oured. Substances of this nature
include spilt fuel, oil, grease,
brake fluid and bird droppings.
We recommend BMW vehicle
polish or BMW paint cleaner for
this purpose.
Marks on the paintwork are par-
ticularly easy to see after the
vehicle has been washed. Re-
move stains of this kind imme-
diately, using cleaning-grade
benzene or petroleum spirit on a
clean cloth or ball of cotton wool.
BMW Motorrad recommends us-
ing BMW tar remover for remov-
ing specks of tar. Remember to
wax the parts treated in this way.

Preserving paintwork
BMW Motorrad recommends
