Car like new one day, not moved, bogging the next?
What's the deal? I don't even need to drive it for it to be minging again the very next day, like it's coated it dust/dirt? I know dark colours show up dirt but come on it's not even moved!

I came back to this after the Sahara dust storm. It's all the dust, pollen and pollution that settles on the car, then gets turned into a paste by the c**p weather.

Pollen is the big one for me , and crappy bits etc off the trees. I'm going to be causing a hose pipe ban at this rate. Haha

It's still dust in the air I think. Mine's just the same.

Yep, same here too. Need to clay, SRP, glaze and wax the car, but worried that over the 5-6 hours it would take that more dust will settle and I'll cause more harm than good. Glad I don't live in the middle east

Mine was getting covers in soot, as I was trying to polish it on Saturday morning. A guy down in the Valley, below us, still likes his coal fire & the wind was in the wrong direction.
