Dusty after using Compound - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Washed the car last night and used Meg Compound. Today it's a pollen magnet. Hit it with a microfiber towel and comes right back. What did I do wrong?

The two are not likely related unless you left a bunch of residue on the car.

Idk I only used the compound on the hood because it's my first time using it. I did it in small sections. But the whole car is still attracting fine dust that wipes right off with a microfiber but comes right back.

it's tree pollen. only a car cover or garage will keep it off.

So you only compounded the hood, yet the entire car is attracting pollen and you're blaming the compound?

I'm not following.

It's not the compound, it's just that time of year. I'm dusting mine daily right now because of that. Just keep a good coat of wax on and the pollen will keep coming right off.

Compounding a car does make trees pollinate more from my experiences.

Lmao. You're on a roll today.

I will, however, staunchly defend my belief that it makes birds incontinent.

My computer broke so I had to catch up with some trolling.
