Cleaning the exterior
The vehicle should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. This makes the vehicle easier
to clean because dirt does not attach as
strongly. It also reduces the risk of scratches
and keeps the vehicle looking new. Wash the
vehicle in a car wash or garage with an oil
separator and use car washing detergent.

Polishing and waxing
Polish and wax the vehicle when the paint is
matte or to provide extra protection. The
vehicle does not need to be polished until it is
at least a year old. However, it can be waxed
during the first year. Do not polish or wax the
vehicle in direct sunlight. The surface of the
vehicle should not be warmer than 45 °C
(113 °F).
•
Wash and dry the vehicle very carefully
before polishing or waxing. Remove
asphalt and tar stains with asphalt
remover or paint thinner. More stubborn
stains can be removed with a grinding
paste designed for vehicle paint.
•
Use polish first and then liquid or paste
wax. Follow the instructions on the pack-
age carefully. Many products contain both
polish and wax.
•
A wide range of polymer-based waxes can
be purchased today. These waxes are easy
to use and produce a long-lasting, high-
gloss finish that protects the bodywork
against oxidation, road dirt and fading.
