I keep a Silverado 2500HD in the same building. It's ceramic coated too. I can see pollen on it during the heavy season, but when I get to my destination it's gone.

Same here. If you just lightly dust the car no scratches at all with the Cali duster.

Just got home pollen everywhere. Just soaked the car in CG Pink from a hose gun then washed her real well with micro fiber mitt. Almost all pollen gone and will apply diluted bead maker tomorrow to clean her up. Now the interior is a different matter will start that tomorrow. Ugh 😩 pollen everywhere.
