Other than that - use a decent sealant on the car instead of wax, and wash the bugs off as soon as you can!
Use pam or something similar...spray a light coating

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I'm heading to a DE this weekend and it's bug season around here! Is there a simple way to mask the front of my car (mainly bumper and mirrors) to allow for quick and easy removal of bugs? (I'm not interested in getting a car bra, nor do I want to drive 70 miles in a red car with a blue nose (i.e. masking tape). Are there any waxes, sprays, or other simple coatings that I can easily rinse off along with the bugs?
Giots Garage has a spray on bra that many have tried but I do not know the effectiveness of it. Once when we went to College Station here in TX the bugs were so bad that I went to the grocery store and bought Pam and sprayed the front of the car. A big mess but it worked. The bugs were so bad that the races had to be cut down to 10 minutes because the bugs were clogging up radiators and over heating the cars
Use Pam or something similar...Spray a light coating and then wipe it off when you get to where you are. Dont let it cook in the sun. You can always respray b4 your return trip
No Love bugs...or that is what we call them? Two bugs screwing, flying around stuck together doing it
Don't try this at home
I opened the hatch of my 928 to get my gear out and about 500 of them ended up in the car. In the motel room....everywhere! I stopped at a car wash half way home to clean the radiator of the 928 out for the drive home. The following year we had crickets but not as many.
mmmmmmm Pam on auto paint in sunshine - I'm not loving the way that sounds!
The spray on bra sounds interesting - saw a demo video - looked cool
Other than that - use a decent sealant on the car instead of wax, and wash the bugs off as soon as you can!
I hate love bugs so fricken much!!
BTW, the Pam DOES work...like i said, just dont leave it on for longer than you have to.
You only need a light coat and you can wipe at your destination, do your stuff, reapply on return, then wipe again...Even if you are going through the HOT summer day PAM is NOT going to do MORE harm than those fricken bugs will do...
And if you have a decent coat of wax on your car like you should, the Pam won't hurt a damn thing!
Take it for what it's worth!
