Hydrogen peroxide and water in a 50/50 mix works great. Spray wait a few minutes and wipe.

The only peroxide I see for sale in the stores is a 3% mixture. Are you say'n to cut that 50/50 with water?

I spray with a cleaner polish and let it soak for awhile. I dont use anything but microfiber when wiping bike.
For the bug infested front of my truck I spray it with bleach (cool temps only) and blast them off with a water hose, works great!

I use this stuff called "stripper juice".

You can spray it on anything. Dirty or clean. I have not had any problems with it. I'm my second can of it!

The Harley bug remover stuff works really well on dead bugs. A bottle lasts me two summers for the most part.
