Quick & Easy Tips to Protect Your Vehicle—and Your Health

🚗 PAINT PROTECTION: Your Car’s Paint Is Under Attack

The weather is one of your vehicle’s worst enemies. Harsh sun, bugs, bird droppings, vehicle exhaust, and even dust can quickly damage your vehicle’s paint.

According to Progressive.com:

“UV rays and heat exposure can lead to paint fading and oxidation, upholstery damage, dashboard cracking and other material breakdowns. Foreign substances like bird poop, bug residue, or dust can cause corrosive damage if left on the car too long—especially in the sun.”

Just like your skin, your vehicle needs protection from UV rays. Over time, heat and sunlight break down your paint’s protective clear coat, especially when mixed with contaminants like:

  • Bug splatter
  • Bird droppings
  • Airborne pollution
  • Exhaust soot
  • Smoke and dust

The acids in these substances bond to the paint, speeding up corrosion—and when you try to remove them after they’ve baked in, they can actually chip the paint

☠️ 1 bug can equal 1 chip.

✅ SIMPLE STEPS TO PROTECT YOUR PAINT:

  • Park in a garage or under a carport whenever possible
  • If out and about, park in shaded areas
  • The American Automobile Association advises to wash and wax regularly and, by using a Bugs Off Pad,  extend the life of your clear coat
  • NEVER leave bugs or bird droppings on the paint. Take a pad with you to the Drive-Thru Car Wash to remove the bugs the car wash doesn’t!

🧼 WINDSHIELD CLARITY: See What You’re Missing

You’ve seen it: bugs, grime, bird droppings, and soot caked on your windshield. Then it rains—you hit the wipers—and you’re just smearing it around.
This doesn’t just affect visibility—it damages your wiper blades, too.

❗ The Risks:

  • Can’t clearly see curbs, potholes, cyclists, or barriers
  • Risk of impaired right-side vision when turning
  • Rubber wiper blades are porous and break down faster when exposed to chemicals in spray cleaners and washer fluids
  • Dried-on bugs tear wiper blades

✅ THE SOLUTION:

  • Clean your windshield (and all glass) with Bugs Off Pads
  • No chemicals = no smears + better for your lungs and skin
  • Clean from the ground—no ladder needed by using an available pad holder
  • Safe around kids and pets

If a cleaner says “not safe for children,” why is it safe for you to inhale or touch?

🌡 INTERIOR CARE: Heat Damage Happens Fast

Inside your vehicle, UV rays can crack dashboards, fade leather and fabric, and raise interior temps dramatically.

✅ PROTECT YOUR INTERIOR:

  • Park in the shade or use a garage
  • Use a sunshield visor to block rays
  • Close the sunroof shade if you have one
  • For leather, consider occasional conditioning to prevent drying and fading

🧍‍♀️ YOUR HEALTH: Fewer Chemicals, Cleaner Results

Most liquid bug removers and spray cleaners contain harsh chemicals that:

  • Strip your wax or damage your paint
  • Corrode wiper blades
  • Smear glass
  • Are unsafe for children and may trigger skin, eye, or lung irritation – read the warning labels!

✅ GO CHEMICAL-FREE:

  • Bugs Off Pads clean your entire car (paint, glass, trim) with just water or car wash soap
  • No harmful runoff into groundwater
  • Safe for your family, your car, and the environment
