Taking Off Bugs

THE BEST METHOD I'VE FOUND FOR TAKING BUGS OFF IS CASTLE VINYL CLEANER SPRAY IT ON WAIT A MIN OR TWO AND HOSE OFF

Nobel_One · 12-11-2003, 09:14 PM

I'm guessing it doesn't hurt the paint?

NO IT DOESN'T IT'S BETTER THAN THAT BUG AND TAR REMOVER THEY SELL

If you want a real good way to remove bugs.
Use baking soda. Just get the front of your car wet. Then take a handfull of baking soda and rub it where the bugs are and they will come right off.

Windex is money. The amonia takes them stupid dead bastards right off. That what we use at the detail shop i work at.

i just scrub, works for me.

Work smart not hard

or go to the super wash(if you have one) and use super soap and it will take it off better than anything!!

windex....hmm interesting...looks like i've found somethin new to try out...

BLAZ1N · 02-04-2004, 09:27 PM

if you have a wholesale detail supply store near you see if they have little brown SOS style scrub pads made out of walnut shells... it cleans the hell out of your car and doesnt scratch at ALL..

I just spray them with Windex,let them soak,then they wipe away with a little soap and one of those bug remover sponges you get at Wallyworld.That sponge also does a good job at removing the road grime and junk from the lower body panels.

When washing your truck and you get to the bug part, just use an old pair of panty hose. It doesn't scratch the paint and it gets the job done effortlessly. (my mom's idea)

Just scrub.

another one to try is Kerosene.....works wonders on tar and bugs with a scrub brush or sponge. very effortlessly they will come off. trust me.....i had to prep 8 cars/hour for full details...this stuff works quick and great!

GEEZ, I thought you were men, who said keeping a truck was easy? MAN it out!!!
