PLASTIC MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
MAINTENANCE
Clean the vehicle thoroughly, removing all dirt and
grease accumulation.
To clean use a soft clean cloth and either soapy
water or isopropyl alcohol.
To remove grease, oil or glue use isopropyl alco-
hol.
CAUTION : Do not apply isopropyl alco-
hol or acetone directly on decals.
CAUTION : The following products must
not be used to clean or wax any of the
plastic components used on the vehicles :
– gasoline
– brake fluid
– kerosene
– diesel fuel
– lighter fluid
– varsol
– naphtha
– acetone
– strong detergents
– abrasive cleaners
– waxes containing an abrasive or a cleaning
agent in their formula
CAUTION : Clean R.I.M. Metton ® with iso-
propyl alcohol only . Never use cleaners
or products containing chlorine .
Apply wax on glossy finish only. Protect the vehi-
cle with a cover to prevent dust accumulation dur-
ing storage.

mobile has to be stored outside it is pref-
erable to cover it with an opaque tarpaulin.
This will prevent the sun rays from affecting
the plastic components and the vehicle finish.

als is to find out exactly which type of material is
