Washing Tips
-
Avoid the use of harsh cleaners, which can damage the finish.
-
Do not use medium to heavy duty compounds on the finish.
-
Always use clean cloths and pads for cleaning and polishing. Old or reused cloths and pads may contain dirt particles that will scratch the finish.
-
Do not use high-speed polishers/buffers on body panels, as damage or color fading may occur.
If a high pressure water system is used for cleaning, exercise extreme caution. The maximum pressure should not exceed 3000 PSI, 2.5 GPM with a 40° pressure washer nozzle. Make sure to keep the pressure washer nozzle 2 ft from the vehicle. The water may damage components and could remove paint and labels. Avoid directing the water stream at the following items:
-
Wheel bearings
-
Radiator
-
Transmission seals
-
Brakes
-
Cab and body panels
-
Labels and decals
-
Electrical components and wiring
-
Air intake components
-
Throttle and shift cables and controls
-
Seat Belts
-

Grease all zerk fittings immediately after washing. Allow the engine to run for a while to evaporate any water that may have entered the engine or exhaust system.
