  • How Do I Get Rid of Bug Stains?

    Not sure if this is the right category but My 6er is black and I have 100 002.5 bug stains on my front bumper. Of course I have tried a few different things such as scrubbing, but nothing has worked so far. As most would know the front bumper is plastic so this makes it a little more difficult.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

      to expensive...use soap/water and a dryer sheet. then wash afterwards. they take the bugs right off with little to no pressure

                well until recently i had never even waxed my car-- i was going to have it professionally detailed but decided against it since it was too expensive-- so any and all tips that i find now on keeping my baby squeaky clean are great--this one included!!

                thanks blue

                      baking soda ftw! Someone told me to try that one time and it's incredible. The bugs just come off in a few swipes.

                        This also works well if SOMEBODY forgets to take gum out of their pants and you get gum on the inside of your dryer..

                            Depends if you are trying to move the actual bug gibs or the etching they leave behind. Bug remover works great, spray it on there and just let it sit for a couple minutes but don't let it dry. If you are trying to remove etching, then use a scratch remover.

                              I have a fail proof way that is better than all of these.

                              Don't drive at night . Yeah with me working 3-11 and the long drive to and from work, my car gets caked with bugs every night. It does get old.
