Re: NEW McKess 37 pollen X
I still think pollen is too abrasive to wipe. Sure, polymers encapsulate it but it might still lead to marring. Not sure I’d be brave enough to try this product.

Re: NEW McKess 37 pollen X
Interesting attempt at a product solution to a common problem.
No mention of using it on a ceramic coated vehicle (or any LSP type for that matter). That would be important info to include in the product marketing IMHO.

I was thinking this as well.

We need something for artillery spores. But this could be good too

Yes. But is it better than Bead Maker?

It says it leaves some protection behind and makes the next pollen removal easier. I would take that as it’s not ideal to be used on coatings as it will change then behavior of whatever is touching the coating and therefore not giving you the benefits of a coating.

You use bead maker when you want more pollen to stick to the paint. Maybe use BM first and then you’ll have plenty of pollen to test Pollen-X on.

Something with a long attachment as those artillery fungi can shoot their spores up to two stories high ...
On a more serious note, avoiding organic landscape mulch is the best way to avoid pesky artillery fungus. I got so tired of cleaning our house that I removed every single shred of mulch and replaced it all with the rubber mulch. Problem solved. Most mulch sold nowdays is a mishmash regrind of landscape debris, trimmings, etc., and is a breeding ground for fungus.

I think you are right as the outer part of a spore, aka the spore coat, is made of keratin and is very hard/tough. This is one of the reasons why spores can survive so long and resist so many things ... chemicals, heat, UV, etc.
My guess is that a really good, thorough blasting of water, followed by a careful wash with lots of good, slippery soap water, remains the safest way to deal with pollen.
