I agree! You might try using a clay bar on the car followed by a good hand wax.

If you look at the picture below you will see the one really large ring. This is the largest ring I've ever seen form. If you look to the left you will see a small one starting. They look like somebody did this with a mechanical object, but then as time goes they grow larger - appearing to add rings/layers like a tree slice.

Its consistently happening in the same spot.

So, a charge via the vechicle combined with the properties of the "dust" are creating the "sticking" as they are magnetically charged, bonding them to the deck lid.

Try waxing the hood with an synthetic wax, smaller on a molecular scale, it will help from keeping the fibers stick, charged or not....

Call you local CSI unit, there just sittin around anyway

Fun stuff, glad you posted this. I love this technical stuff. I get to do it at work too, from time to time
