Default Slick Leading Edge

There are probably a hundred reasons why I shouldn't do this.

Bug guts on the leading edge just don't mix and are hard to remove.

Being on a grass strip compounds the annoyance.

I washed it good and waxed with Rejex.

Then a spray of Pledge furniture polish like you would on the coffee table.

The bugs wipe right off.

Anybody tried this??

Been using pledge for years. Spray and wipe after each flight. Works well.

Hey Guys,

M brother just arrived here for the summer with his motor home which was covered in bugs. Today he gets up and starts to wash it. To get rid of the bugs, he wets them down with the hose and gets out a dryer softener sheet and wipes the bugs right off. Rinses and then washes as normal.

I seen it and it was effortless.

Has anyone tried this?

Steve
