Do You Need a Bug Shield?

Every driver on the road has experienced the misery of dealing with bug splatter all over the front of their vehicle. When you’ve recently washed your vehicle, bugs, dirt, and debris all over the front of your car is one of life’s greatest annoyances. While bugs on your windshield can be easily wiped off, when they get on your car’s paint, it’s a completely different story. Insects on your vehicle can damage your vehicle’s paint if they’re not immediately removed.

That’s where our exterior protectant pros at Mobile Installation in Brooklyn Park come in to help. In this blog post, we’ll talk about one of our most popular interior accessories: bug shields.

The Benefits of a Bug Deflector

One of the biggest concerns detailers deal with is removing bugs. An experienced auto body technician or detailer understands that it’s better to avoid bugs entirely than to remove them before they can cause damage. One way to avoid bugs is through the installation of a bug deflector. Although it may look like a simple piece of equipment, a bug deflector can keep fewer insects from damaging your car or getting on your windshield.

Bug deflectors serve two main functions:

1.      To protect your glass from impacts due to small debris and bugs.

2.      To redirect the airflow so you’ll have fewer insects on your car.

Protection from Road Debris and Grit

When sand, small rocks, grit, and other road debris strike your vehicle from the road, they can cause scratches and pitting. Although these types of debris are very small, airflow can carry them at a high enough speed that they can do harm to your paint job. Not only can a bug shield reduce damage from bugs and rocks, but it may also mitigate the damage when you hit roadkill.

To determine if a bug shield is right for your car, consider the following:

●        Does your vehicle end up with a high number of bug impacts?

●        Do you like the slick look of a bug deflector?

●        Are you worried about protecting your paint?
