Love Bugs
 
Does anybody know when the love bugs are here? I want to get a good coat of wax on the car before then. Thanks, Bob

Just keep a couple of dryer sheets handy and get yourself a bottle of that spray wax for the front end of your car. the spray wax isn't as good as paste wax but it is much easier to apply so you can do it daily if you desire. A wet dryer sheet will take the bugs off easily.

I also use clear coat from a spray can but that might be a little overkill.

I use stuff called REJEX. Easy on/easy off. I used it on the front of the motorhome and the love bugs washed off with just a garden hose.
