I would not do it again especially at $1800 as it was free option in my M.
It attracts dust because the Piano black finish is probably a good electircal insulator and as such can accumulate static charges that attact particles of dust. The surface may even become highly charged when it comes in contact with another material as in the case of trying to wipe it clean with a cloth. The solution for such surfaces is to spray the surface with anti-static agents. There are some furniture sprays that have anti-static agents. One I can think off is marketed by Johnson Wax.
