Chevrolet 2015 Corvette Owner's Manual page 290

Solvents, alcohols, fuels,
or other harsh cleaners.
Ice scrapers or other hard items.
Aftermarket appearance caps or
covers while the lamps are
illuminated, due to excessive
heat generated.
Caution
Failure to clean lamps properly
can cause damage to the lamp
cover that would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty.
Caution
Using wax on low gloss black
finish stripes can increase the
gloss level and create a
non-uniform finish. Clean low
gloss stripes with soap and
water only.
Air Intakes
Clear debris from the air intakes,
between the bonnet and
windscreen, when washing the
vehicle.
Windscreen and Wiper Blades
Clean the outside of the windscreen
with glass cleaner.
Clean rubber blades using lint-free
cloth or paper towel soaked with
windscreen washer fluid or a mild
detergent. Wash the windscreen
thoroughly when cleaning the
blades. Insects, road grime, sap,
and a build-up of vehicle wash/wax
treatments may cause wiper
streaking.
Replace the wiper blades if they are
worn or damaged. Damage can be
caused by extreme dusty
conditions, sand, salt, heat, sun,
snow, and ice.
Vehicle Care
Weatherstrips
Apply Dielectric silicone grease on
weatherstrips to make them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or
squeak. Lubricate weatherstrips at
least once a year. Hot, dry climates
require more frequent application.
Black marks from rubber material on
painted surfaces can be removed by
rubbing with a clean cloth. See
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 11-4.
Tyres
Use a stiff brush with tyre cleaner to
clean the tyres.
Caution
Using petroleum-based tyre
dressing products on the vehicle
may damage the paint finish and/
or tyres. When applying a tyre
dressing, always wipe off any
overspray from all painted
surfaces on the vehicle.
