Try using your leaf blower. That'll get rid of a lot of it. Then use the duster on what's left.

Took my GS vert down to the Fuel Cars 'n' Coffee event Sat, and was only there an hour. When I walked back to my car, the black paint was actually a pretty yellow-green from the tree pollen. 75 MPH on the trip home took care of most of it…

…or you could drive it in the rain.

pollen is so bad here, the cars turn yellow before i am able to dry them . Just be careful with the duster, you don't want to scratch the car. My electric leaf blower serves to dry the cars aswell.
