The care of your new paint finish in the first 60 days is crucial to its long term appearance and durability. The following tips should help.
- Avoid commercial car washes for 30 days.
- Wash your car in the shade, not in the sun.
- Thoroughly pre-soak the car with water first.
- Use a high quality automotive wash mitt instead of a sponge.
- Do not use household detergents. Use an automotive car wash solution.
- Rinse the car afterwards with cold water.
- Dry it with a chamois or soft towel. Never dry wipe it with a dry cloth.
- Do not wax or polish it for 60 days.
- Avoid extreme heat or cold temperatures. In hot weather, keep your car in the shade whenever possible.
- Immediately rinse off tree sap, bird droppings, oil or gasoline with water.
- Avoid driving on roads with loose stones or gravel. If you must drive on these roads, maintain a larger than normal space between the other cars.
- Avoid parking near sources of salt spray, heavy smoke or other industrial fallout.
- Lightly brush ice and snow from painted surfaces. Do not scrape.
Follow these tips and your new finish will look good for years to come!
