I guess I just don't care about that much and I keep using it.

Yeah, I was thinking just the desert sand alone getting trapped between magnet and tank acting like 2000 grit sandpaper, one granule at a time.

The dust in the air is so fine we have to have special micro-filters for car and home air-conditioning, and there is a film of that dust on top of everything all the time, it is also in the air and tends to sand the plastic and even glass off of headlights over time and of course everything else that is exposed. You can't escape it, it's always there

Heck, one less thing to worry 'bout.

Heck, one less thing to worry 'bout. It means people use ceramic wraps for their vehicles, and there are shops that specialize in headlight restoration. I am obviously not one of those. I do use a product for headlights once a months, to keep them shiny and clear
