Don't you have a little brother or a nephew? Heil tell them you'll give them $5 to get the bugs off. Just be sure to supervise them, just incase they find the sandpaper....

Aha I do have a younger brother, but he wouldn't do it for $5.

I'll try the various methods suggested and see what works best for future reference.

For comparisons sake, the corvette in the video posted above looks freshly cleaned compared to the front if the van lmao. It's got a layer of bugs. Can't web see the paint.

On my Harley fairings I take a large towel and soak it in hot water place itover the area you want to get them off of and let it soak in for about 10 minutes then try washing them off... it worked wonders for me!

Our Waterless Wash is an excellent choice for safely removing bug guts. It softens and emulsifies the bug guts, allowing them to be removed without scratching your paint.

Once they are removed, protection is the key! Get a coat of wax or sealant on there and the bugs will slide right off!

Well I washed it yesterday, used up the last of my meguiar's quick detailer, as well as the last if the quick wax. So I guess I'll be placing an order with Adams soon.

Just for the hell of it here's some pics.
