Frequently Asked Questions
What is W8 Bug Remover used for?
W8 Bug Remover is a powerful cleaner designed to safely dissolve and remove insect remains from your vehicle’s paint, glass, and trim without damaging protective coatings or sensitive finishes.
Why is it important to remove bug splatter quickly?
Bug splatter contains acids and proteins that can etch into paintwork if left untreated. Bug Remover breaks down these residues gently but effectively, helping you avoid permanent staining or clearcoat damage.
Is Bug Remover safe on ceramic coatings and waxes?
Yes—Bug Remover is fully compatible with ceramic coatings, sealants, and waxes. It cleans without stripping protection or affecting gloss, making it ideal for regular use on coated vehicles.
How do you use Bug Remover?
Spray Bug Remover directly onto the affected areas and allow it to dwell for 3–5 minutes. Then rinse thoroughly with water. For stubborn spots, repeat or lightly agitate with a soft microfibre cloth or wash mitt.
Can Bug Remover be used on all exterior surfaces?
Absolutely. Bug Remover is safe for use on paint, glass, plastic trim, chrome, and number plates. Avoid using it on hot panels or in direct sunlight to ensure optimal performance.
How often should I use a bug remover like Bug Remover?
Use Bug Remover as needed—especially during spring and summer months or after long motorway journeys. Regular use helps prevent etching and makes your wash routine easier.
Is Bug Remover better than using regular car shampoo?
Yes—while shampoos are good for general dirt, they can struggle with stubborn organic residues like bug splatter. Bug Remover is formulated specifically for this task, offering more effective and targeted cleaning.
Does W8 leave any residue behind?
No—Bug Remover rinses clean without leaving streaks, smears, or film. It’s designed to work seamlessly within your wash routine without requiring extra steps.
