Default Bug Gut Marks Off Clear Bra

Looks like I still have some bug gut marks on my clear bra after washing. What's the best way to remove? Thanks.

Mr. CLean Magic eraser sponge. Also for tire marks. Wonderful. I would not use it on paint or other plastic surfaces though.

i use 'goo-off' cleaner for everything - and it is the only one good solution that takes off cones marks from clear bra after auto-x.

Had not even thought about using the "Magic Eraser" on the film for bug guts etching(will try this next time on a inconspicous area) my first thought was it will badly mar the film but until I try it myself...

For cone or tar transfer on the film I use a product from Premier called TTR and it is a outstanding product for removing almost everything on clear film.

I'm still not "sold" on this whole clear bra stuff. It seems like the stuff can scratch just by looking at it.

To clean stains use a citrus based cleaner (P12S Total Auto Wash) and a damp bug sponge

I use this on my DD's clear bra and it works perfectly. The P21S TAW has enough lubricants to prevent scratching when used with a soft MF and medium/light pressure.

Clearly; the best protection if you’re proud of your vehicle. Paint Protection Film (PPF) AKA Clear Bra is a thermoplastic urethane film that is applied to the leading painted surfaces of a new or used car in order to protect the paint from stone chips, bug splatter and minor abrasions. Designed to provide years of protection against road debris, environmental elements, bugs, and abrasions and it can be removed without harming painted surface. The film has UV inhibitors to maintain the clarity for the life of the installation. It will not change color or turn yellow.
