Cleaning - Exterior
It is recommended that the paintwork should not be treated with a heavy wax
for a period of three months after the car has been painted. This will allow
the paintwork to ‘breathe’ and cure correctly. During this time the car should
be cleaned regularly and may be treated with a light polish. The bright work
should be cleaned and waxed every time the car is cleaned.
After this initial period, the surface of the paintwork should be thoroughly
cleaned. Any imperfections, such as light scratches, should be removed using a
ne rubbing compound applied with a soft cloth.
NOTICE Polishing compounds must be used carefully as they actually
remove the paint surface. A ne cutting polish can be used to polish road
lm o the paint surface.
Do not use cutting polishes that contain ammonia as this may bleach some
pigments. After you are happy that the paint is completely clean, a good
quality wax polish should be used to nish o. You should avoid silicone-based
products and polymer sealers, as these can prevent the paint from ‘breathing’.
Use a traditional wax polish which may require a little more eort, but the
result is worth it. After the initial polishing of the car, it is most important to
keep the paintwork and chrome work clean and well waxed.
NOTICE Be sure not to get polish or oil on the brakes when cleaning.
Your nearest Morgan dealer will be happy to provide advice about the best
materials to use when cleaning your car.
