Dust and Water Spots

Ok call my **** but I want to be careful with my new G, I keep it in the garage 99% of the time, there is a fine layer of dust on the car with a few water (dirt) spots along the bottom. I want to avoid doing a complete wash would it be safe to us Quick Detailer and a Microfiber to whip down the car or could this cause scratches?

It can cause scratches. A quick wash would be the best thing to do.

I've used the California Car Duster for years to get the fine dust off the car and it works great with no damage to the paint. I've also used Zaino quick detailer for small touch-up cleaning such as water spots with no damage either. If you're careful and there's no grit or significant dirt you should be fine. It's not always pratical to wash the car every time a bird craps on it or you drive through a wet area - the quick detailer should be fine.

California duster is awesome! I use it daily to keep the car clean from dust. For spots that are a bit more dirty I use PB's Spray & Wash.

Alternatively, I recommend ONR for quick washes. ONR washes takes about 30 mins or less.
