CAR CLEANING TIPS

Trade Secrets and Tips

Washing Vehicles

•    Apply TFR to heavily soiled or fly covered areas using pump spray or mini jet.
•    Soak wheels in TFR or wheel cleaning allowing 3 minutes penetration for best results.
•    Do not allow detergents dry on vehicles.


Hand/Machine Polishing

•    Do not polish vehicle exteriors in direct sunshine or when panels are hot.
•    Do not mix cutting compounds on application pads.
•    Spray your sponge polishing head with a light dusting of water before compound application.
•    Apply polish to dark coloured bodywork in straight lines, rather than circular motion.
•    Use Farecla G3 for scratch removal.
•    Use Farecal Total for lacquer flatting and shine.
•    Use micro fibre cloths to remove any remaining polish dust.


Interior

•    Spray interior staining with appropriate chemical and leave for three minutes to allow penetration. Agitate with a brush if required.
•    When dressing interior plastics always wipe over with micro fibre cloth to remove excess residue and dust.

Chewing Gum Removal

•    To remove chewing gum without solvent based chemicals, fill a plastic bag with ice and place on the affected area. When the gum is sufficiently cold simply remove with a vacuum cleaner or by hand.
