What is the trick to make bugs removeable from a vehicle?

[hershey]

We spend a large portion of our year in warm dry climates and I assume that is something that flying bugs don't like because I don't have a bug problem there. But summers are spent in WY and I swear I get bug splatter on my rear window backing out of a parking spot. We have a new car and I don't want to ruin the finish with brillo pads. There are bright yellow bugs and some so darn tiny that they just make a pimple on the finish. I've started using WD 40 to remove them and to put a protective finish to the front end. Whats the trick?

Cleaning works better during or after an all day rain. Water for hours makes bugs unstick.

I don't know how to keep them off but spraying them with hydrogen peroxide (dirt cheap) will turn them to goo and they will wipe right off.

I use this with a micro-fiber cloth on my motorcycle. Do this the end of each day before they really get cooked on.

Works as well as all the high priced "magic" stuff!!

I use Mequires synthetic spray wax. Best of the quick waxes. Just put it on a clean windshield and use a micro fiber to remove it. I generally do it twice.
I use it on all the glass,on the Mercedes. Bugs and stuff come off easier.
I just spray them off. I'm not saying bugs still won't make a mess but they come off easier as does dust.

I use a product called "HOGSNOT" that can be found in most Harley Davidson dealers. Spray it on the offending bugs & they wipe right off.

It's not a RV product, but it works very well.

At least the bugs are on your coach...

Let me tell you, them big fuzzy bugs ain't tasty!!! :B

x2. Even easier early on damp mornings, they're pre-soaked!

For $5 at Walmart, they had a mitt with a soft microfiber side and a microfiber mesh on the other. The mesh got rid if the baked on bugs easily.

Motorsickle riders know to soak a cloth / towel / bedsheet in the hottest clean water ever, and flop that on the bugged surface. Enjoy 1/2 a adult beverage (after your ride please) then gently warsh to remove the bugs. No fancy products needed.

Not sure if this works on bugs applied at RV speeds vs motorsickle speeds. Your results may vary.

We do a quick once-over after driving. It doesn't take long to just do the windshield and front of the RV. The longer they bake on the more difficult to remove.

If you have a new vehicle, I'd suggest you have someone buff out a couple of coats of a polymer based polish. Rejex is one of those. The polymer coatings last longer than wax.
As others have said, soaking with water brings good results. I've also used those bug and tar removers but I bet they take off any protective coating, as well.

use griots garage bug guard on the front, they almost hose off, and what's left use griots garage bug remover, quickly gets rid of what's left.

I use the bug guard on the front trailer cap as well. again, quick blast of a hose removes 90% of the bugs.
