Step by Step Process
Whether or not you prepared your car beforehand to help make the love bugs come off easily, Mr. Clean Can has the step by step process for cleaning them off!

- Step Four: Rinse your car off once you’re finished scrubbing. Once all of the bugs are gone, be sure to have your car cleaned with car wash soap!
- Step Five: Protect your car! Be sure to use some of the preventative measures we listed previously in this post. They can help you save time when dealing with love bugs on your car in the future!
