The Old Grey Whistle Test

Yeah, this winter has hung on way too stinkin long. Tired of the cold, tired of the dry air. Sun and heat please!
 
Lovin' the south Texas weather but we'll pay the price this summer with our lack of water. Our "winter" ended about a month ago.
 
Same here in LA. Love the mild winters, but the summers are brutal in the valleys! In August, it is normally to have weeks of 110+.
 
The weather here in Northern Utah keeps changing from week to week, last week 50s, this week (now) upper 30s, mid next week back to mid 50s.
 
Oh yes, it's 78 here in Cape Coral, FL right now at 7pm on Friday, 3/22. Got to love Florida's winter season. Back in WI, I'd be shoveling snow today, but instead I spent much of today in the pool. ;)



Another point... cars stay clean here in the winter, Florida's dry season, and only need an occasional QD to keep shiny.



But, Love bug and pollen season is approaching rapidly.
 
I cant stand love bugs but I am getting ready for them. Id like to see a specialty removal product for them to help get rid of them easier.

Bugs are a daily challenge here in Florida, especially during love bug season. Imagine driving through a blizzard of little black bugs every time you get behind the wheel. Many of the casualties end up on the glass, but don’t turn on the wipers as they will smear the soft carcass debris across your windshield and no amount of washer fluid is going to remove it.



The carcass debris is very acidic, and if left for any length of time will cause the porous clear coat to occlude (a non-transparent ‘clouded’ area) or may cause etching (a depression in the paint or glass surfaces) so they should be removed ASAP



The Professional Bug Sponge - a dual-sided scrubber and foam sponge in one. Use the textured side to release any debris from the paint surface and then flip the sponge to wipe away the loose debris. The Professional Bug Sponge has soft, honey-comb pores that are gentle on all automotive surfaces.



To remove - pre-soak heavy bug contamination with 1z einszett Anti-Insekt + Pre-Cleaner, which easily removes bug carcasses but doesn't remove wax / sealant paint protection. Soak a micro fibre towel and let it sit for 4-5 minutes (it can be held in place with detailer’s clay) before removing. Pre-soak heavy bug contamination with 1z einszett Anti-Insekt + Pre-Cleaner, which easily removes bug carcasses but doesn't remove wax / sealant paint protection.



Then use a presoaked then wring damp Professional Bug Sponge the open-cell construction 'grabs' foreign matter on your cars paint surface and safely removes it. Then use an Optimum No Rinse (ONR) solution, 2oz per gallon / distilled water. It’s completely harmless to the paint or glass surfaces, a very efficient and safe way of removing harmful baked on bug debris due to its non-abrasive nature.
