Appearance Care Remember, cleaning products can be hazardous. Some are toxic. Others can burst into flameif you strike a match or get them on a hot part of the vehicle. Some are dangerous if you breathe their fumes in a closed space. When you use anything from a container to clean your Buick, be sure to follow the manufacturer's warnings and instructions.
