SECTION 13-EXTERIOR JAYCO TOWABLE
Damaged paint
To prevent corrosion, touch up small cracks and scratches in the paint coat as soon as
possible with touch-up film or paint. Carefully check the body areas facing the road and
the tires for damage to the paint coat caused by flying stones, etc. To purchase touch-up
paint, use the closest automotive paint (available locally) match possible.
Cleaning plastic parts
Use a sponge or chamois to clean plastic parts. Use warm water and a soft cloth or
chamois to remove any white residue from dark colored plastic surfaces. Do not use a
scrubbing brush, other hard tools, or wax containing abrasives as they may damage the
plastic surface.
Chrome parts
To prevent chrome parts from spotting or corroding, wash with water, dry thoroughly, and
apply a non-abrasive automotive wax. If the chrome is severely damaged or pitted, use a
commercially available chrome polish product.
