WORM on my fender dried up and hardened. Cant get it off!!

So im gonna do a mothers scratch removal and 3 stage wax tommorow, and on my passenger side fender i got what looks like whats left of a worm and it hardened on my fender. I tried bug and sticker remover but the bugger wont come off. Any other suggestions before i start waxing?

or you could take a hair dryer/ heat gun and warm the little dead bugger up and see if its easier to get off..

i treat stuck bugs like i treat my molding and badges.. lol

Get a Wet Cloth or what not, and hold it on or leave it on and let it soak into the dead worm, then it should be tons easier to clean.

Good luck

I don't think waxing will help your cause as you would just be applying the wax over your worm. I would try googone first as stated above and if that doesn't work give it a go with a clay bar. Be sure to use plenty of lube to keep it really moist as you clay. If all else fails you need to polish not wax. The polish is an abrasive and will wear it down while the wax will just coat over.
