Hey,
Just needed to vent. I thought I was doing something good for my car the other day. Washed it and detailed it but today check what mother nature did to my car:

California Car Duster. I cannot emphasize this enough, buy this thing! It has saved me many a wash and works better than you could ever expect:

They sell it at every auto supply place. I got it at Kragen for $20

That stuff messes me up for weeks. My eyes get almost completely red when i come in contact with that stuff. It's eye drops for me almost every two hours just so i can stay sane.

looks like pollen kinda sucks... cant say its a problem for me. but atleast u only get it for part of the year.
i cant keep my car clean no matter what time of the year it is. every sunday i wash my car, by about tuesday it looks like i never wash my car... dust just appears from no where and its made worse because of the colour of my car.

Hey...a fellow chucktowner that feels my pain. Good to hear from you. And yeah, I do have the duster, but it's pointless!!!

every sunday i wash my car
Wow, that's dedication. I honestly couldn't be bothered spending hours of my leasure time washing the car. I hose it off occasionally, that's about as close as it gets :-P
My car hasn't moved for about 2 weeks now, and it's covered with a thick layer of dust...

The pigeon is greater than the pollen. I hate the pigeon.

Here in Florida where I live, a clean car can be completely covered with yellow powder in one hour, it's happened to me, I hate this ****

I play tennis and the tennis court is yellow until the ball hits it and there is this big cloud of pollen that comes up. you can track the ball by the round spots WITHOUT pollen

We keep getting one day of rain preceded and followed by a week of pollen. I have washed this car 3 times in the 2.5 weeks that I have owned it. It would be a pain in the ass if it wasn't so satisfying... :)
