How is pollen harmful to my vehicle?

Pollen comes around each year in the spring and usually drives our allergies crazy. It also covers everything we have outside including our vehicles. Pollen could actually be harmful to our vehicles' paint due to its high acidity level. Pollen can cause early oxidation of your paint. When it rains, the pollen’s acidity is activated and begins to wear down your vehicle’s paint. It is very important to try to wash your vehicle when you do see pollen on it.

An easy way to remove the pollen off your vehicle is to spray the top of the vehicle with a hose. You want to work your way from top to bottom making sure you get all the areas. Once the pollen is all removed you can put some detailing spray on your vehicle. Wipe the detailing spray off with a microfiber cloth. Using the detailing spray will make your vehicle have a gloss on it and deter the pollen from sticking.

Here at Jerry Noonan’s Auto Center, we would like to extend our well wishes and thoughts with all of you during this time. We hope you are continuing to stay home and safe!
