Of Bug Wash Windshield Washer Fluid!

I really hate the residue left by the bug fluids, but with the high carbohydrate contents of the bugs setting up like hard candy on the windshield, the regular fluids just don't cut it.
RainX helps a bit too......

yep, I'm in pretty much the same boat as you... I've always gone through washer fluid like it's candy... hate the damn bugs!

when I bought my used JK a month ago, I had to drive to Tulsa to pick it up (about 2 hours from Fayetteville)... it was a rather warm day out, and apparently there are some pretty gnarly bugs flying around over there in Oklahoma 'cause I got caught most of them on the way home... almost emptied the full thing of washer fluid in that ~120 miles...

found out later it pissed the wife off all the way home... we'd driven over there in her car, and she drove behind me on the way back... her wipers suck, and her washer doesn't work at all, so she was getting all my residual spray and couldn't do anything but smear it around... (she didn't find it quite as funny as I do...)

I won't even drive her car, 1) b/c it's a '99 mustang... it's uncomfrotable and I can't see shit out of it, and 2) b/c of her broken winshield washer... as far as I'm concerned, a car without a windshield washer and a reservoir full of fluid is worthless...
