Polishing and waxing

• Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, waxing may be beneficial.
• Before applying polish or wax the vehicle must be washed and dried. Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover.

Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing compound.
• After polishing use liquid or paste wax.
• Several commercially available products contain both polish and wax.
• Waxing alone does not substitute for polishing a dull surface.
• A wide range of polymer-based car waxes can be purchased today. These waxes are easy to use and produce a long-lasting, high-gloss finish that protects the bodywork against oxidation, road dirt and fading.
• Do not polish or wax your vehicle in direct sunlight (the surface of the vehicle should not be warmer than 113° F (45° C).
