To Clean the Vinyl Upholstery
You should polish and wax the car
again when water no longer beads on
a clean surface but spreads out over a
larger area.

moved, repeat this procedure until the
upholstery is clean. Do not use gaso-
line, solvent, paint thinner or other
strong cleaners.

Spot Cleaning
Don't use gasoline, strong solvents or
corrosive cleaning agents. These can
damage the finish of the car. To re-
move road tar, use turpentine on a
clean, soft cloth or commercially avail-
able bug and tar remover. Be gentle.
To remove dead insects or tree sap,
use warm water and mild soap or car-
washing solution. Soak the spot and
rub gently. If the paint has lost its
luster, use a commercial car-cleaning
polish.

aged if mistreated. Do not use abra-
sive cleaners. Use warm water and
mild soap or car-washing solution.

have your car repainted, do not
leave the bumpers on the car if the
car is going to be placed in a high-
temperature paint booth.

Polishing and Waxing
Always wash and dry the car before
polishing or waxing or using a combi-
nation cleaner and wax. Use a good
quality commercial product and follow
the manufacturer's directions on the
container. Polish and wax the bright
trim pieces as well as the paint.
