What the best stuff to use on my car to clean it when we got to shows as being white it attracts a lot of bug guts.
I know Ryan will have the answer for me, Obviously I just want a spray to clean it. I'm unsure as when the car is dirty and you spray on a cleaner will you just be moving the dirt about and scratching the car |

Cheers Scotty
I didnt mean to when I wash and detail the car I mean on the drive to the shows my car gets a bit dirty with the bugs etc, so when we get there what can I use there and then to clean it off I see some people spraying somthing on their cars and wipping off the muck. But seeing this makes me think if your wipping a dirty car will it scratch it as you cant wash it. |

I just use any reasonable quality quick detailer and a microfibre cloth regularly turned.
If the car is clean before you set off and its just a few bugs etc, then it works fine. https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/exter...tailing-sprays Obviously wouldn't do this on a dirty/heavily dusty car. |

P40 Detailer from Elite Car Care or Clean Your Car dot co dot uk.
Great product that works on pretty much any surface. And a pack of baby wipes for the wheels |

Yeah so long as the car is well protected (sealed and waxed) then any quick detailer will do the job
![]() If the car isn’t waxed then bugs are more likely to bond to the paint like any other contaminant... As with everything - proper preparation and protection is key for easy show wipe downs... U thinking for simply jap? If so, I might have a free Sunday the weekend before if you wanna give her the once over weather dependant? Ryan

I tend to use Meguiar's Rapid Detailer. Works pretty well if the car has already been cleaned beforehand, I then top the wax up with Meguiar's Ceramic wax spray and she's shiny again!
