Your SnugTop brand product has been finished with premium-grade automotive paint.
Proper maintenance of this new finish will be rewarded with a long-lasting beautiful
appearance. The following guidelines are provided for you:
• Avoid wiping or waxing your cap for 90 days and avoid commercial or high-pressure car
washes for 90 days. This gives the fresh paint finish the maximum time to cure completely.
• Do not wipe your cap with a dry cloth.
• Do not spill chemicals such as anti-freeze or coolant on the finish.
• Do not scrape ice or snow from the finish.
• Do not use polishes not formulated for clear-coat finishes.
• Do not add exterior wraps* or stickers until the cap has been installed for 48 hours.
• After 90 days, wash and wax your cap regularly with a product designed to preserve and protect
painted finish. Ask your Ford Dealer for product recommendations. Make sure to wash your cap
in a shaded area using cool water and a mild detergent.
• Do not subject the windows of your cap to the direct force of high-pressure commercial car
washes or pressure washers. Windows are not warranted against leaks under the pressure of
such equipment.
*Exterior wraps and stickers applied incorrectly may void paint warranty.
MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
Regular maintenance will keep your truck cap working well. Your Ford Dealer would be happy
to help you for a nominal fee
1. Keep window tracks free of debris. Lubricate the sliding portions of your windows monthly with
an oil-based lubricant. Lubricate door locks with oil based lubricant like WD40. Do not use
silicone or petroleum distillate (WD40, etc.) spray lubricant on gas props.
Caution: Do not get oil based lubricant near any of the cap seals.
2. Check J-Bolt clamp for tightness monthly. Torque clamps to 150 +/- 10 inch-lbs.,
(12.5 +/- 0.8 foot-lbs.).
J-Bolt clamps are suitable for securing caps when properly installed.
Ask your Ford Dealer if you have any questions about the attachment process.
IMPORTANT SAFETY TIPS
• Never drive your vehicle with the cap door open.
• Do not use the product for passenger occupancy while the vehicle is in motion or while the
engine is running.
• Contact your auto insurance company to make them aware you have added a truck cap to
your vehicle.
