Waxing
Wax the vehicle when water will no
longer bead on the paint.
Always wash and dry the vehicle
before waxing. Use a good quality liq-
uid or paste wax, and follow the man-
ufacturer’s instructions. Wax all metal
trim to protect it and to maintain its
luster.
Removing oil, tar, and similar materi-
als with a spot remover will usually
strip the wax from the finish. Be sure to
re-wax these areas even if the rest of
the vehicle does not yet need waxing.Finish damage repair
Deep scratches or stone chips in the
painted surface must be repaired
promptly. Exposed metal will quickly
rust and may develop into a major
repair expense.

NOTICE
If your vehicle is damaged and
requires any metal repair or
replacement, be sure the body shop
applies anti-corrosion materials to
the parts repaired or replaced.
CAUTION
Wiping dust or dirt off the
body with a dry cloth will
scratch the finish.
Do not use steel wool, abra-
sive cleaners, or strong deter-
gents containing highly alka-
line or caustic agents on
chrome-plated or anodized
aluminum parts. This may
result in damage to the protec-
tive coating and cause discol-
oration or paint deterioration.
CAUTION
Water washing in the engine
compartment including high
pressure water washing may
cause the failure of electrical
circuits or engine and related
components located in the
engine compartment.
Never allow water or other liq-
uids to come in contact with
electrical/electronic compo-
nents and air duct inside the
vehicle as this may damage
them.
