I used it for everything but the seat (for obvious reasons) and the leather bags.

Just spray on and wipe around. It does not really wipe off but dries on the surface and leaves a slight haze which can be wiped off with a dry cloth.

It's good on the windshield as the bug juice slides off easier.

Use unscented if you can. Don't use lemon ... the bees seem to like that scent.

I've been using lemon pledge because here in Iowa the bees are disappearing (damned farmers & their chemicals), so I'm trying to attract them back to Iowa

Is the pledge bad for leather? Make the seat to slick?

I used a different product on my leather bags.

Yes .... if you use it on the seat you'll find yourself sliding off. I don't put anything on my seat except for my wife's hands.

Yeah I really like the bugslide. It does excellent about not streaking. Do you use the ICE pretty much the same way as you would BugSlide?
