I used Tarminator on the front bumper twice with a bug MF and nothing and I have used Bleach white 3 times on the tires and they still look dirty. Let me get some pics up.

Try claying on the front. The bug splats will probably not come out completely, as after years I'm willing to bet that they've etched the paint, and only wetsanding and a rotary will fix them.



For the tires, just dress them with a good dressing and they'll look good. They're probably clean after 3 shots of Bleche White, its just faded rubber thats making them look dirty.
 
I did clay it and it did not do much. I figure if I can get this car 100% clean I could get anything clean since this car has just about every type of stain on it.

You will find that applying some cleaner polish by hand, such as Meguiar's #2 Fine Cut Cleaner along with the Tarminator on the same cloth will usually help to remove aged old bug splatter.



With the tires, you are better off only using the bleach white one or twice followed by a thorough scrubing using a nylon brush and plenty of car wash soap. That process will usually clean the tires and leave them streak-free, ready for your favorite tire shine protectant.
 
What polish did you use? Make sure it is a chemical (not abrasive) polish, something like AIO will work well.



For the tires, use a brush with the Bleachwite
