I`ve been using Kenotek Anti Insect. I can not say if it`s better than McKees or Poorboys Bug Squash, but I can tell you that it works, so I`ve really no reason to look for another product.
Bug Squash works really great. Never been disappointed in it and mostly I am stunned when I rinse it off. I rarely ever have a "well maintained" car in my garage for a detail. The BEST part of it that I dont think the others offer is that it is DILUTABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3:1 which makes 3 32 ounce bottles from one for $16 or $.16 per ounce. RK @ 1:1 (which states is for well maintained vehicles) costs $.40 per ounce. Kenotek at 33.8 oz is $.47 an ounce.
3D has one, cheap gal. too. I`m working with CGs bug soap as a pre spotter at 10:1 liking it so far, it`s basically a shampoo diluted that eats bugs & tar.

Griots bug and smudge remover ...
I use Bug Squash as opposed to an APC only because it`s not supposed to remove your LSP. And as dcjredline pointed out, you can dilute it. The recommended ratio is 3:1 which seems to work fine in combination with a bug sponge.

Got my tinfoil hat on.
To answer the question, I have used Bug Squash in the past. Currently, with Collinite re-aplied every so often to the front/leading edges, I simply take some extra time to soak the leading surfaces where bugs may accumulate and remove with regular wash solution.
In my experience it effects the LSP. Remove I dont know but it sure changed the water reactions.
I think APCs and bug remover affect new LSPs the same way Dawn does, by leaving a film that may inhibit beading. Now on deteriorated LSPs I don`t know.
This is exactly how I use it. Never had an issue with it removing my LSP.Quote:

I`ve used it as well, but Autopia doesn`t sell it. Liked it too.Quote:
