Washing your vehicle

Wash your vehicle regularly with

cold or lukewarm water. Never use

strong detergents or soap. If your

vehicle is particularly dirty, use a

quality car wash detergent. Always

use a clean sponge, washing glove

or similar device and plenty of water

for best results. To avoid spots,

avoid washing when the hood is still

warm, immediately after or during

exposure to strong sunlight.

During winter months, it is especially important to wash the vehicle on a

regular basis. Large quantities of dirt and road salt are difficult to

remove and also cause damage to the vehicle.

Any gasoline spilled on the vehicle or deposits such as bird droppings

should be washed and sponged off as soon as possible. Deposits not

removed promptly can cause damage to the vehicle’s paintwork.

Remove any exterior accessories, such as antennas, before entering a car

wash. If you have wax applied to the vehicle at a commercial car wash, it

is recommended that you clean the wiper blades and windshield as

described in Cleaning the wiper blades and windshield.

After washing, apply the brakes several times to dry them.

Waxing your vehicle

Waxing your vehicle on a regular basis will reduce minor scratches and

paint damage.

Wax when water stops beading on the surface. This could be every three

or four months, depending on operating conditions.

Use only carnauba or synthetic-based waxes. Use a cleaning fluid with a

clean cloth to remove any bugs before waxing your vehicle. Use tar

remover to remove any tar spots.

Avoid getting wax on the windshield, or on any surfaces which appear

coarse or bumpy. If you have wax applied at a commercial car wash, it is

recommended that you clean the wiper blades and windshield as

described in Cleaning the wiper blades and windshield.
