    Angry Bugs - NO!

    That's it... I've tried product after product... I detailed an '07 Chevy TrailBlazer SS (almost 500hp!) last night, and the buge were horrible!!

    (ADD Moment: Why do the people who can AFFORD these super machines, treat them like poop?)

    Anyway - long story short - BUGS. Lots of Bugs... suicide bugs, diving head on!

    Is there something I'm over looking here, I just want those bugs to melt off without scrubbing so hard I get a case of "Tennis Elbow," (no joke, I've had a sore bicipital tendon for 3 months now - and it won't go away)

    THANKS GUYS!

    Ha - nice! (Wish I would have joined forum 3 weeks ago)

    Oh well, I guess I'll learn from my mistakes... I've basically given up on buying 'store brand' off the shelves types of products. No offense to Advanced Auto - but it's all over-priced and generic.

    THANKS GUYS!

    A good Bug cleaner is the Duragloss Bug Remover


    Dissolves and removes bugs, oil and tar with ease. Works great on painted surfaces, fiberglass, chrome and glass. Will not harm clear coated paint or remove durable polishes..


    You can get from Carquest or I believe AG sells it also....it just disolves bugs instantly....and will not remove a good sealant...
