Dryer Sheets

We just returned from a trip to Oregon to see our Grandkids. The front cap was covered in bugs and I was attempting and struggling with several different ways to get them cleaned off. I finally thought to do a search on the MOC website to see what members use for the same issue. I couldn't believe how many people recommended dryer sheets. I had never heard of that before, but was willing to give anything a try.

I could not believe the results! They work great! I am now a believer! What a great website!

Do you use those dryer sheets wet or dry?

I use wet and I also use Black Streak Remover. At times I actually miss using the old elbow grease, but then I slap myself upside the head and regain my senses. I see the last bottle we got is Black Streak and Bug Remover.

BTW, they don't have to be new dryer sheets, the used ones work just as well.

Been using the dryer sheets since I read it on MOC. I use the used sheets most of the time but have used the new ones too when I didn't have used ones. They actually leave a coating on the front cap and from the first time I used them the bugs are coming off much easier!

Wet,dry, new, used, you will smell nice when you are done are all good points plus...they are also suppose to help keep mosquitoes away!! Most important they really do work for bugs on the cap.
