Default Car Cover - for pollen

I have a 2005 XK8 convertible and no garage. I cover the car regularly with a Block-It Evolution cover designed for that model. I have had the car and the cover for about a year and a half.

The pollen problem was terrible this past spring for the middle Atlantic states in the U.S.

Pollen would be thick on the cover, and then there would be a rain. The pollen would come right through the pores of the cover and leave streaky residue on the beautiful BRG surface.

Do you have any suggestions for a different car cover that would help me with this problem?

Also, I see that both the "ears" or "pockets" for the mirrors are beginning to separate from the main body of the cover. Do you have any suggestions about a sturdier car cover?

Thanks.
