Striping & Decals
The striping and decals on your vehicle require little maintenance. Treat these as you would any painted surface
on your vehicle. Wash them with mild soap and warm water, or any retail car soap. Never wash the vehicle in
direct sunlight, while the vehicle is hot or with hot water. Rinse thoroughly to prevent soap residue accumulation.
Use caution with high pressure wash nozzles. Keep them at least 18 inches from the edge of the decals. High
pressure water may cause the decals to loosen and peel. Test small sections of decals when using any type of
cleaning solution.
IMPORTANT
Do not use solvents such as acetone, MEK, toluene, etc. on the decals. Any solvent including alcohol may soften or
smear colors. Do not use lacquer thinner or paint on decals. Do not overcoat the decals with clear paint. Do not allow
gasoline or other fuels to drip or stay on the decals for any length of time. If this occurs, immediately flush the area with
water.
Simulator Care
The care and maintenance of your stainless steel wheel product is simple and requires no special material or
products. All products are constructed of highly polished 304L stainless steel. Timely care and cleaning will keep
them looking great for many years. We suggest the following care:
1.
Clean your wheel cover/liner on a regular basis to keep road dirt from building up.
A.
Rinse with clean water to remove loose dust and dirt.
B.
Clean with a mild soap and water solution. (Any non-abrasive household detergent works fine.) Apply
with cloth, sponge, or soft bristled brush. Use solution liberally to avoid surface scratching due to
trapped dirt on the applicator.
IMPORTANT
Do not use harsh detergents, acids, or abrasives which may scratch or dull the surface. The applicator cloth, sponge,
or soft bristled brush should be non-metallic and non-abrasive
C.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove excess soap and dirt.
D.
Repeat above steps as required.
