dust cloths

I'm going to a MINI show in a couple of weeks, so obviously need the MIN to be as clean as possible. Planning to get up early and do all the washing and waxing and stuff, but from experience, by the time I arrive at the venue, (as long as it's dry, fingers crossed), the car will be dusty. So, the question is, is there some sort of cloth out there that I can get which I can give the MINI a good dust with, without having to wash it all again (and which is obviously not going to scratch the f**k out of the paintwork)?

Thanks guys, all help and suggestions much appreciated

Have you tried the California Car Duster?
I think it is available in the UK.
It is a very soft brush that is impregnated with, I think, paraffin wax.
I have used one for about four or five years now, just to remove loose dust, and find it very effective.

DITTO to what carlh94 said. Those things are perfect for just a light dusting. Lots of places sell them, sometimes with different names but a quick Google search of "California Car Duster or California Duster" will show you exactly what it is. They are the nuts to keep in the boot for just such occasions!

Give Alex a call at http://www.seriousperformance.co.uk/sp/contact_sp.php

He'll be able to sort you out with some Microfiber cloths and 'Poorboy’s Spray and Wipe Quick Detailer' (that's at the bottom of his maintenance page)
