Yeah. Then its just a natural problem. I would go get one of those car dusters and use it well. Good luck on keeping that baby clean.

Use a microfabric towel to wash your car instead of a sponge.

no waxing after a fresh paint job. and the reason you see all the dust is because you're not use to seeing the dirt and dust because the paint is so clean. after a couple years, you won't think twice about it.

just remember waxing is fairly abrasive, so in a fresh paint job, you're removing part of the clear coat in order to remove the debris so the result is a nice smooth surface, just like sanding something smooth.
