I wash & dry the truck with it on; just squeeze the sponge under it. I got lazy during a wax and didn't take it off -- only waxed as deep as I could (I figure with the shield there, it's protected anyway, right?). When I'm not as lazy, I spend the 2 minutes it takes to remove & replace. Just be careful not to overtighten & strip them (of so I've been told...).

If waxing is the only thing preventing you from getting a bug sheild, don't let it stop ya'.
