Expert Notes

Deturner EXpert Insect & Bug Remover is designed for the immediate removal of insects from a car's bodywork, helping to prevent the discolouration and pitting that insect residue can cause if left on the paint. It dissolves and lifts insect matter and other organic contamination, and is safe on paint, plastic and glass, including surfaces protected with a ceramic coating or wax. Spray onto a cool, dry surface, leave for 2 to 4 minutes without letting it dry, then rinse with pressurised water or apply an active foam first. It suits drivers who want a dedicated product for bug splatter after a motorway trip, and it pairs well with a snow foam and a standard shampoo for the rest of the wash.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Front bumpers
  • Bonnets
  • Wing mirrors
  • Windscreens
  • Number plates
  • Front grilles
  • Door edges
  • Ceramic coated paintwork

Caution: Insects can leave marks and pitting on paintwork that cannot be removed with any chemical product, so treat splatter as soon as possible.

The Brand

Deturner

Deturner is a Polish car detailing brand from Bydgoszcz. In its own words, the original vision was an auto detailing brand that carried the spirit of great automotive culture, and it all started with one wheel cleaner, Bloody Wheels, before growing into a complete care line. Deturner develops its own formulas in its own laboratory and makes them in its own production facilities, and its aim is products that are easy to use for everyone, from enthusiasts to professional detailers.

At The Drivers HQ we stock Deturner online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop, including the Finish Quick Detailer, the Cream Tire Dressing and the Interior Dressing.

Deturner wash, wheel and paint care

Pre-wash and bugs. Fluo Foam is a concentrated, pH neutral active foam that softens dirt before the contact wash and, Deturner says, does not harm coatings or waxes. Use it at 1:8 to 1:14 in a foam lance or 25ml per litre in a hand foamer, on dry paint out of full sun, and leave it at least 5 minutes before rinsing. EXpert Insect & Bug Remover dissolves bug remains and other organic dirt on paint, plastic and glass: spray a cool, dry surface, leave it 2 to 4 minutes without letting it dry, then rinse or foam over it.

Wheels. Bloody Wheels, the product the range began with, removes brake dust and flash rust from wheels and paint. It is pH neutral, so Deturner rates it safe on all wheel types, and it clings to the surface so it works on the dirt for longer. Spray it on a cool wheel, leave it around 5 minutes, agitate heavy dirt with a brush and rinse well.

Gloss and protection. Finish Quick Detailer works in easily, flashes off by itself and removes hard water marks. Ceramic Detailer adds glassy gloss, slickness and strong water beading, and can be used over a ceramic coating: prime a 350 to 400gsm microfibre with one spray, then use 2 to 3 sprays per panel. Hybrid Spray Wax blends carnauba and synthetic waxes for gloss, slickness and beading.

Deturner tyres, glass and interior

Tyres. Cream Tire Dressing is a water and SiO2 based cream, free of solvents, for tyres and exterior plastics. It restores a fresh black look with a satin finish, spreads evenly without a greasy film and helps slow the build-up of dirt. Clean the tyre with a tyre cleaner or APC first.

Glass. Hydro Glass Cleaner is a ready to use glass cleaner with strong degreasing power for tobacco film, road dirt, fingerprints, insects and water spots, and it leaves no streaks. Deturner recommends two waffle weave microfibres, and gloves so the grease from your hands stays off the glass.

Interior. Ready Interior Cleaner is ready to use on plastic, vinyl, upholstery and even leather, with a neutral pH and a gentle scent. It lifts dirt, dust, grease and old dressing in a wipe, and preps the surface for Interior Dressing, a solvent-free dressing for plastic, vinyl and rubber that restores colour, leaves a satin finish and adds UV filters and an antistatic layer. Apply the dressing to a dry surface with a cotton applicator.
