I use Wonder Wipes for getting tar and bugs off, works a treat!

We bikers use a product that was developed for aeronautical use called ACF50 to protect from salt during the Winter months. It is incredible. I apply it to my bike late October and leave it until the last frost in the Spring. No washing at all. The bike is caked in ******* by this time but once removed it comes up like a new pin. Awesome. Keep it off your discs and pads though!

I always but the big bottles with the pump up spray bottle as I generally only use a spray for awakward intricate areas and apply using a paint brush elsewhere as the spray tends to waste loads. This time of year, get it to room temp or sit in a bowl of hot water for a bit before use. It is a thin liguid so only apply sparingly, but making sure you do cover everything. Any excess will dip off and be wasted. It really is an awesome product.
