WARNING
To  remove  road  tar  and  insects,     Corrosive materials  used for ice and
use a tar remover, not a scraper or     snow  removal and  dust control  may
other sharp object.
After  washing the  vehicle,  test
the brakes  while driving  slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water. If braking performance
is  impaired, dry  the  brakes  by
applying    them   lightly    while
maintaining    a   slow    forward
speed.
collect  on  the   underbody.  If  these
materials are  not removed,  acceler-
ated rusting can occur on the  under-
body  parts  such  as  the  fuel  lines,
frame, floor pan and exhaust system,
even though they  have been treated
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 and at  the end
of each  winter. Pay special attention
to these  areas because  it is difficult
to see all  the mud and dirt.  It will do
more  harm than  good  to wet  down
the  road grime  without  removing it.
The lower edges of the doors, rocker
panels,  and  frame   members  have
drain holes that  should not 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  preser-
vative and rub 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   gasoli-
neeum   jelly  or   other   protective
compound.
