The nose piece on my car WAS about near perfect. Well I had to leave my car outside and some bug guts got baked on in the 90* heat. After washing the car they don't come off. Any fix for this?

Mine is the same way, all the way across the front of it too. I heard the best thing to do is take some claybar to it and it should come off. Thats what I was told by KevinSS.

Wet them down real good to try and loosen them up, you might even take a soaked towel to drape across the area, then clay the area. Soaking them first should help.

I agree with Kevin. A clay bar should take then off without a problem. But first try to get as many off as you can.

I've heard of but never used a clay bar. Where is the best place to get one?

 

You can get a Clay Bar at just about any big parts store or Paint Supply Store.Also from the Zaino Distributors...

General consensus seems like the Clay Magic Bar (Blue one,not the red one) is a good one. I use the Clay Magic Bar along with Their lubricant (Lubri-Shine) all the time at work and swear by it.BTW, There is a red Clay Magic Bar that is more abrasive...be careful with that one.

If you can't get Clay Magic,try Zaino or Mother's bars,stay away from Meguiars.

Use lots of lubricant,don't use on hot surfaces,and keep the bar clean by kneading it (Like Silly Putty),and you should be OK!

The clay bar I recieved from Zaino was yellow. Is this the standard one to get?

Thanks for the replies. I'll be picking up a clay bar this weekend.
