Best Off-The-Shelf Bug & Tar Remover?

[Low Class Yuppie]

My girlfriend's dad just purchased an Equinox a few months ago and I'm going to surprise him by claybaring and waxing it while he's out of town. There's lots of bugs on the front bumper, and I was just curious what you guys recommended for bug & tar remover that I can buy "off the shelf" at Napa, Advance Auto, etc. I don't want to clog up my clay bar with it, and I'd like to have something I can use when I'm spot cleaning the daily between washes. Any suggestions?

Stoners tar remover.

I've tried most of the off the shelf bug removers and they are crap. Son1c posted a video a while back with this stuff and I bought some right after he posted the review. I will tell you it is the shiznit for sure. I have never used it on tar, but it will help with bug removal for sure. I have heard that stoners tar removal is awesome for tar removal, but I have never used it.

You can't buy Auto Finesse off the shelf though.

Thanks. I may order some of the Auto Finesse stuff. I might try Stoner's, too...I love their glass cleaner. I've read that it can haze plastic so I'll just have to be careful. I might just use both, one for tar and one for bugs. Thanks so much you guys!

Im personally a fan of dawn for that. If its extra bad hit it with some simple green but be sure to rise it quickly and thoroughly.
