Cars are pollen magnets. No matter where you park it, pollen finds a way. Let's take a look at how you can keep pollen from clinging to your car.
1: Wash Pollen Away ASAP In our neck of the woods, pollen latching onto our cars is an everyday thing. Essentially, you're going to want to wash your car as often as possible. Whether you spray it down or run it through a car wash, washing your car as soon as pollen begins to build up keeps the spiky substance from latching in. Refuse the urge to brush it off with your hand, as pollen can scratch your paint job when brushed away while dry.
2: Wax On, Wax Off Giving your car a coat of wax while washing can reduce pollen's chances of hanging on to your car for the ride. It also reduces pollen's chances of scratching your car as it blows away. If you run your car through an automated car wash, many cleaning packages will take care of this step for you!
3: Use Windshield Water Repellent Windshield water repellents serve many purposes. One of those purposes happens to be making your windshield too slick for pollen to stick around. Much like waxing your car, applying water repellent to your windshield as you're washing your car can save you a lot of headaches (literally) in the long run.
