Getting the cquartz put on motorcycle was wanted to know how you get bugs off? Used to use meguirs quick detailer in between washes can i use that or have to use something else? Thanks
 
I just use a rinseless wash like Tad mentioned. Pre-soak the bugs briefly and they come right off.

Ugh the a great time to check out Echo.

What Year/Make/Model (and paint color) motorcycle? Windshield? Got pics?

Being an old biker myself there is a old biker trick to removing bug exoskeletons.
Take a WET towel that is soaked in HOT water and lay it on the bugs. Do not rub.
Let the towel sit 10-15 minutes. Lift it off & they should come off easy with EcH2o.

I would keep some EcH2o mixture in your saddlebag with a couple of BOA towels.
I'd get a Spray Bottle w/ Trigger (24 oz.) and put in 2oz of Ech2o and 20oz of water.
The Ech2o and spray bottle should last you a long time and be less $$$ in the end.
Ech2o is a concentrate. That means you are not paying for water so it is cheaper.
NOTE: Do NOT use the same towel(s) on your paint that you use on your wheels.

Now for that added pizzazz! I'd add half a bottle of the Reload 100ml to the bottle.
Mixture 2oz Ech2o (Ech2o mix 10:1), 2oz of Reload and 20oz of water. Total=24oz
I actually snagged this formula, but I have since dubbed it "Merlin's Magic Elixer".

To be safe, I'd wait two weeks before washing with Reset or spraying with "Elixer".
* It does not take that long for the coating to "cure" but I'd give it that extra time.
