    Bug Slide.... it's awesome!

    I won a sample size kit at a raffle and this stuff is awesome! By far the best bug cleaner I have ever used on the bike. Just ordered a large size kit for my 5th wheel camper.

    +1 on the Bug Slide. Been using it for years. A 50% mix of water and hydrogen peroxide works faster and would be more economical for your camper.

    A solution of 50% water and 50% white vinegar in a spray bottle also works great to remove bugs, road grime, etc....Ride safe

    I just heard recently hydrogen peroxide works well. Haven't tried it. I wonder if our soft paint would be affected by peroxide?

    I started a new job about 3 months ago and came across a product I sell called Third Power. Comes in a 32oz spray bottle. I tried it and I think it works great. Sprayed it on and it softened the bugs.

    Correct, it's still paint. It contains particles that do not reflect (no gloss). But it's still paint. You can also put wax on matte paint and it will not make it glossed. It may change the hue, but it would take hundreds of coats of wax to gloss it.
