several thin paint coats and let dry after each application.
3. If there is a longer scratch, you may want to protect surrounding pai\
nt by masking it off.

pg. 127 Washing the car
Washing the car
l The car should be washed at regular intervals since dirt, dust, insects \
and tar spots adhere to the paint
and may cause damage. It is particularly important to wash the car frequ\
ently in the wintertime to
prevent corrosion, when salt has been used on the roads.
l When washing the car, do not expose it to direct sunlight. Use lukewarm \
water to soften the dirt
before you wash with a sponge and plenty of water, to avoid scratching. \
l Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be\

permanently damaged.
l A detergent can be used to facilitate the softening of dirt and oil.
l A water-soluble grease solvent may be used in cases of sticky dirt. Howe\
ver, use a wash place
equipped with a drainage separator.
l Remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and rocker panels.
l Dry the car with a clean chamois.
l Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has \
been washed.
l A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy water can be used to clean the \
wiper blades. Frequent
cleaning improves visibility considerably.
l Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel housings, fenders, etc.). \
l In areas of high industrial fallout, more frequent washing is recommende\
d.
CAUTION:
During high pressure washing, the spray mouthpiece must never be closer \
to the vehicle than 13" (30
cm). Do not spray into the locks.
Special sun roof cautions:
- Always close the sun roof and sun shade before washing your vehicle. \
- Never use abrasive cleaning agents on the sun roof.
- Never use wax on the rubber seals around the sun roof.
l When washing or steam cleaning the engine, avoid spraying water or steam\
directly on the electrical
components or toward the rear side of the engine.
l After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for \
water and blown dry if
necessary.

reinforced to bear the weight of the car. A garage jack can also be plac\
ed under the front of the engine
support frame. Take care not to damage the splash guard under the engine\
. Ensure that the jack is
positioned so that the car cannot slide off it. Always use axle stands o\
r similar structures.
If a two-post hoist is used to lift the car, the front and rear lift arm\
pads should be centered under the
reinforced lift plates on the inboard edge of the sill rail (see illust\
ration above).
