This is not really a sponge. It's like a block of foam with deep cells like a 3D honeycomb. It seems very coarse and something that you wouldn't want to use on the surface of a prized vehicle, but when you soak it, it becomes soft and safe, and the bug bodies get lifted off by the honeycomb construction.

As I said, not used on my black Z yet, but last season it did the job on a Ruby Red (medium maroon) Subaru Outback with no scratches at all.
