Vehicle Washing
Frequent washing helps preserve your car’s
appearance.

direct sunlight. If your vehicle is exposed to the sun
for a long time, wait until the exterior cools down
before washing.

using an automatic vehicle washer.

withstand the flushing from the automatic vehicle
washer, pay attention to its impact on the paint.

of fresh water, and type of wax solvent which do
not meet the specified requirements are likely to
damage the paint.
