem solved. Those gloss black panels are the worst for dust and fingerprints.
