I'm in the same boat as you guys, I wash mine 1-2 times a week. I can see the dust settling on my car like 30 min after washing it and I always wash it inside my garage. But dam does it look good for those 30 min and in the shade

 

Everybody talks about the paint being soft on the Infiniti, I have a sticker on the underside of my M-35 hood that states HARD CLEARCOAT! what does that mean?????

 

Lol, I had a superblack 350Z for 14 months, I feel your pain. One thing to think about doing is switching wax. Do the Mequire claybar with showroom spray, then the cleaner wax, at least twice, then the sealer wax.

Best way to keep a black car clean as you can is to make sure the surface of the clear coat is smooth as can be. Believe it or not dust tends to settle but either falls right off when you drive, or you can use a duster and some detailing spray to touch it up.

It's really important to get the base clean and smooth as possible.

That's my Z after a 4 hour drive to NH, a full track day, it's just not that dirty except for the bug splat:



and this is after driving around all day and coming home from work, a 20 mile trip each way, it looks like I just washed it:



and, my 1991 Nissan Sentra SE-R, 147k miles and original paint - again out for a drive, not just washed in the driveway:



Thank god my G isn't black, too!!! Seriously the key I've found is really doing the base work on the paint, once you've really cleaned it well with clay bar and gone through the rest of the steps, it stays a lot cleaner a lot longer. Now if I could just find a way to keep the wheels clean...

 

Thanks for the tips guys. I thought I was the only dealing with this problem. I saw a white g35 coupe yesterday and a stop light. I was really jealous of how clean it looked..and the owner probably didnt even need to clean it often.

 

That is the best invention for blk cars. I used it for my old ride and it kept her pretty between washes...

 

Ah yes, the California duster is a life saver. Although lately, mine has been leaving some streaks

 

Don't use a carnuaba wax, use an acrylic sealant. They don't attract dust (Klasse AIO, Klasse SG).

 

california duster is the best investment ive ever made lol

 

make sure you shake it to release dust in between uses.

 

I use a car cover and still get dust. Feels like I am always washing my car, but in the end it looks great, so I guess it is worth it.

 

I gave up on my G.. My black G is probably the dirtiest on here.. Haven't washed it in months..

I used to wash it and wax once a week, and ALWAYS within 2 hours the car would be covered in dust.. Where I live is part of the reason why though.

 

I've heard nothing but great things about california dusters. I think I might have to get one. Black G35 = Chick Magnet = Dust Magnet = ??

 

duster is amazing too.. Just dont press on too hard otherwise you'll leave streaks of wax or some crap..

 

A used car cover is one of the worst things you can do to your paint job. Every time you remove it it will pick up debris and dirt. Every time you put it back on said debris will scratch your clearcoat.

Best investment I've made: Take it to a professional, drop some cash to have the imperfections taken care of, and learn the proper washing techniques.

 

Couldn't have been better put
