Default Bug & Tar REmover suggestion

What brand of bug and tar remover do you guys recommend? I've used TurtleWax brand in the past with good results, but that was years ago. I don't want anything too harsh. I need it to keep the bugs off the front end.

Also, read a few threads here about the Wet Paint product. Went to the website and it looks pretty cool. Seems a lot of you use it. Unfortunately, I don't have a garage to park my '08 Coupe in, so I'd like something easy to use to keep it shiny. Is this what you guys recommend?

Most of the bug & tar removers use the same ingredients. A few that are exceptions are citrus based. With any you will need to rewax/reseal the surface after using.Iprefer the one by Stoner's but they all work fairly well.Wet Paint is a very good product, you could do far worse.

I found a small M/F towel bout 4 x 6 thats for bugs and it works pretty well .. I don't like the sprays.

I have a fleece type blanket I put over the front of the car and wet down while I'm doing interior cleaning etc and in 20 min it softens most up ..

What brand microfiber towel did you find that is specifically for bug removal? Where did you get it?
Enquiring minds want to know!

I've been using this stuff for about 6 months, I really like it.

I have a couple of MF bug scrubbers from Detailer's Paradise. They work great, I don't think he sells them any longer.

I cut it 3 to 1 with water and it works very well.
