Pam cooking spray

I've read some of you fine folks spray Pam on the front of your RV's to help in cleaning bugs off of your front cap. Does it affect the decals (making them turn loose or become brittle)after a long time?

  • If you spray Pam or like on the front, and you let it set fro a couple of days in the sun, it turns to a goo that is a real chore to wash off.

  • Spray some of that junk on a piece of sheet metal and see how it feels in a few days. You will change your mind.
  • Forget the vegetable spray, you'll attract more dirt than anything. The magic answer for bug removal is wet dryer sheets. You will be amazed.
  • I was told (now get this) that WD40 was good for removing the bugs off my front cap and after after returning home from florida,,,It did work,,,,very well actually, they literally slid off the cap after a 20 minute soak which at that point I washed the cap off with my regular car-wash soap and as WD40 is mostly fish oil and water it rinsed off without a trace, try it!!

    If it moves and it shouldn't, duck-tape,
    if doesn't move and it should,WD40!!
  • Slides, a funny (not) story, got my first Cadillac saved for years. Sprayed front e nd with Pam to ward off lovebugs. Amazing how much having front end repainted lowered trade in value. I'm just sayin...
  • I use the butter flavor, seems to attract more bugs. :B
  • I would think a good coat of wax would do better than oiling up your trailer.
