Sure thing.

I don't know what to tell you about it though. Depending on how bad the bugs and stuff are, we might not be able to do much about it. Some of the bugs down here are tough, and won't come off without a good wash and claybar.

Which .. takes awhile. Although, since you just had it detailed, it probably won't be as bad.

something I learned while in Bama, spray Pam or whatever on your car. the olive/canola/vegetable oils will not harm the paint, and the bugs almost melt off the car. One of my instructors claimed to do it all the time, and his car's front end was very clean, with the clear coat in one piece, and the paint in nearly immaculate condition.

PAM also works well on your front wheels too. Helps keep the brake dust off of them.

wish I had known about that some time ago...bugs stuck on my front end and mirrors have actually stained the paint...the detailer was able to get everything off but the wax in the places where bug guts acid has been is there to stay...only repainting will change that now...I'll have to keep the PAM thing in mind for future use...especially before take off somewhere on vacation.
