Bug Guts and Black Paint--An Ongoing Saga
I have 400 miles on my black E63. Here in Georgia, especially in the dairy county where I live, there are hordes of little creatures that commit suicide on the front of the car.
I have a clear bra, but I am wondering how often I need to wash the bugs off of the car. Every time I drive for 10 miles out here I harvest a new crop of critters, so it would be absurd to wash it every time I drove it.
And please, a mediated response if you will; I know there are detail freaks on this forum who wash their car every day and wax it every week.
Since there is a strong experience base with black E55s and E63s (black being a favored color), there should be enough experiential information to determine a reasonable length of time that bug bowels can be left on the car and removed without permanently screwing up the paint.
