2011 White TSX V6 Tech alot of work...

Everytime I take it out, when I return I have to take a towel to wipe off the bug guts on the front and the brake dust on the wheels.

I remember the brake dust on my black RL eventually got less and less, but I don't ever remember having to clean the front as much...

With clear bra, wouldn't you still get the bug guts on it??? So I'll still be cleaning it after every drive?

BTW I was lucky to find a white on black 2011 TSX V6 with Tech. Vin ends in 00049. Just searching the country, I found another with a VIN of 00138... I'm guess less than 500 in the color/option combo were made.

and yeah, i think the only solution you have is to wipe it everytime

I need to make my first million with some sort of spray that's like Teflon and nothing sticks to what is sprayed.

Maybe I try some PAM on a part of the car not noticeable if it screws the paint.

I thought of getting white but opted for the palladium silver. The white is beautiful but tough to keep clean. In FL here, talk about bugs and roadwork. Your car is doomed here for splattered love bugs and rock chips. If it is not love bug season then its moths when it is dark. I have at least 4 nice chips on fron bumper and hood. Its a 2010 with under 15k miles. The silver does a good job hiding dirt though. I had a black first gen before this. I would like to get a coat of wax on her. The really hot weather is already showing up some days.

That's why I always keep a bottle of water and microfiber towel in my car at all times.

That's the thing that sucked about living in the South or more rural places, bugs. I lived in San Antonio and also Missouri. I would always have bugs splattered all over my bumper every time I went driving. I now live in the DC metro area and it's not a problem at all. I guess I am not going fast enough and there are not enough bugs in the concrete jungle.
