    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    RW this morning around 11. I wasn't even halfway though when I saw pollen was already starting to build up again.

    Just dressed the tires now and the car is yellow.

    Like, yellow.

    It's on the car, it's on my sunglasses, it's everywhere and it's non-stop.

    I washed my car 2 weeks ago, went in to take a shower, went back out to go to lunch less than an hour later and my burgundy car was yellowish green from the pollen. Like you said, it’s non-stop.

    I don't even bother any longer until the pollen winds down. I'll usually wash and get the winter grime off in April, then ride it out until mid-June. (Here on Eastern L.I.).

    The pollen is a problem right now in the Northeast but I just can’t ride around in a green car. It seems like every time I stop, I give the car the once over with a lot of detail spray and a 1400 GSM towel. Paulie, I know very well that you can’t drive around in a green car either.
    I believe in treating everybody with respect, and clean cars. That’s what I believe in.

    Looking forward to a pollen maintence wash tomorrow with Bilt-Hamber Auto-foam, will also use it on the rims as well.

    Does anyone know how long pollen season actually lastsWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Washed, clayed, put down two coats of FK1000p. I also put two coats of Collinite 476s on the wheels and dressed the tires with Nextzett Vinyl-Rubber Extra.

    I'm in central CT, so we're likely on the same schedule. Does it really usually last until mid-June? I haven't paid attention. It just seems terrible this year!

    We are basically on the exact same line of latitude (if that makes a difference!) so according to PaulMys it might be mid-June. Which sucks.

    A few days ago it looked like it was literally snowing with the fluff that was flying around. I don't know what it is, or where it comes from, but it happens once a year and collects in corners and looks like a bunch of snow. Trash!
