Zugara Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Pollen is floating about in the atmosphere and settling on the cars.... Gave both the cars a clay and wax these last 2 days, did my Z this morning, she looked all gleaming and went outside about 3 hours later and far from being sliver it is now a nice hue of silver yellow, or metalic yellowish Both cars needed another wipe over to remove the settled pollen and the white cloth i used was now ........yes you guessed it yellow Anyone else noticed this at all Quote
RisingPower Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Too darn right. Been thinking of getting some of this. http://www.elitecarcare.co.uk/chemical- ... be-16o.php Quote

Will370z Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Yup been like this for the last couple of weeks. Was spotless the other day, got in today and looking down the bonnet I would have thought i was in a banana yellow zed. Quote

Ricey Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 You think here's bad.....the zed was literally green every morning in Germany because of all the fir tree pollen. It does my head in. Quote
DoogyRev Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Even after some "Extreme Pruning" mine it still covered Quote
rtbiscuit Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 pollens not the issue for me, its so dry that all the fields turn to dust and then it blows across the area and settles on the cars because we haven't had rain in ages. Quote
Lexx Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Try parking your car in the docks with a ship on one side loading scrap, and a ship on the other side discharging cement...and then it rains. Pollen has nothing on this! Quote
Peter10 Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Same issues here. I live opposite an open field and next to a main road so I get attacked by dust and pollen. I park under trees at work so more pollen there too . Quote
SparksCW Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 I'll join the club! I didn't realise it was pollen, just thought it was dust but my car gets covered, I polished it this morning and it's got a layer on it ALREADY. I figured it was because I park under a tree and on a busy main road... sucks can't wait to get a house with a drive, maybe a garage if I'm lucky! Quote
glrnet Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Yep, did mine this morning and within an hour, yellow greeny layer Flicked it off with a clean towel and put her straight back in the gararge, at least it'll be clean if I go out tomorrow Quote

Hope you had a great holiday. Quote
