Lovebugs I Hate Those Things

I have few distractions, I walk. I wash my car. I drive my car. Now with these things out, I don't drive my car. I don't trust the ceramic coating to repel their acid bodies.

They can be particularly hard on white paint too it seems. I got PPF on my front end in addition to the Ceramic and it seems to help with these, but I still try not to drive with the love bugs out.

Hope you are staying safe. I'm itching to get back to the track.

That’s what we call southern problems, 28* degrees this morning up North means no bugs

We are staying in as much as we can. Just the occasional out to the market for food that we missed getting delivered.

They're supposedly attracted to white vehicles, big fun as they're already bombing me here!
