Bug Removal

I went back into the archives without any luck. I recall a few years ago that someone had fairly good luck removing bugs without stripping the wax as well. Any ideas what that process and/or product may have been?

Bucket of Turtle Wax soap & a long handle brush with another bucket of elbow grease.

I put a nice , good coat of paste wax on the front cap almost every month... I hose down the front cap and lightly brush it at every nights stop during travels..

So far haven't found a magical elixir or a good fairy to do it for me, the only other option is a little elbow grease.

We use used dryer sheets. Just get them wet and rub over the bugs. Works great!
