Post Zymol and gathering dust?

I waxed my car no longer than 3 days ago with Zymol and I looks great. but now it is very dusty. but hey, it has not rained here for like a year or so, but still it is very dusty! does Zymol gather dust?
on this Zaino thing, if you wax your car like once a week, does it really matter what you use?

Wax and oils will hold onto dust like a magnet. You can try a California Duster to remove the dust. With Zaino there is no wax or oils, and after you use the Z-6, there is not even any static to hold onto the dust. It makes it very easy to dust with the California Duster and keep clean with the Z-6 enhancer spray.

Any color car or brand of wax or polish will have some surface dust, you just can not totally eliminate all dust from driving or the car setting still. You can easily and quckly remove any surface dust with a California Car Duster.

Which version of Zymol are you using, the blue kind at WalMart is the beeswax version, all other is carnauba wax. Zymol is owned and made by Turtle Wax Company.

i know what you're dealing with. damn dust! i live here in las vegas. you wash and wax you car, and a hour later it's sheeted with dust. try the california car duster. i use it everyday. only about 12 dollars at wal-mart, dust it off everyday or when needed. make sure your car is cool to the touch, cause when hot, it makes the oils on the duster smear your car. hope this helps!!!!!

BTW, Turtle Wax owns ALL of the Zymol products, Turtle Wax owns the Zymol name.

I have a duster, but I wish I did not have to use it so often.
