How to Clean Insects From Cars: What to Do Before and After

🧽 For Stubborn Bug Stains

1. Exfoliate With a Clay Bar
Just like exfoliating your skin, a clay bar kit helps remove embedded grime. Use it with a lubricant and work in small, circular motions. This is especially helpful for bugs stuck in the clear coat.

2. Use Scratch Remover for Damaged Areas
If bugs have left visible marks in the varnish, apply a small amount of scratch remover or abrasive polish to the area. Rub gently to smooth out any rough spots.

βœ… Final Tips and Precautions

Before Cleaning:

  • Park your car in a shaded area. A cool surface makes the cleaning process safer and more effective.

  • Avoid using abrasive tools or harsh chemicals that can damage your paint.

After Cleaning:

  • Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean microfiber towel.

  • Reapply wax or polish to reinforce the protective layer.
