Get a California Car Duster for daily dust. I wouldn't use it on the 3 day old stuff but daily it's great.

Magnetic hides dust...but...

I agree that magnetic hides the dust. I also agree about some waxes having anti-static properties:
The first wash, this Spring...I applied a coating of Chemical Guys Butter wax followed by a coating of Collinite. Yes...my OCD is showing.
After a few hundred miles of dry highway driving, the magnetic had a sheen of dust all over it...GRRR.
After a few weeks, I decided to reverse the coatings...first an application of Collinite, then Butter Wax. A couple of hundred miles of dry highway and there was almost no dust build up! I permanent marked the Collinite "Apply First".

So I suggest that if it seems your magnetic is collecting dust really fast...try a coat of CG Butter Wax.

It's not too bad, shows dust from the drivers point of view.
But then again not as bad as the last 9 years with my 2007 Grabber Orange.
