Review on Armor All Bug & Tar Remover - Powerful Formula (16 fl oz) by Will Bremer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It is also said to be a tar remover.

Disappointing at least. The label on the bottle says "Bug and Resin Removal" which is why I bought it. I keep my car spotless and clean and wax it every 2 weeks. During those two weeks, some tar collects on the rear wheel arch and sometimes ends up on the side skirts. This works for insects, but not for resin. To be honest, a pressure washer will do the same thing to bug guts. However, it is more convenient to simply spray on dead bugs and wipe them off after a minute. Harz is a different story. It just doesn't work. You still need to apply a lot of elbow grease. Even then I don't think this product was needed as I could just use my fingernail and carefully chip off the dried resin. Pros: - Works well with dead bugs. For really stuck bugs, leave on for about a minute. Cons: - not thick enough to hold on to the sides (too watery). Great if a bug fell on your hood and died, but most of them are on the front bumper and this solution is too watery to properly stick to your side - doesn't do pitch squats.

Pros
  • Streak Free Formula; When used on glass, spin to clean part of microfiber cloth for final polish
Cons
  • Compatibility
