    bug and tar remover 27 February 2018

    Arrived well package and is an excellent product to remove bugs from the car body and grill. The Tar removal needs a little more effort but works better than some other brands like Halfords etc for the removal of road tar

    Good stuff, good price, would buy again. 23 January 2016

    I bought this product as a cleaning agent for my motorbike. Bugs are a bug-bare to any motorcyclist, it's hard enough scraping them off oneself, never mind the bike. Anyhow, I figured that if it could dissolve tar deposits it should also loosen oil and grease in those hard to reach places. I figured right, not only did it soften the tar deposits on my exhaust pipes, wheels and under the engine, it also loosened up all of the oil and grease that collects and builds up on the swing arm around the drive chain, the chain cover and the side stand. All I had to do was wait about 1 minute and then jet wash off, no scrubbing or wiping, no broken fingers trying to get into the nooks and crannies, and none of those annoying water marks that some other cleaners leave behind on your plastic bits, simple. I must admit though, I did have to do this twice, but only because I've been lazy and there was an unusually heavy buildup of riding grime. If I had to find a fault with this product, it would be that the nozzle delivers quite a squirt each time, so the 500ml bottle tends not to last very long when used for the above purpose, so depending on how big and how dirty your bike is, it could work out to be an expensive clean. Other than that, I think this is great stuff, and will most certainly buy some more in the future.

    Got The Result I Wanted 21 January 2016

    I put the remover to work on loads of small tar marks on the car's paint. About 50% went after one go but the other 50% needed another go. Still far better than other attempts with shampoo! I bet will be as good with insects on the front of the car!

    espares bug and tar remover review 01 September 2015

    This does exactly what it says - squirt it on, wait 30 seconds and wipe off. We live in a rural area so there are always lots of bugs to remove from the front of the car when it is being washed. This is usually hard work, but with the bug and tar remover it's easy. Very cheap too - buy some and make car washing easier!
