...........really good idea ! Also don't let bugs bake on in the sun, this where a foam cannon really works as well , a good 20 minute soaks usually softens up the little buggers so that they can be removed easily
ahhhh how about this......
just collect bugs and after bug situation is over take it to the detail shop and let them clean them spotlessly???

Great thing about Klasse type wax, you can get it all ofver the rubber, windows, plastic, etc. and it only make it look better.

In Florida it's "Love Bug" season -- if anyone's familiar with this phenomenon. I purchased the 3M Clear Kit for the mirror, fenders, and hood a couple of months ago just so I can protect my investment. Here in FL if you don't remove those d&mnn bugs it eats into the paint real fast. So, I spent all day Saturday detailing the car in preparation to apply the 3M material; plus it needed to get a good buff job anyway;-. I was only able to do the mirrors and a fender before time ran out on me yesterday.
