Bug preventer
Getting ready to travel west for vacation in April. I am looking if there is any spray agent to coat front of RV to make it easier to remove bugs when they get stuck to fiberglass.

One thing that helps, that you don’t see often these days....is a wing attached to the tow vehicle. There were some that were angle adjustable ....you adjusted until the “bug-line” disappeared. Should help fuel mileage also. You rarely see a “big rig” without one. A real practical solution....but not aesthetically appealing!
The air foils as they are called has been discussed a lot on here. Based on what I recall, they are not worth the investment unless you are doing A LOT of towing over long distances. Main response has already been said....."Moves the bug line higher". Unlike semi trailers, RV's have to some degree aerodynamics to them. A semi trailer is a square front regardless if it's a dry van or reefer. At least the reefer is somewhat rounded for aerodynamics. Thus, that's why tractors have airfoils on them in an effort to gain mpg's and easier to pull.
