    I have been using CG QSD and FK425 which are both supposed to have anti static properties. However I cant really seem to tell the difference between those and normal QDs in terms of dust repllent.

    Anyone ever do a side by side?

    If not, Ill do it on the trunk of my BLACK M5 and check the results! I live in a really dusty area so this should be a no brainer

    ok after one dusty SOCAL afternoon,

    The QDs rank as follows: (from least to most dust)

    CG Synthetic QD
    CG Speedwipe (non-anti static)
    FK425

    Im going to retry again, as its weird to me that FK425 got beat by an NON anti st.

    And I did use different towels to wipe down each section

    reporting back, same results. FK425 seems to have less antistatic properties than CG's regular QD which is kind of sad.

    CG SQD works the best at repelling dust, but it is still a marginal difference at best

    FK did replace SQD as my favorite QD, but now its back down as second....

    SQD is about 1/2 the price of the FK anyways

    I do like FK425, for the money I use DG#521 its slicker IMO. I would like to see how it holds to FMINUS test. How about it FMINUS? You got any?

    Al-53 Welcome to Detailing

    I found that DG #521 Marine Detailer to have better anti static properties than FK 425....I did a side by side test on a TV screen..which you all know is a dust collector....the DG side had way less dust after 2 weeks....

    The other product I have found to have great anti static is Lucas Slick Mist....
