tion
Scratches or chips in the finish
should be covered with "touch-up"
paint as soon as possible to reduce
the possibility of corrosion. If bare

shop is recommended.
Bird droppings : Bird droppings are
highly corrosive and may damage
painted surfaces in just a few hours.
Always remove bird droppings as
soon as possible. Don't neglect the interior
Moisture can collect under the floor
mats and carpeting and cause corro-

cals in the vehicle.
These should be carried only in
proper containers and any spills or
