I wake up most morning to find that after no amount of cleaning, I wake up to a dusty Monaco Blue E60 nearly every morning.. And I think i have finally found the culprit... As you can see from the pic below, I stay across the alley from a well used playground/football&baseball field/dog park.. I hate to think what is actually in that dust now that I type..

What product's can you recommend so that the dust perhaps wouldn't settle, and bond to the car. Maybe something that so that the dust won't stick, or atleast will allow it to be blown off while driving.. BTW there is already a coat of Menzerna, AIO, and Klasse SG on the car... Any recommendations will be appreciated. Maybe aquartz (sp) or something??

A quick detailer called Finish Kare #429 is especially meant for this. I can tell it makes the paint/clearcoat super slick at least. Of course the dust will still fall down on car, but maybe it wouldn't bond to it so hard and could be get rid off by driving..
A car cover will always scratch a car when put on even a little dirty car.
