Help
Labor day weekend drove the CE to Brenham, Tx around Houston for the wife's family renunion. Anyway about 100 miles out started being bombarded by Love Bugs they got all over the car thank God I had the bra on. Now I can't get the little sob's off my paint on the hood,mirrors,ect. I've washed it tried wax, even the Meguiar's scratch X nothing works. Help Please.

We don't have love bugs in the northwest but I've had bird poop etch my finish. After getting the poop off, I needed to buff the spot with Scratch X, then 3M swirl mark remover, then polish. I used my random orbiter buffer. Did the bugs actually etch into the clear coat or do you still have lots of bug deposit on the car that you still need to get off?
Claying may do it since it removes almost all debris. I also use Bugs B Gone spray by SeaFoam. Spray it on a dry surface, wait a minute, and wash off with a sponge. Works fantastic on bug deposits.
