Question about removing pollen

What is the best chemical or wash to remove pollen that has pratically etched itself into the rubber gaskets around windows and crevices between car body panels and from the paint? The pollen here in the Pacific Northwest from evergreens not only blankets everything outside but seems to adhere to the exterior of cars like it is glued on. Will bug and tar remover remove pollen or does it take something stronger? It even migrates up under the edges of auto glass panels that do not roll down, Any suggestions? It does not simply wash off. I tried using a toothbrush to scrub it from panel lines, edges and crevices with no luck.
Thanks

I like the #40 use it a lot but it is more of a dressing/protectant than a cleaner.
Meguiars makes a heavy duty cleaner it is #39 I keep some on hand all the time for tuff cleaning jobs.
