In The First 90 Days:
• Do not wax or polish the vehicle—this will allow the finish to dry and harden completely. (Do not use silicone-containing waxes or polishes.) In The First 30 Days:
• Do not use a commercial car wash. Stiff brushes or sponges could mar the finish and damage the surface. Wash the vehicle by hand with cool water and a very mild car wash solution. Be sure to use a soft cloth or sponge.
• Wash the vehicle in the shade—never in the sun. • Do no "dry wipe" the vehicle—always use clean water. Dry wiping could scratch the finish.
• Extreme heat and cold are to be avoided. Keep the vehicle parked in the shade whenever possible. • Do not drive on gravel roads. Chipping the finish is easily done in the first 30 days.
• Do not park under trees which drop sap or near factories with heavy smoke fallout. Sap & industrial fallout will damage a freshly painted surface.
• Trees are also likely to attract birds. Bird droppings have a high acid content and will damage a freshly painted surface. They should be washed off as soon as possible.
• Do not spill gasoline, oil, antifreeze, transmission fluid or windshield solvent on the new finish. If you do…IMMEDIATELY rinse off with watery. DO NOT WIPE.
• Do not scrape ice or snow from the surface. Your snow scraper can act like a paint scraper if the finish is new. Brush off the loose material with a soft snow brush. Call 503-728-9116 For Additional Information.
