416to212 03-20-2008, 11:08 AM For something as simple as a layer of pollen, take a California Duster to it. You'll be surprised how effective it is. You can buy one almost anywhere: Target, Wal-Mart, Autozone, and Pep Boys.
Oh and when my new wax jobs get messed up by weather, I just console myself because I know the paint is protected in the long run.
04RX8man 03-20-2008, 12:35 PM yeah california dusters are the way to go they are like 10 or 15 bucks and it saves from washing everytime it gets dusty or in ur case covered in pollen

EdwardsB 03-20-2008, 12:41 PM yeah i hear you I did the same...wash, wax, vac/arm interior, exterior/engine cover plastics, and clean engine bay and now it has rained for two days. but at least its protected!
renesis, you got any pumpkin, lemon meringue, or apple pie?
Tim Tim Tim 03-20-2008, 01:31 PM im not sure you guys have experience with the pollen here. Literally I washed my a few days ago at around 6:30pm. At 6:45am when I went to work the next day, there was a nice solid layer of pollin on the car. By the end of the day there is no way a duster would have made it look right again. Not to mentionI would be out there dusting it non stop, by the time I finished the back the front would be dirty again.

Dude that is a feature of owning a BB car. Unfortunately I have this same feature :icon_no2: I love my car clean and get to enjoy for 1-2 days :lol:
CyberPitz 03-20-2008, 03:21 PM I told myself I was going to wash my car eveyr couple weeks....so far, every weekend has been car wash time. I just love washing my car so much, until I look at it the next day, and see all the dirt and such all over it, I cry.

I agree.
Dust is my problem in the summer, we have so many d#@$ wheat fields that get harvested to make the crust on that blueberry pie.
