Washing your McLaren
ENVIRONMENTAL: Some cleaning
products contain chemicals that are
hazardous to the environment. Always
take precautions to prevent fluids from
spilling and never use excessive
quantities.
Hand washing your McLaren
1. Pre-rinse the body thoroughly with a hose
pipe held at a shallow angle to loosen any
dirt and wet the paintwork ready for
washing, avoiding direct spray on engine
cover vents.
2. Prepare a bucket of warm water and a good
quality car shampoo. Refer to the shampoo
manufacturer’s instructions for dilution
ratios.
3. Working from the top of the vehicle down,
wash the vehicle, ideally using a lambswool
wash mitt rather than a sponge, use
generous quantities of water paying
particular attention to areas where dirt can
accumulate. Use one wash mitt for the top
of the vehicle (roof, luggage compartment
lid and areas above the wheel arch line) and
a separate mitt for areas below the wheel
arch line.
NOTE: Do not clean the wheels with
these wash mitts.
NOTE: Do not allow the shampoo to dry,
it will leave streaks on the paint work.
4. Tar spots and stubborn grease marks can
be removed using white spirit or denatured
alcohol. After cleaning, immediately wash
the area with soapy water to remove all
traces of spirit or alcohol.
5. Once the vehicle is clean, work from the top
of the vehicle down and rinse thoroughly
using a hose pipe held at a shallow angle,
avoiding direct spray on engine cover vents.
6. Dry the vehicle using a chamois leather or
drying towel.
NOTE: In case of signs of water in the
engine bay, it is advised to drive the
vehicle and warm the engine to
operating temperature to dry off any
excessive water from the engine.
Washing the wheels
NOTE: Wash the wheels frequently, do
not allow brake dust to become
ingrained in the wheel rim finish.
Wash the wheels using warm water, a good
quality car shampoo and a wheel brush or wash
mitt that is used only on the wheels. Apply polish
to non-satin finished wheels to assist in keeping
them clean.
NOTE: Never apply polish to satin finish
wheels, this will result in localised
glossy patches on the surface of the
wheel.
NOTE: Do not use acid based wheel
cleaners as these can damage the
wheel rim finish leading to corrosion.
NOTE: Ensure the brakes are fully dried
after the wheels have been cleaned
before the vehicle is stored.
