Not for sure if this goes here but I wanted to make sure everybody seen this....Ok, I bought my truck in Feb and everytime I wash it it still looks dirty from all the bugs that are all over the mirrors, grill and bumpers. I mean it just looks really nasty. I have tried everything to get them off....scrubbing, hitting with a pressure washer and everything and still nothing works that great, well I went to the autoparts store today to see what I could find to possibly help with the situation, sure they have the bug and tar remover but cmon that stuff doesnt really work that great. Well I stumbled across this stuff called Bug B Gone made by seafoam, it was 6.00 for a bottle and Im thinking to myself this stuff prolly isnt worth 6 bucks but Ill try it. I have always been leary of cleaning products that claim this and that becasue for the most part they dont work. Well I can safely say this was the best 6 dollars I have ever spent. I sprayed the stuff everywhere that there was bug guts and let it set for about 2 or 3 mins. I took a rag and started wiping away, I could not believe how easily they were coming off. Its like they wasnt even there. If you are have the same trouble I was I highly reccommend this stuff, its like magic in a bottle

Use a couple of your wife's fabric softner sheets. Dip them in water and very little scrubbing. Bugs come off pretty easy.

Those Mr. Clean Magic Erasers have an abrasive in them and can scratch you paint. I’ve done it before
