How to effectively remove insects from bodywork? – the most important rules
How to remove insects from the car’s surface? The most important rules are:
- act quickly – don’t wait for dirt to dry and penetrate the paint,
- use dedicated car cleaning products – such as TOPAZ Bug Remover or CITRINE Traffic Film Remover,
- avoid aggressive tools – use soft sponges and microfibers,
- don’t clean the car in the sun – a hot surface makes it difficult to remove insects from the bodywork and can cause streaks,
- rinse thoroughly with water – product residues can be harmful to paint if they remain on the surface.
Following the above rules will allow you to enjoy a clean and well-protected bodywork for a long time.
How to remove insects from a car hood?
The front of the car is the most exposed to dirt, so you need to know how to remove insects from the car hood, headlights, or bumper without damage. The basis is using paint-safe products, such as TOPAZ Bug Remover. If the insects are heavily dried, choose a pre-spray with CITRINE Traffic Film Remover.
Additionally, regularly protect the paint with protective coatings – such as SAPPHIRE Ceramic Spray Coat, waxes, sealants, or ceramic coatings. They create a barrier that significantly hinders insect adhesion and facilitates their later removal.
