BUGS.......I hate cleaning bugs.

[Roundtowner]

I hate having to spend lots of time cleaning the bugs from the front surfaces of our TC. What tips and techniques do you use to keep your rigs looking clean? What are the best products available to clean and prep the finishes to prevent the bugs sticking? Once you have bugs everywhere, what is the easiest ways to remove the bugs? When I come home, I want to spend my time enjoying the grandkids, not hours cleaning bugs. Thanks for your inputs, Larry.

Turtlewax bug remover, combination of soap and solvent. I tried waxing my cab over, but now every time it rains the waxy runoff stains my windshield.

Works best for me when I use warm water with the dryer sheets.

If you want to just hose the bugs off use Rejex

Works great on the front of a fiver.

Dryer sheets here too. Then hit it with 303.

Yes, dryer sheets will take the wax off, too, but I find that, once you wax the area well, you only need to soak and wipe the bugs off with a sponge or rag.

Used dryer sheets do work well to remove them. Then, as suggested above, you need to keep the area well waxed.

Have to go with the dryer sheets. Just scrubbed our camper after the bugs had set for a few weeks (yes we were busy and it was the first chance I had for washing the camper) and the bugs just wiped away with the dryer sheets. Price is right too!

Dryer sheets here. As far as hoseing off after dew, I live in the desert, I'd be waiting a long time for some dew!

303

This stuff makes the bugs just melt, a few seconds of spray nine and then just a run over with a light brush, then hose off.

Spray Nine

Get some, then use it. Worth every penny.

Yep, Robsouth has got it.
