El paso

Learned from a detailer a few years ago that used dryer sheets make removeing bugs off your vehicle easy. I just put them in the wash bucket and use as needed, just remeber to wash back over that area when your done.

He also told me not to wash the towels I use for waxing/polishing with detergent that contains fabric softener because it contaminates your waxing job and tends to leave streaks behind.
