Default Pollen Problem...

O.K. So it is spring again, and the pollen is out in full ****ing force. So my question is:

Are there any trick you have found to keep it off your car short of covering it? Waxing with a certain was, anything. I am having to wash off my car ever day so I can see out of the windshield.

POLL QUESTION:

How many of you are having this same problem? or am I just being laughed at by the gods?

I have the same thing. But not as bad as your describing it. I can take a finger and drag it across a panel and pick up a small amount of pollen and dirt.

Get one of those brushes do just brush the pollen off. Works for me.

get one of those professional dust brooms detailers use. you just drag it across your car's surface just like a dust mop.

it's the best thing you can do because the pollen is going to constantly fall on your car until you get some serious rain to calm the pollen down.

I waxed my car not long ago so I just use a rag to wipe it off and it works fine for me.
