    Its been in the 20's here and we still got bugs.
    They are pretty harsh on windshields and fairings.

    When we have luv bug season. Chucktx favorite time of the year.

    You have to git them off immediatley, or the Acid from them will take the paint and chrome off.
    And they stick like butter.....:rant:

    From the ranch's theirs some really big jucey bugs.

    Got a buddy that has been using it.
    Never seen Wizard Wax anywhere around here much less heard of it.

    And I've put wax on stuff, they still stuck.

    Even had a dude say to spray some Pam on yer hood of yer truck.
    No they don't stick to the hood, but trying to wipe the pam off is like trying to wipe Crisco frying grease off too.
