ā¢ Immediately remove items such as gasoline, diesel fuel, bird droppings
and insect deposits because they can cause damage to the vehicleās
paintwork and trim over time. Use MotorcraftåØ Bug and Tar Remover.
ā¢ Remove any exterior accessories, such as antennas, before entering a
car wash.
ā¢ Note: Suntan lotions and insect repellents can damage any painted
surface; if these substances come in contact with your vehicle, wash
off as soon as possible.
Exterior chrome
Note: Never use abrasive materials such as steel wool or plastic pads as
they can scratch the chrome surface.
Note: Do not use chrome cleaner, metal cleaner or polish on wheels and
wheel covers.
ā¢ Wash the vehicle first, using cool or lukewarm water and a neutral pH
shampoo, such as MotorcraftåØ Detail Wash.
ā¢ Use MotorcraftåØ Custom Bright Metal Cleaner. Apply the product as
you would a wax to clean bumpers and other chrome parts; allow the
cleaner to dry for a few minutes, then wipe off the haze with a clean,
dry rag.
ā¢ Do not apply cleaning product to hot surfaces and do not leave
cleaning product on chrome surfaces for a period of time exceeding
that which is recommended.
ā¢ Using other non-recommended cleaners can result in severe and
permanent cosmetic damage.
Underbody
Flush the complete underside of your vehicle frequently. Keep body and
door drain holes free from packed dirt.
Cleaning plastic exterior parts
Use only approved products to clean plastic parts.
ā¢ For routine cleaning, use MotorcraftåØ Detail Wash.
ā¢ If tar or grease spots are present, use MotorcraftåØ Bug and Tar
Remover.
