Springtime in Colorado means sunny days, open windows, and… bug splatter. As the weather warms up, insects are out in full force, and unfortunately, your vehicle’s front end often bears the brunt of it. At Speedy Sparkle Car Wash, we know that bug buildup isn’t just annoying, it can actually damage your car’s paint if not properly removed.
Here’s how we help you fight back and keep your vehicle looking its best all season long.
Why Bug Splatter Is Bad for Your Car
Bug guts are more than just unsightly, they’re also surprisingly corrosive. When left on your vehicle, bug residue can:
-
Etch into clear coat and paint, especially in hot weather
-
Harden over time, making it even more difficult to remove
-
Cause long-term staining if not cleaned promptly
Even a few days of buildup can leave marks that are tough to undo. That’s why regular washes during bug season are a must.
How Speedy Sparkle Fights the Bug Battle
At Speedy Sparkle Car Wash, our exterior wash processes are designed to safely and effectively remove even the most stubborn bug splatter:
High-Pressure Blasters
We use targeted, high-pressure water systems to rinse away loosened debris, giving extra attention to high-impact zones like your grille, bumper, and windshield area.
Soft-Touch Wash Materials
Our gentle yet effective cleaning materials safely lift away leftover grime while protecting your paint—no scratching or scrubbing required.
Protective Wax & Sealants
After cleaning, our Speedy Ultimate+ and Ultimate+ Washes include Sparkle Shield: a layer of wax and sealant to create a protective barrier. This helps bugs slide off more easily on your next drive and makes future cleanups quicker and easier.
Pro Tip: Don’t Wait Too Long
The sooner you clean bug splatter off, the less likely it is to cause damage. Even if your car doesn’t look especially dirty, a quick wash can prevent long-term issues. If you’re a frequent highway driver or commuter, consider one of our Unlimited Wash Club Plans so you can stop by as often as needed—bug-free and stress-free.
