Taking my car on the highway to the states and each time I come back with a VERY dirty car with hundreds of dead bug bodies splattered everywhere. IS this bad for the paint on the car, is there anyway to avoid this or any tips on how to treat the car after every time haha

[JSALES]

Painters tape

[GabAlmighty]

Wash it

[iEatClams]

Yes this happens on road trips, and yes you wash it.

[TheSalesman]

Use bug remover. Drive slower.

[Qmx323]

As mentioned above,

make a "bra" out of painters tape

[boatcaptain]

slipstream!! so the car in front of you will catch all the bugs

[kunoman1]

Drive in reverse

Hello rock chips!

[tonyzoomzoom]

don't drive down to the States

[JAYWALKER]

get a bra lol

[twitchyzero]

ive noticed the bumper is more prone to rock chips driving in the US than locally...is that mainly contributed from the faster traveling speed?

[fliptuner]

Soap and water or bus

[Manic!]

Plastidip it.

[sdubfid]

3m film is really popular in alberta or write a letter to the Washington government to start a mosquito cull

[finbar]

Hang tin pie plates.

I used to wash my car and put a coat of wax on the front end before a day trip to the USA.
That helped a little when it came to washing them off after the road trip.

spray Deet on your car :troll:

[rsx]

Dip your car in citronella.

[xjc11]

spray diluted degreaser then wash it. degreaser helps to remove bugs more easily

I use chemical guys all clean diluted 10:1

The US road surface breaks down faster and ends up with pebbles that hit your car.

Get headlight lashes

bug spray the front of your car

[68style]

Just take some polish or wax and rub it all over the front of the car before you go... when you come back, just wipe it off and all the bugs just wipe away with it. Easy. I've used this method for years even coming back from as far away as Las Vegas and it works like a charm. Doesn't look quite as stupid as a taped up frontend either.

Alternatively, AutoGlym (for example) sells an intensive bug/tar remover at Canadian Tire.

[J-Chow]

Tailgate the car in front of you, utilizing that vehicle as a meat shield for bugs.

Then, take in as much draft as you can and pass it on the right lane.

:troll:

[vafanculo]

Here's an idea. Don't take your eyes off the road and avoid the bugs.

What's with this generation always looking for shortcuts as solutions to their problems.

[hchang]

Erect a sign on the front of your car "Warning for bugs: Get out of my way"

Trust me it works
