Default Pollen

It's a beautiful day out today so I'm going to cut out of work early and go wash my car. (wow is it wrong that I'm excited about going to wash a car?)

But it's supposed to Thunderstorm tonight.

Anyway... anyone from my area knows cars get covered in pollen this time of year. Are there any products out there that wil keep it from sticking on the car or something. I mean.. it comes off in water but just sitting out there from the time I come home to the morning it looks like it's got golddust all over it and when it rains it turns into yellow streaks.

A car cover will solve the problem.

I deal with the same here in Savannah... I use the Car Duster usually and the nifty cover that DavidV has above on the weekends!

I use the duster as well. However, sometimes the coating of pollen is too great and I give up. Then I have to wait for the rain to pass and the sun to come out.

Fresh water washdowns are how I deal with it during the week. TBH though, it's really a pointless struggle for the next month. I'll have to look into one of these dusters.
