I've used Bug B Gone in the past. Just spray it on and let it sit for a couple minutes, then wash off. If it doesn't get them all it makes taking off the rest with standard tar and bug remover easier.

Not surprised. The directions do say to not let it dry. I sprayed it on. Put my coins in and sprayed it off right away. Pretty much took all the bugs off. No paint damage at all.

Beefster knows about Pam. it helps. Clean the front end real nice-give it a coat. Clean up the next time is easy.

I'm also thinking of trying the Pam trick. Doing a 300 mile round trip this weekend so I'll give it a shot. A little while ago I saw someone talking about using wet dryer sheets to clean off the bugs.

It does seem like we're driving a bug killing machine.
