Avoiding dama getothe decorative foil
R For cleaning, use plenty of water and a mild cleaning agent without
additives or abrasive substances, e.g. a car sha mpoo appr ovedfor
Mercedes-Benz.
R Remo vedirt immediately, where possible, whilst avoiding rubbing
to o hard. There is otherwise a risk of damaging the decorative foil
ir re parably.
R Ifth ere is dirt on thefinish or if the decorative foil is dull: use the

absorbent clo thafte reve rycar wash. R
The service life and colouring of decorative foils are impaired by:
- sunlight
- temp erature, e.g. hot air blo wer
- weather conditions
- stone chippings and dirt
- chemical cleaning agents
- oily products
R Do not use polish on matt decorative foil. Po lishing will ha vethe ef fect of
shining thefo il-wrapped sur face.
R Do not treat matt or stru ctured deco rative foils with wax.Pe rm anent
