Polishing your recreation vehicle
If painted surfaces have been severely damaged and have lost their original luster and
color tone, polish the surface lightly with a fine polishing compound. Avoid limiting your
polishing to the damaged surface only; polish a somewhat wider area, moving the polishing
cloth in one direction. After polishing, flush the compound from the surface and apply a coat
of wax to regain a beautiful luster.
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. Use the closest automotive
paint (available locally) match possible when touch-up paint is needed.
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.
Do not allow plastic to come into contact with brake fluid, engine oil, grease,
paint thinner, or battery acid. These will damage plastic. Use a soft cloth and
a mild detergent solution to wipe away any such contact.
Frame
Sand, pebbles, objects on the highway, climate (salt air exposure) or ice inhibiting chemicals
used during the winter months will damage the paint, inviting rust and other deterioration.
Periodically inspect the exterior exposed areas, clean and repaint the frame members
occasionally and whenever you notice rust or paint chipped away, to insure protection.
E-Z Lube or Super-Lube Axle (if so equipped)
The E-Z lube or Super-lube feature on your axles provides the ability for the bearings to be
periodically lubricated without removing the hubs from the axle. This feature consists of
axle spindles that have been specially drilled and fitted with grease zerks in their ends. When
grease is pumped into the zerk, it is channeled to the inner bearing and then flows back to the
outer bearing and eventually back out the grease cap hole. If you have further questions,
consult with your dealer.
NOTE:
The convenient lubrication provisions of the E-Z lube or
Super-lube feature must not replace periodic inspection and mainte-
nance of the bearings. Use a hand-operated grease gun; improper
use of a commercial grease gun may damage the seals.
