Months ago I ran through about a million (literally) locusts crossing the road before figuring out why the road surface was moving. Ever since there's been cement-hard bug goo on the car that I haven't figured out how to remove. Individually I can pick them off with my fingernail, but that's not optimal. Have you guys found anything suitable that can be applied, maybe left to soak, that's able to soften that up?
Somewhat related, after being overwhelmed by all the pretty colored quick detailer products, any you guys recommend as being better than most?

i've always used kerosene for road tar and bug goo.
Stoner makes The Tarminator.
That's what I usually use for this stuff. It gets sap and bug guts off of vehicles pretty well. Let it soak on there for a bit and it softens that crap right up!
Most bug juice softens nicely in water. Needs a few minutes of soaking.
Try "Bounce" fabric softner sheets. Just moisten and rub gently on the car.
Works well for me.
this could very well be a very dumb suggestion but wd40 removed the duck tape leftovers and residue that had once held my passenger window up with minor ease and a micro-fiber. Other than that I use a waterless wash from Amazon.
