1 Apply Products That Protect
We highly suggest that you start the season with a fresh coat of wax on
your car's paint, a polymer coating on your windshield and a water-based
dressing on any exposed rubber or plastic trim and moldings.
#2 Be Ready At All Times
Keep a microfiber towel and a bottle of quick
detail spray in your car at all times and remove bug residue often, before
it has a chance to harden and adhere to the paint finish.
#3 Wash Your Car Often
Wash your car at least once a week. Wash the hood, front bumper, grill and
windshield areas first and let them soak with soapy car wash solution to soften
bug residues. Do not scrub! Wash these areas again before you rinse the vehicle.
You will find that soaking these areas first really does a great job of
softening the bugs for easier removal.
#4 Reapply Protection
Reapply a wax to the paint to increase
protection. Just because you think you have protection on the paint, you need to
keep in mind that waxes and sealants are simply microscopic sacrificial coatings
and are not to be mistaken as "impenetrable armor". If the acidic bugs
can damage paint which is fully cured and hardened and can last over 10 years,
think about how much more damage they can do to wax who's lifespan is measured
in months, not years.
we recommend using the least aggressive approach possible for bugs that have had
the chance to dry and adhere to the car. Washing with plenty of soap and water,
as we mentioned previously, is always the first step. we use a lambswool wash
mitt but may try a honeycomb bug sponge with soap and water for tougher, more
neglected cars.
If this is not enough then you may try a citrus-based all purpose cleaner spray
or , a true paint cleanser applied by hand and massaged gently onto the paint
and followed by a fresh coat wax.
Road tar is most often found on the bottom of door panels, rocker panels and in
wheel wells. Regular soap and water and even citrus-based cleaners usually will
not remove tar that has affixed itself to your car's paint. we recommend a
solvent-based product specifically made for removing tar, grease and tree sap.
Do not scrub when using specialized cleaners. Spray the area affected by road
tar. Work in a shaded area on a cool surface and allow the product adequate
dwell time and it will do the work for you. Use a soft cloth or microfiber towel
to gently blot the area and wipe the tar away.
Tree sap is similar to road tar in that it dries very hard and attaches itself
to your car's paint with a strong bond. The same solvent-based cleaner that you
use for road tar will also work for tree sap as well.
IN SUMMARY
Splattered bugs, road tar and tree sap require specialized and intensive
cleaners designed to break down these hardened contaminants. Always use the
least aggressive approach that you possibly can, work in a shaded area and never
scrub with abrasive products that can damage your paint. Always follow up
intensive cleaning with a protective paint care product to add shine and restore
protection.
