    Default What do you use to dust?

    I used to use an old washcloth and Pledge, but then I got some of those Pledge dusting cloths VERY cheap after a triple coupon shop, so I've been using them. However, I'm thinking that I'm going to go back to Pledge and a washcloth when I finish them. They haven't really WOWED me. What do you use to dust?

    I use those new swiffer dust things. I like them. They make dusting easier, and I think that I will continue to use them. I might just add a little pledge to it so the dust stays away longer though.

    I use Pledge, when I really want to get the dust off, and I use a Swiffer about every other day or so.

    I just use an old dish towel. I have one of those new swiffer dusters and I'm not really impressed with it. I'll just keep using my towel.

    i use endust and a dishcloth. most of our stuff is lamenet (sp) and the pledge leaves a slick film on it.
    for things like my candle toppers, i use a plain paintbrush to dust them.

    I use an old tea towel/cut up towel (whatever is in my rag bag) and Murphy's oil. Sometimes Pledge.

    I use the swiffer cloths. They work well for me. I am going to try one of those new dusters though.

    I've always used a damp rag and a dry one...my mom used to do that. But tell me? Is pledge just for wood furniture or you use everywhere?

    Thanks
