Just picked up a nice gray one (no ugly red) from Target. They have a special line of them there.. about $12.

Does it have the wood handle? If not, its an imitation... not sure if it matters though!

Default Nooo..

It's the real thing "The Original California Car Duster." The deal is that Target distributes this color and make. It is made by "The Original California" company who makes all the other products. Target is branding all the car products called "Del Sol" and they package them with their own packaging.

Default Dont use it..

unless you like swirls.

It has wax. The product itself warns that it definitely WILL leave swirls. Folks are reporting that it leaves swirls after many months.

I spent way too much time on my Zaino finish to introduce swirls.

Default Naww..

It doesn't say that. I just read the package. It says that is uses parafin wax to pickup the dust and that the first one or two times it might leave some parafin on the surface. It will wash off with your next car washing regiment. After 2-3 times of use (called seasoning) it won't leave swirls, wax, or anything else. They also said that the dirtier it gets, the better. It also reccomends that you leave it out of the package for 48 hours before first using.
