I couldn`t resist this review with all the good comments about PB products the past few days and the questions about PB Bug Squash, enjoy.

Products Used:

Poorboy`s World - Bug Squash (http://www.autopia-carcare.com/poorboys-bug-squash.html#.U5O_GxbYKzA)

These bugs have been baking on the front of this vehicle for at least a week.

Bug Squash diluted 1:3 sprayed on the front fender and left to dwell for ~30 seconds.

PB Bug Squash can be used straight and would have saved me a few steps. I just wanted to show what the 1:3 dilution would look like applied and rinsed without agitation. My preferred method is diluted 1:3 paired with the bug sponge from the start.

Note: PB Bug Squash also goes great in a foam gun/cannon. Pair it with your favorite soap.

Here is a small preview of PB Glass Cleaner for those that have not had a chance to try it out. I will try to get a darker windshield to do a 50/50 with this product. PB Glass Cleaner is by far my favorite glass cleaner.

Great product and review. I just finished the last of my bug squash saturday morning. With 250+ miles a week, i pick up my fair share of buggage! I like the fact diluted, it still works great and does not remove a lsp!

Next on the block is DP ROAD KILL BUG REMOVER. It can also be diluted 1:1
Look for my review when i try it.

Most bug removal products I`ve used strip LSP. Did you notice this? Your bumper looks great - no etching that I can see.

Ha, this is not my personal vehicle and has probably never seen a LSP. Maybe Pockets can comment on the product being LSP friendly?

Bug Squash is great stuff! We get some nasty bugs here in early spring that are real honkers. I`ve noticed the best way for me is to pre-soak the front end and mirrors (1:3) and wash like normal. They come off like they weren`t even there. I`ll definitely be carrying a full bottle with me on my vacation up to PA; my family might look at me funny washing that car the next day after traveling 15hrs :lol:

A review from Jeff.....

Its the best bug remove I have for regular use. Dilluted 31 it wont remove you LSP. Spray, let it work for about 30 seconds and the bugs are removed with easy. For tar and sap use it full strength, you will have to reapply your LSP after using it full strength.


Pros:
Cleans well
Dillutable
LSP safe @ 31
Price
Pre soak in the winter.

Diluted, I never noticed stripping my LSP. I would rinse, spray on, wash as usuall.
