Bugs on the windshield
#22
I rarely get bugs here. Only on the highway, but even then, not that much. I only get really bad bug splats when I am driving in rural areas. I was driving up to PA a few months ago to visit some relatives and within a 30 minute period on I81 in Virginia, my windsheild hit so many bugs I was having a hard time seeing out of it in some spots. It was actually kind of funny though having to stop at a gas station merely to clean all the bugs off the window so I could see clearly.

Here's a tip to make bugs easier to remove: Liquid Pledge (I like the lemon smell). I use it on my bike windshield and the front of my BOX (front end and windshield). The bugs are much easier to remove because they dont stick. Just reaply when they start to stick! On long trips to shows saran wrap works on the bumper to keep the paint clean till you get there, then just peel it off. Sticks by static cling and air pressure.

ummm, $2.87 for saran wrap vs. $450 for a clear bra...

pledge? don't you get a funky haze on the glass and paint?

The pledge is mostly for the bumber paint and, NO it does not leave a funky haze. I use it all the time on my Motorcycle windshield, if it left a haze I wouldn't be able to see clearly. Try it ,if it doesn't work then don't use it. It makes it harder for the bugs to stick and easier to clean
