The best
way to preserve your vehicle's finish is to keep
it
clean by washing
it
often with lukewarm or cold
water.
Don't wash your vehicle
in
the direct rays of
the
sun.
Don't use strong soaps
or
chemical detergents. Use
liq~~id
hand, dish or
car washing (mild
detergent)
soaps.

or
a
100%
cotton towel to avoid
surface scratches and water spotting.
