TO  HELP  PREVENT   COR-
ROSION

o  When   cleaning   lower  door   panels,
rocker panels and frame members, be
sure that drain holes are kept  open so
that moisture  can escape  and not  be
trapped  inside   to  ac-celerate  corro-
sion.

KeepPaintandTriminGoodCondi-
You  can   help  prevent   corrosion  from
getting  started  by observing  the  follow-
ing:
tion
Scratches or chips in the finish should be
covered with "touch-up" paint as  soon as
possible to  reduce the  possibility of  cor-
rosion. If  bare metal is showing  through,
the attention of a qualified body and paint
shop  is recommended.
E020B01A-AAT
Keep Your Car Clean
The best  way  to prevent  corrosion is  to
keep your car clean and free of corrosive
materials.  Attention  to the  underside  of
the car  is particularly  important.
E020C01A-AAT
Keep Your Garage Dry
Bird droppings : Bird droppings are highly
corrosive and  may damage  painted sur-
faces in just  a few hours. Always remove
bird droppings  as  soon as  possible.
Don't  park  your  car  in  a  damp,  poorly
ventilated  garage. This  creates  a favor-
able  environment  for  corrosion.  This  is
particularly  true if  you wash  your  car in
the  garage  or  drive  it  into  the   garage
when it is  still wet or covered  with snow,
ice  or mud.  Even  a heated  garage  can
contribute  to  corrosion unless  it  is  well
ventilated so  moisture  is dispersed.
o  If  you live  in a high-corrosion  area —
where  road salts  are  used,  near the
ocean, areas  with  industrial pollution,
acid rain, etc.— you  should take extra
care  to  prevent  corrosion.  In  winter,
hose off  the underside  of your  car at
least  once  a  month  and  be  sure  to
clean the  underside  thoroughly when
winter is  over.
o  When   cleaning  underneath  the   car,
give particular attention to  the compo-
nents  under   the  fenders  and   other
areas   that   are  hidden   from   view.
Do a thorough job; just dampening the
accumulated mud rather than washing
it away will accelerate corrosion rather
than prevent it. Water under high pres-
sure and  steam are particularly  effec-
tive in removing accumulated mud and
corrosive  materials.
E020E01A-AAT
Don'tNeglecttheInterior
Moisture can collect under the  floor mats
and carpeting to  cause corrosion. Check
under the mats periodically to be sure the
carpeting is dry. Use particular care if you
carry  fertilizers,   cleaning   materials   or
chemicals in  the car.
These  should be  carried  only in  proper
containers and any spills  or leaks should
be cleaned  up,  flushed with  clear water
and  thoroughly dried.
