Undiluted car wash soap works well and recommended by Duragloss. They make a good bug and tar remover. What I like is it’s not too harsh. Doesn’t strip sealant and the fumes don’t make you dizzy.
Best Bug, Turd and Tar Remover?
- Thread starter Gebo
- Start date
Start light, If nothing else works, then Citrol 266. That stuff is magic, but get the regular version. Not the low VOC version. Also the company states they don't recommend you use it on clear coat or single stage paint. But it wont hurt anything as long as you don't leave it on too long and rinse thoroughly.
Just used some my Burb. It doesn’t run very badly and allows some time to soak into the dried bug juice.
All I've ever used is WD-40, and or Kerosene.
If someone could find a way to bottle bug juice, you would have one of the best glues on the market.
I use the turtle wax bug and tar remover. Normally I wouldn’t use turtle wax products as they’re usually awful. Grabbed that once because it was the only thing in the store and it works phenomenally. I’m sure you already know this but after using, make sure to re-apply whatever wax or sealant was on the area obviously if used on a windshield you’ll want to re-apply rain-x or aquapel if that is something you use since the bug and tar remover will pull that off.
Uh, wait a minute. How does Gebo get turds on his car in the first place...? And from what animals?"Best bug, turd and tar remover"
Quit your job and work for someone else ..
At first glance, I read bed bug, turd and tar remover... 
Bed bug, turd and tar remover"......for mattresses in vile motel's smoking rooms.
Turtle Wax Bug & Tar Remover and the other bottle I have downstairs both work well and contain denatured alcohol.
The Turtle Wax one worked on rock hard, years old tree sap.
Also, I'd daub cheap wax on the rocker / lower door region of of cars which drove through liquid cow manure. Don't buff the wax.
The manure dries hard and fast. wash off is easier.

Agree to most. KAIO and P21s aren't. I can attest to KAIO but have heard praise for P21s on the Autopia forum. Likely there are more.

best thing is your eyeballs and a good coat of wax. scan the surface of the car often and address them as soon as you see them. a coat of wax will make them easier to get off with minimal effort. for the front and mirrors i use a spray wax from time to time. keeps that coated well and only takes a few minutes
