Best protection from bugs and road grime when traveling.

[WemaBoss]

We're planning a trip this Friday and I'd like to know what is the best process for minimizing the bugs and road grime I'll be collecting on the front of the car. I've read that some people use Saran Wrap and peel it off at intervals along the way. Not too sure about that method.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I prefer to use Ultimate Wash and Wax Anywhere before heading out and when I get to the destination. Although full taping of your car may offer more protection. Just make sure you use automotive tape or tape for delicate surfaces.

D156 should do a good job of not letting the bugs stick.
Bug protein is very hard to remove. so prevention is the key, you even might want to use a polymer wax (nxt) on your grill and leave it on. just put a light coat and off you go.

Rental car, no bugs get on your car. Problem solved.
