I have been using the same duster for more than 2 years but never come across such issue with the handle. Its quite heavy and requires firm hand to clean the dust specially if the roof of the car is high. However as you said you may wrap it using some soft clothes or rubber grip.

My duster is 2 months old now and whenever I wipe the windows it's picking up the dust but leaving nasty greasy streaks on them. I don't want to wash it yet but the strands feel greasy and I'm not sure how to fix it. I've only been using it to wipe dry surface dust.

My second Jopasu duster arrived today.

The old one sweeps, of course, but it does not pick up dust at all. I guess it is about four years old.

Wondered about buying one of the microfibe brushes that are available now. Maybe next time!

Will be buying a new car early next year and this Jopasu duster would be one of the first goodies I'll buy for my ride. Amazon has the car duster and mini duster combo for 953/-

I bought a combo, first time around. I got a microfibre cloth as well, which was excellent.

The mini duster, I have never used! But it would be good for a quick dust of the dashboard.

How often do you wash the duster with detergent ? Mine is a couple of months old and since am using it to clean 3 cars, had to wash it twice till now. I feel the efficiency in picking up dust has marginally declined now though it still does its job.

[Thad E Ginathom]

I've never washed it. <Blush> I don't think there will be any wax left in the strands, now, even if I did.

I use it every time I take the car out, but I have only one car and do not drive it every day. Even considering that, I'm fairly pleased with its lifetime.

Wasn't there some mention of a re-waxing spray becoming available? I didn't see any such thing on e-Bay.

edit... ahh, just a page ago...

Regards,

Now I have to look at the packet!

Are you being gentle enough? Just pass the brush over the car so that the strands touch the body. Use zero pressure!

Their website claims the duster is washable and reusable. However many here claim the duster doesn't attract dust as well after being washed. I bought the duster a month back and it's already turned the white strands grey. Should I wash it or not?

[Thad E Ginathom]

They do discolour, pretty much from day one. They pick up dust; they don't let it all go again. Don't worry about it being grey if it is still picking up dust!

The strands will fast lose colour but the duster still works great. I just have a problem with its disproportionate weight which can break the handle. Have had two such breakages. Both dusters still wipe great.

Oh, and don't ever wash them. In fact keep them away from water.

Check out their website: http://www.jopasu.com/products.html

It clearly says the car duster is washable and reusable

[honeybee]

To be honest it works very well without washing, so I have no inclination or motivation to wash it.

Yes, I'm not using any pressure. What I mean is for example, if I'm wiping the front door window the handle hits the ORVM. Or if I'm wiping the boot lid it brushes against the spoiler.

I just got the Jopasu Small Combo Pack which includes the duster and a microfiber cloth for Rs. 854/- from Amazon.in

Just look at the packaging the guys at Amazon got for it . Seeing the size of the box while taking the delivery I was like Poor delivery boy had to carry that thing around. Wonder why didn't they just use the smaller box rather than packing it inside the bigger one. Still full marks for their delivery service, as I got it delivered in just a day after ordering.

Hope it serves its purpose as advertised.

My single duster was delivered in a box like the smaller one in your picture.
