Black Top

I have a silver top that is easy to keep clean between washes. Now I also have a black top to keep looking nice. I am wondering how you black top guys keep it clean between washes. A damp cloth wipe w/ just water would keep the silver top looking clean and nice, not so w/ the black top. I guess I am just to much of a detail freak, lol. Soooo, whats your method. Thanks.

I use a quick detailer (prima slick) and longer nap microfiber to pick up the dust. The quick detailer has more lubricity and the extra length of the microfiber I use traps the dirt a bit better than a shorter nap and keeps dirt from dragging and creating swirls.

I use Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer and a microfiber.

I too would use a quick detailer and NJ Mini is right on target in recommending a longer nap microfiber towel. I like either this Fluffy Towel or this Ultra-Plush Towel.
