For those of you lucky enough to live in a state where you experience love bug seasons, you understand the importance of cleaning their carcasses off your car pretty much ASAP (you should do this for ANY bug that hits your car)
This picture is after APC soak, dual bucket wash, clay, followed by IPA wipe.
Turns out that they are beyond repair, and the hood will have to get repainted. Wet sanding will probably get rid of some of these, but a majority of them are so deep they catch the MF towels as it passes over.
Acid guts + clear coat + not cleaning them off + Florida sun bake = paint damage.
And this was supposed to be my first detail on a black vehicle! Just my luck.
