Have you tried a California Duster?
Some folks around here like a yellow ride every spring.

I usually give it a wash if there is heavy pollen build up. I also use a anti-static detail spray after every wash. The dust and pollen doesn't build up as fast and I can usually go longer between washes. It doesn't stop the pollen, but it does help.
The detail spray is called Finish Kare 425.

Wouldn't the California Car Duster scratch if used on pollen? I have a Titan Sliver 545i so I think I would get away with it, but on a black car I would assume that you would have some fine scratches on the paint.

My car is Jet black, so my situation is terrible. What I found that works well for me is to bust out the pressure washer and blast it away. The hard water spots are always a concern, but i'd rather deal with that then the yellow ugliness.
