That allows the molecule to be broken down easier thus having a smoother surface.

Just found out it is not just dust only, it is a cocktail of dust, oil and chemicals... a concoction which can destroy the paint of the car. Worse yet if rain gets mixed with the dust and not washed away pronto...Looks like I have to get another old junk for my Kemaman trips. Drive my BMW from KL to Kemaman, park it at a friend's place in town and use the junk in Kemaman. That way I can save on the wear and tear on my BMW.Or perhaps a cheaper option wud be to get a car cover... but it wud look weird, a covered car in the factory when even my boss is not that fussy! Of course mah, he uses an executive bus for his Kemaman trips.
