Maintenance
Keep your car clean
•  When cleaning lower  door panels,     Keep  paint and trim  in good  con-
rocker panels and frame members,
be  sure that  drain  holes are  kept
open so that  moisture can escape
and not be trapped inside to accel-
erate corrosion.
dition
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.
Scratches   or   chips   in  the   finish
should  be  covered  with  "touch-up"
paint as  soon as possible  to reduce
the  possibility  of  corrosion.  If  bare
metal is  showing through, the atten-
tion  of  a  qualified  body  and   paint
shop is recommended.

rosion unless  it is  well ventilated  so
moisture is dispersed.
Don't neglect the interior
When cleaning underneath the car,
give   particular   attention   to   the
components under the fenders and
other  areas  that are  hidden  from
view. Do a thorough job; just damp-
ening the accumulated  mud rather
than washing  it away  will acceler-
ate corrosion rather than prevent it.
Water  under   high  pressure   and
steam  are particularly  effective  in
removing  accumulated   mud  and
corrosive materials.
Moisture can  collect under  the floor
mats and  carpeting  to cause  corro-
sion. Check under  the mats  periodi-
cally to be  sure the carpeting  is dry.
Use particular care if you carry  fertil-
izers,  cleaning  materials  or  chemi-
cals in the car.
These   should  be   carried   only  in
proper  containers and  any  spills or
leaks should be  cleaned up, flushed
with   clean   water  and   thoroughly
dried.
