Keeping Your Bus Looking New
Before cleaning and waxing your bus a few basic rules should be followed:
• Start your project with the bus out of direct sunlight.
• Make sure the paint is not warm to the touch before applying any cleaning
product or wax.
• Spray your bus with ample amounts of water before washing. Use the water
to spray off dirt and other contaminates that will scratch the surface.
• Wash and rinse in sections so the wash soap doesn’t dry before being rinsed
off.
• Drying your bus after washing is necessary to prevent water spots – mineral
deposits that etch the outline of a drop of water into your vehicle’s paint.
• Read the manufacturer’s directions on all products used prior to use.
Wash.
In order to preserve your vehicle’s finish, Blue Bird requires protection of the
finish by washing a minimum once every 3 months.
• Wash the vehicle in lukewarm or cold water.
• Use a lamb’s-wool or paint-safe microfiber washing mitt to prevent scratching
the surface.
• Do not use hot water or wash in the direct rays of the sun.
• Do not use strong soap or chemical detergents.
Only cleaners with an HMIS rating of 1,0,0,0 or less should be used to clean the buses.
This HMIS rating is available on all product MSDS.
To wash units, Blue Bird Corporation recommends Bird Bath™ Bus Wash & Wax
Concentrate, available from authorized Blue Bird Dealers. Bus Wash & Wax is a con-
centrated vehicle wash (rated triple-zero) that is recommended to be mixed at up to
a 20/1 ratio for new and reconditioned buses.
[CAUTION]
Pressure washing may cause damage to finish. Pre-test pressure
washer on a similar surface before applying pressure and chemicals to your
vehicle. Pressure washers that re-circulate should filter the water to remove
abrasive grit.
