I was trying to wax my car today, but the pollen won in the end.

Look what happens within 10~30 minutes of sitting in the South, after just washing the car:

I guess I could say it rained on my parade. It was literaly raining the stuff.

I was breathing it.

No problem, all my life I have been dealing with it. Maybe that's what happened with my receding hair line.

I know exactly how you feel. How? My apartment complex is across the street from the University of Florida "Bee Research Center".

The pollen shows up even worse on Merlot paint...! My car has a nice yellow glow to it due to that damn pollen.

I factored this in when I purchased the Sterling Mist. My previous car was black and it drove me crazy, since I keep the car very clean.

SUXNESS!

that happened to me when i was up in NorCal at my sister's place.... you can use one of those "professional dusters" to brush off the "dust", i think. it's better than having to wash your car again.
