Bugs on bumper/hood

Anybody know of any solvents that will remove the bug splashes from bumpers, i use a soft sponge to wash the car and that doesn't do it. Any solvents out there that will not damage the paint?

I use windex with ammonia, or goo gone. But you can use anything that says it's for adhesive removal will work. the key it not to let the bug guts dry on your car, especially after a long road trip.

Poorboy's Bug Squash works great if you're into boutique products....Stoner's Tarminator for more OTC products.

You can also use a small spray of WD-40 and rub lightly and it will remove it all. It even removes tar. Won't damage anything.

80 grit sandpaper does the trick too
