There’s nothing quite like a long ride on your Harley-Davidson®. Open roads, roaring engine… and unfortunately, a front end plastered in bug splatter and stubborn tar spots.

If you’ve ever tried scrubbing baked-on bugs off your paintwork or chrome, you’ll know—it’s not fun. Worse still, doing it wrong can damage your finish.

That’s where the right product (and technique) makes all the difference.

Why Bugs & Tar Are a Bigger Problem Than You Think

Leaving bug splatter and tar on your bike isn’t just about looks.

Over time, they can:

  • Etch into paint and clear coat

  • Become harder (and riskier) to remove

The longer they sit, the tougher the job gets.

Biodegradable – better for your bike and the environment

 

How To Remove Bugs & Tar (The Right Way)

Follow this simple process to get your Harley-Davidson looking showroom fresh:

1. Wash First

Before applying the product:

  • Make sure surfaces are cool and out of direct sunlight
  • Wash and dry your bike thoroughly

This prevents dirt from scratching your finish during cleaning.

2. Shake & Spray

  • Shake the bottle well
  • Spray directly onto affected areas
  • Let it sit for 1–2 minutes

For stubborn, baked-on grime:

  • Leave for up to 5 minutes max
  • (Don’t exceed this or use in direct sunlight)

3. Wipe & Rinse

  • Gently wipe away loosened residue
  • Rinse thoroughly
  • Admire the results
