Best bug removal product?

Turtle Wax Bug and Tar remover Spay it on and let it sit for 30 sec and Tar and Bugs wipe off easily! I just used it on my parents Murano that I detailed and they were impressed with the results thats all I can say

You have to be careful with some of the bug and tar removal products as they will mess your paint up.

Yes some of the products can be harmful if they are used improper.... But in the order and how I use it, it is safe Wash, Bug/Tar removal, Clay Bar Cleaner Wax with orbital, Sealer with orbital.

I use to have a HUGE bug problem. Here is my key. At least 2 times a day wipe down the front with mothers showtime retailer with a microfiber towel. Once a week wash it. If they are rely bad I use turtle wax bug remover.

LOL - 'cept for the fact that the dryer sheet is full of chemicals

I think its the softening agent that helps "release" the bug guts...

I use Turtle Tar and Bug remover for heavy infestations but on the 370Z there isn't much to remove since she gets washed every week and waxed every three or four weeks so usually I can get it off with a detailing spray and microfiber cloth.

Not after being used and rinsed...It's really the texture that does the work..

The best thing to do is have a clear bra installed. No question.

holy shyt batman, I went outside earlier today only to find a nice creamy white pile of blue jay dung sitting on my hood. Dont have any products to clean it, but a fresh box of snuggle dryer sheets I do! So I got one wet, wet a microfiber towel and went to it. Sure as shyt, two swipes with the dryer sheet and the eagle poo was no more! Cleaned the residue with the towel, and shes good as new!

Dryer Sheets=Magic

no no no, i swear im not saying dryer sheet is bad.

Honestly i rubbed the dryer sheet down the front of the bumper and it left a weird white streak. I thought man whats that. So i tryed it again and i got another streak so i said okay i dont like this method LOL.

It did work though, stuff was coming off. I just didnt like the streak thing that was going on.

You should be using a used one. Streaks are probably Zaino related as I've never seen that since using this technique..
