Default Bugs

Man, hubby's wheels look rough... even with a bra on it, his car is a spotted mess of crusty bug bodies. Outside of soaking the car to 'soften' said crusty bodies, is there any way of getting that groady icky bug-butter off the paint without damaging it or putting in a lot of effort?

Apparently keeping your car waxed helps to keep them off but once they are there, that's a different story. I hear they sell special sponges and sprays for cleaning off the bugs.

Yeah, the trouble is that if you are not careful then you could end up scratching the paint. I think you have to wash your car often, that way the bugs don't have time to become permanent.
