Dead Bugs & Critters
I've got all kinds of dead bugs and critters on my rx8 on the front bumper.
What is the best product to use to remove these dead bugs and critters?
Thanks.
P.S. Sorry to post this again as I've already posted this in the Show & Shine section but did'nt get too many responses. Apologize for that.

Bra is BAD idea (ugly too), get the 3M Scotchcal clear protection film (clear bra) - find a www.xpel.com dealer.

FREE ADVICE!
I'm going with the majority on this one. I use the paper towel and water spray myself and it works like a champ. No chemicals to irritate Sybil either...:D

I bought 2 different brands of bug remover. None worked very well, especially when the bugs have dried off on the bumper. The wet towel (soaped to get rid of the greasy residue) method should work.

I've never had trouble removing bugs while I wash the car. As Meowloud said, if you keep a good coat of wax (or Zaino) on the car, the bugs come off with little resistance.

Ok I have the miracle solution for BUGS, TAR, Grease, and any other nasty stuff that sticks to your car !!!! Ready ... here it is ...........
It is made by Honda and it is called "Spray cleaner & polish" Black can with a diaginal white stripe and Pink writing. You can get it in any motorcycle shop. It is AWSOME !! You spray it on and buff it off. Off come the bugs and crap ..... leaving polished shine !! I bought a case of 12 cans and I'll never be with out it again.
Good Luck !!
By the way .. I just joined tonight and I didn't even pick up my car yet. Getin a red 6 speed. Can hardly wait !!

I didn't see anyone else comment on this, I'm really curious.

ammonia in windex breaks down wax..enough use of it will eat the clear coat too. use spray/spot detailer or warm water.

Everywhere in the world birds **** like crazy... if only I had a sawed-off shotgun! I hate it when people feed them lil' f*cks
As for the bugs,I'll try the towel. There's only one way no bug to hit your car: drive with heavy rain!
