    I did a somewhat formal product review of Anti-Insekt + Tar Remover yesterday and want to share my findings.

    BEFORE: A nice bumper with good bug coverage.

    Here (passenger side) we have the Anti-Insekt starting to dwell

    Since most people use a foam gun/cannon to let suds dwell on the paint and lift up dirt and stuff. I went ahead and did this as the control. It's about 3fl oz of CG Honeydew in my Gilmour Gun (no pressure washer).
    Here is the soap dwelling on the driver side.

    Results: Einszett Insekt + Tar Remover worked a little better than dwelling soap. It will probably work better going straight to pressure with the hose as it seems to be pretty slick.

    A little better than soap? Not exactly a ringing endorsement eh?

    ive found it helps loosen bug guts. less scrubbing = less possible damage.

    Thanks for the review! Just keep in mind that Anti-Insekt isn't supposed to make it touchless bug removal. It eliminates the need for scrubbing or using a bug sponge by softening the bug's exoskeleton (chitin). So when you agitate it with a wash mitt it will come off easily. The same goes for sap.

    I tried it out today and it worked great! I let it soak for a bit then used my pinnacle safe scrub and the bug's came off no problem!
