got my tint and clear bra installed today

Had quite a collection of spring bugs on the nose of my white 2014, plus this being a late spring in Minnesota, there is a little more in the way of sand and gravel in the corners and intersections.

This afternoon I took advantage of bright sunshine and warmer temps to work on the finish. I was pleased and a little amazed to see that all the little black bugs and their guts literally just wiped right off of the clear bra (3M Scotchguard). I tried using Novus plastic cleaner, Plexis plastic cleaner, and Adam's Waterless Wash. Of the three, the Adam's Waterless Wash with their specific WW waffle towel did the best job. The bug guts and staining were the bane of my existence in pre-clear bra days. Now...nothing. Very, very pleased. I did note that the coverage with the stuff was pretty accurate relative to where the bugs accumulate. I didn't really have any bug strikes outside of the clear bra area.

Also looked hard for rock strikes....didn't see any evidence of that.
