Bug Shield
Ok Guys and gals, I need help. I have a Penda bug shield that was on my expy when I purchased it. I just noticed that the whole shield has very noticable foggy spots. Is there anything I cant put on it to get rid of these spots without ruining the finish? I contacted Penda and they stopped making bug shield a couple of years ago and didnt offer any suggestions.
Thanks
John B

Group,
I have a '98 black Expy, but it's a bear to keep clean and shiny!
I have waxed it about every 2 weeks, but it never looks clean the next day. How do you guys keep your black Expy's clean and shiny? Even my paint job looks a bit dull at times, any suggetions on how to make it shine again??? I hate water spots...
Thanks!

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 09-Jun-02 AT 00:45 AM (EST)]This might be overkill for most folks but, i use a 3 part cleaning system from Meguires. After you wash, step 1 is a paint cleaner, step 2 is a wax, and 3 is the polish. Also during the week till the next washing, I keep a bottle of Meguires "quik detailer" on hand for any cleaning i need to do from daily road grime. It also works well on glass as long as the glass is cool and not hot, but i know you know that already.
Good Luck.
Btw guys, my expy is actually burgandy. It looks black cuz i used a cheap camera for this pic. But I still use this cleaning practice on this color plus my recently sold black eclipse.

Chris, I also use Mequiars products but I saw that Superman Expy on this board that was so shiny it looked wet!!! I was told to go to zainobros.com and chech out their products. I havent purchased them yet but the product sounds pretty amazing.
Tim, try using Scratch X by Mequiars before you wax. It's an extra step but it really helps with the shine...
