Just leave 'em there for a few months, they get kinda dry and crumbly, then ya can just flake 'em off...........

no mesh here. My jacket is leather. a damp sponge gets the bugs off nicely, works pretty well on my helmet too

Pull the pads out and spray them with a high pressure hose. Whatever doesn't come off is meant to be there.

windex and brush seems to work pretty good. doesn't seem to have hurt it any.

Most DIY spray washes have clamps on the walls for your floor mats. Just hang the jacket on one of the clamps and blast away with high-pressure soap, rinse, and ride.
