Yep, and You can use HP straight if You want. I use it straight after a trip when the bug are dried up. Spray and let it set a few minutes, rinse or wipe off.

Default Got hit by something big in Montana

Hit my knee so hard I thought I'd been shot. When I looked down I saw blood and was sure i'd been shot. Pulled over and realized it was the remains of something airborne. What a relief, but man o man that thing hurt. I laugh when I see some guys out on the highway without windshields. Some of those impacts must really sting huh?

The little nats are thick up here now. I just went for a short ride the other day and it looked like the fairing had hair when I got back.... lol

I am going to give the HP/H2o tip a try.

At least the bugs are not nearly as bad as the time I connected with a bullfrog in mid flight at 60mph.... now that was a mess.
