Pollen Sucks!!
Everytime I wash my car it turns green with all this crap in the air!! I'm going insane with wiping my car down every 5 minutes to keep it clean!!

Yea, I feel your pain. My wife and I both have black Jeeps, and they both look green. The rain helps some at least.

Jersey devil detail to the rescue... a company called finish kare offers what seems to be the best anti static products out there... ive tried the car wash and fk 425 quick detailer and am happy with both by no means will it keep the pollen off completely but will keep some off and allow more to come off as you drive... i do notice the quick detailer does streak some if its humid out or in direct sunlight but like i said out of the few ive tried these seem to be the best. Normally i just keep a fresh coat of wax or paint sealant on my cars and every wash use pinnacle spray wax on the ta and griots garage spray wax on the subie and it keeps them both extremely slick so the pollen slides off as soon as i drive
