Maintenance and Adjustment
Washing
Prepare a mixture of cold water and mild
automotive cleaner. Do not use a highly
alkaline soap as commonly found at
commercial car washes because it leaves a
residue.
Wash the exhaust system with a soft cloth. Do
not use an abrasive scouring pad or steel
wool. They will damage the finish.
Rinse the exhaust system thoroughly.
Ensure no soap or water enters the exhausts.
Drying
Dry the exhaust system as far as possible with
a soft cloth. Do not run the engine to dry the
system or spotting will occur.
Protecting
When the exhaust system is dry, rub
'Motorex 645 Clean and Protect' into the
surface.
It is recommended that regular protection be
applied to the system as this will both protect
and enhance the system's appearance.
Caution
The use of products containing silicone will
cause discolouration of the chrome and
must not be used. Similarly, the use of
abrasive cleaners and polishes will damage
the system and must not be used.
