materials are not removed, accelerat-
ed rusting can occur on underbody
parts such as the fuel lines, frame,
floor pan and exhaust system, even
though they have been provided with
rust protection.
Thoroughly flush the vehicle under-
body and wheel openings with luke-
warm or cold water once a month,
after off-road driving (for four-wheel
drive vehicles) and at the end of each
winter. It will do more harm than good
to wet down the road grime without
removing it. The lower edges of
doors, rocker panels, and frame
members have drain holes that
should not be allowed to clog with
dirt; trapped water in these areas can
cause rusting.

To protect the surfaces of bright-
metal parts from corrosion, apply a
coating of wax or chrome preserva-
tive and polish to a high luster.
During winter weather or in coastal
areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or
preservative. If necessary, coat the
parts with non-corrosive petroleum
jelly or other protective compound.
✽ NOTICE
If your vehicle is damaged and
any metal repair or
replacement, be sure the body shop
applies anti-corrosion materials to
the parts repaired or replaced.
