The summer is here in spirit as temperatures climb ahead of predicted highs of 34C on Friday. And for drivers, it's also a time for their cars being splattered by bugs and stained by tree sap.
The sticky smears can blight their windshield, headlights and bonnet are full of small speckles of grime caused by driving through swarms of bugs and sap dripping from trees. Motorists are now being given suggestions from LeaseCar.uk and its sister site LeaseElectricCar.co.uk on how to keep their cars clean during summer, when the bug and tree sap season is in full swing.
A spokesperson for LeaseCar.uk said: “It may be a difficult task when the grime is left on the car for a long time, as insect stains, tar and sap will bond to the paintwork. But with the right cleaning solutions and speedy reactions, you can easily get rid of the dirt yourself, using either specialist products or just generic household items.
