I used the Eraser one time on the paint. The bugs on the front end came off easily with a bit of liquid to break the friction. When I looked at that area under halogen lights it was scratched like a big dog. I had to power buff  the mess with polish twice. Never again on paint for me. It works but you pay the price. Can you imagine Wheelbroker's show car all scratched up and trying to compete?
It has many other great uses but paint is not one I'll do again unless I'm prepared to buff it out.

the best way ive found to remove the bugs from the bumpers is to use a soft Fabric softner sheet/dryer sheet.

I've used this on all my toys over the years, and has always done a better job than anything you can find on the market.  It will not hurt your paint job either, as I've used these on 80k+ car in the past and present.

i dont dampen it at all, just take the soft micromeshed sheet and it will take the bugs right off...tar is another animal however.

It really works amazing!

When i was first told to do this i was like, nooo way.  Real worried about scratching etc, one day i manned up, tried it out, and am now a true believer in it.

Give it a try, if you are worried like i was, try it on a small section underneath first to ease your stress level.
