Default Why I hate Florida...

All this happened in like 150 miles of road, from I-95 to 528 to the turnpike to I-75.








Does anyone know some good stuff or chemicals to get the bugs of the front??? these things are a pain to get off.

I work for a rental car company, and we get a lot of bugs on the front of our cars, we usually spray them down with citrus, scrub with a brush, then power wash and most of the time they all come off. They do sell bug remover at parts stores

I hate it too, my 92 is just as bad...

I had just washed, clayed, and waxed the whole car then was slaughtered by those bugs when I took the car out on I4 for only 8 miles and it honestly was just as bad as yours. I got them off of my hood so it won't eat my paint away, but my bumper is going in for new paint on Tuesday.

I use Turtle-Wax Bug & Tar and it works awesome if you just take your time with a towel.

Also a car wash has a special chemical they use that works quite well if you don't mind going there and paying $15 that is...
