BODY
CARE
When
washing
the
vehicle, use plenty
of
cold water. Never
attempt
to
remove
dust
or mud from
the
body
work
when dry,
as
this will damage
the
finish.
Car
shampoos will assist washing.
Use
only preparations
of
reputable manufacture.
When
dust and mud have been removed with sponge and water, dry with a chamois
leather.
Provided
that
the
car
is
kept
clean by frequent washing,
it
will be found
that
polishing
is
almost unnecessary. The
bodywork
can be protected with a good
soft
waxpolish, using a haze remover first
to
remove all
"traffic
film"
and old polish.
Duril1g
the
winter months many countries use salt on
the
roads
to
assist in
the
clean.mce
of
ice and snow. Thoroughly wash
the
bodywork,
the
underside
of
the
·bodywings, and
the
chassis, either weekly
or
more frequently, depending
on
local
conditions,
to
remove any salt deposit and prevent its corrosive action.
Windscreen
When
washing
the
windscreen,
the
wiper blade may
only
be lifted away from
the
screen a small distance,
to
avoid damaging
the
pantograph mechanism. Wash
the
wiper blade with clean water.
Bright
metal
Wash
with
the
bodywork, rinse thoroughly with clean water, allow
to
dry, polish
lightly with a
soft
cloth.
Alloy
Wheels
Wash
frequently, using a car
shampoo
and a
soft
brush. Make sure
that
any salt
is
washed off immediately, before
it
can
eat
into
the
alloy.
Upholstery
and
roof
lining
Normal usage
d~rt
should
be
removed with warm soapy water. Avoid vigorous
detergents. Mud,
after
it has dried, can be removed by brushing. Oily stains can be
removed by careful, very small applications
of
Thawpit, Fabriclene,
or
a similar
cleaning agent.
It must
be
used in moderation otherwise halo effects occur.
