Candy White owners beware!

[Island Cupra]

I have just washed my new Candy White Leon Cupra and discovered that insects have been been using my Cupra as a toilet

It would appear that insects are attracted to the Candy White paint and once on the car S**T leaving little black dots on the paint

I Zymol waxed the car straight after picking it up and the inset muck ame off with a little light rubbing

I thought I would let other Club Candy members know so they can keep an eye out for the S**T

I think they also like Silver, I have that problem as well.

is it not their sh!tty little footprints?

hopefully itll just be your temperate, mid atlantic climate mate.
insects up here usually die of hypothermia long before they take a cr@p.

Mild climate mate The insects should be wearing snorkels, we've had so much rain! Freddytdi has had the same but on silver

They do seem to congregate around the top of the windscreen don't they. Little beggers

the biggest problem i have is hitting big moths while driving at night/dark. its like some footballer emptying his nose on your windscreen.
i guess they can dodge out of your way @ 40mph .

[goble]

leave it for a while and mask up circles you could soon have the first candy white dalmation effect car

 

[seadragon]

I have my car Supagarded so its not a prob but the damn tree sap from the trees at work is really winding me up

I have the same problem with yellow, don't try cleaning it later on in the evenings either - flies will flock to it if it's half as popular as mine!! it makes drying it almost impossible.

Ended up using the chamois more like a fly swat

I am starting hate the white colour, I can clean the car every day, but its still dirty :-( and flys they love my car. I should order zenith grey.

 

[andycupra]

think you will find that any car thats waxed can be mistaken for water by insects. fact that its white just makes matters worse.

Oh I remember th joys of having the ovni yellow - insects must have thought it was just one huge flower!

Think you find they like any colour, they are just better camouflaged on black paint

But then so is dirt, may only have to wash car once a year
