Default Bug Splatt!!

I love summer. But, one thing I dont like is the bug carnage on my 'Vette.
By the end of summer, one of the things I look forward to in winter is that bug splats on my 'Vette go away.
With the temps in the low 60's today, I pulled the cover off and took her out for a brisk workout.
I was kinda disappointed that I didn't have any bug splats anywhere.
Now, I am looking forward to some high speed bug killin' !!!
C'mon summertime!!!

My biggest gripe are those stinkin love bugs in the summer wind up caking on your front end everywhere. I like rainx windshield washer fluid but that doesn't do anything for the rest of the car.

Default Rejex

Try a couple of coats of REJEX and that a top coat of wax...extra coats on the front end and side view mirrors......bugs and stuff usually come off with water..........by the way...REJEX on the windshield also works great....bugs off with water

I'm gonna have to get some RejeX. Their FAQ's actually mention the product being effective against love bugs. Anything to make my life easier with this black car.
