What the name of that stuff..Ill have to make sure i pick some up!

Halfords (a large chain of car spares shops in the UK) Bug remover

or Turtle Wax Bug and Tar Remover.

I guess your local shop will have something similar?

Whilst I never think these sprays actually work, both of these do!

Combined with the cotton covered sponge I remove 100% every time!

Damn! I just came from Halfords this afternoon...Ill be going back tomorrow to get some...Cheers!

here's a bit of advice from the bmw motorcycle side of things...


get an old towel or rag and soak it through with water and allow it to sit on the offending bug mess for an hour or two (it really doesn't take that long); keep wetting the towel to make sure it stays wet.

through simple osmosis/diffusion, the water will rehydrate the dried bug parts to slimy, and then simply wipe, wash, etc. off softly. no problems... that's how we clean our motorcycle helmets when travelling and stopping overnight. also cleans the bike that way, but it seems to upset the motel/hotel management when we come back in with a bunch of dirty towels...

Bug remains should "bleach" out of the film over time by sunlight exposure. If you don't want to wait for that, use Scratch-X followed by a polish or cleaner wax. Be careful what chemicals you use on the film.

in the Uk i use AutoGlym bug remover.. works a treat!
