\"Gyeon<\/p>\n

What is the best product to use for bugs?\u00a0The most practical answer is prompt cleaning. Do not delay that weekly car wash for a week or two, when you know better.\u00a0 With that stated, I believe there are a few good options to use for cleaning during this wash process.\u00a0 The Gyeon Bug And Grime<\/a> has become one of my favorite specialty cleaning options.\u00a0 The benefit of a dedicated product is that it can better navigate the line of being effective at what it does without being too strong to the point of requiring extreme caution in use.<\/p>\n

This product, like many milder dedicated products gets a bad label as a non-effective product for bugs and grime, due to there being stronger comparable products.\u00a0 I have even underestimated how effective this product is.\u00a0 So often people have an intense urge to attack minor problems with the strongest recommended cleaner possible.\u00a0 A specialty cleaner that is stronger (than car soap) but safer than a caustic cleaner can help reduce the chances of causing damage to the paint and surrounding areas.\u00a0 Damage to cars in general with strong products is a common problem.\u00a0 I have seen chemical staining from the use of aggressive products that dried on the paint (less margin for error).\u00a0 Also, car paint protection products are more adversely affected by a stronger cleaner.<\/p>\n

Spray on the surface directly and allow a slight dwell time.\u00a0 I always allow 1 minute before my car wash process begins.<\/p>\n

\"Bug<\/p>\n

The instructions state for you to not let the product dry on the surface.\u00a0 If you are looking for clarity with these instructions, I usually leave the product on the surface prior to agitation and removal from 1 to 5 minutes.\u00a0 Heat and sunlight on the surface will shrink that window in half or lead to me waiting for cloud cover from the sun.<\/p>\n

As mentioned before, this may be a more forgiving product than a highly alkaline all-purpose cleaner.\u00a0 But I would NOT leave this product on the surface without washing, rinsing, or foaming the area with soapy water for longer than 5 minutes.\u00a0 After allowing the product to dwell on the surface proceed to rinse, foam, and or wash the entire car how you normally would.<\/p>\n

\"pretreat<\/p>\n

I also like to liberally spray this product on horizontal surfaces of cars that have been neglected.\u00a0 I am particularly referring to cars that are frequently outside, have no protection, and have gone a lengthy period without washing.\u00a0 I have found that I can professionally (more safely) remove the grime caked on the top of cars more efficiently by pre-treating the surface with Gyeon Bug And Grime.<\/p>\n

\"neglected<\/p>\n

\"clean<\/p>\n

The new Gyeon opaque bottles are also an appreciated change.\u00a0\u00a0 Though I love the design of the older bottles, I have also been concerned in the past about their fragility.\u00a0 These seem more durable.\u00a0 I love the aesthetic of these bottles as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
