I have been routinely washing my car once a week for the last 4 months. But recently it rained for a week straight and i didnt wash it! Now the bugs i left on the car are crusted on!! How do i get them off without hurting the paint. Also when should i take my car to get proffesionally waxed or does that minute wax spar crap really work???

 

i use a quick detail spray.. works pretty good. if its really crusted on there.. i'll use a polish to get the rest of it off.

 

You can place a wet towel on them to let them soak to get as much off as possible first, then try a clay bar. If that doesn't work a mild abrasive may be necessary. You never want to leave bug guts on if at all possible, even if you have to stand in the rian. They can etch the paint very quickly.

 

Prevention is a great start. Make sure you use a quality wax system (synthetic or natuaral) and that you stay up on your treatment. To get it off if they're stubborn use a clay bar.

 

DONT buy the Porche Bug Remover - I'm not happy with it. its harsh and it doesnt work that well.

 

After you get those guts off, get a clear bra. Bugs wipe off with a dry towel!

 

Just a sidenote--DO NOT use simple green. I saw my neighbor spraying and soaking his new pickup with this stuff to get bugs off--It's NASTY stuff
