Waxing your Lexus
Polishing and waxing is recommended to maintain the
original beauty of your Lexus’ finish.
Apply wax once a month or if the vehicle surface does not repel
water well.
1. Always wash and dry the vehicle before you begin waxing,
even if you are using a combined cleaner and wax.
2. Use a good quality polish and wax. If the finish has become
extremely weathered, use a car −cleaning polish, followed by
a separate wax. Carefully follow the manufacturer’s
instructions and precautions. Be sure to polish and wax the
chrome trim as well as the paint.
3. Wax the vehicle again when water does not bead but
remains on the surface in large patches. Windshield washer nozzles:
Make sure that the nozzles do
not become blocked when waxing. If a nozzle becomes
blocked, contact your Lexus dealer to have the vehicle
serviced.
NOTICE
If a nozzle becomes blocked, do not try to clear it with
a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged.
Exterior lights: Do not apply wax on the surfaces of the lights.
Wax may cause damage to the lenses. If you accidentally put
wax on the light surfaces, wipe or wash it off.
