Chevrolet Camaro 2016 Operating Manual page 320

Occasional hand waxing or mild
polishing should be done to remove
residue from the paint finish. See
your dealer for approved cleaning
products.
Do not apply waxes or polishes to
uncoated plastic, vinyl, rubber,
decals, simulated wood, or flat paint
as damage can occur.
Caution
Machine compounding or
aggressive polishing on a
basecoat/clearcoat paint finish
may damage it. Use only
non-abrasive waxes and polishes
that are made for a basecoat/
clearcoat paint finish on the
vehicle.
To keep the paint finish looking new,
keep the vehicle garaged or
covered whenever possible.
Protecting Exterior Bright Metal
Moldings
Caution
Failure to clean and protect the
bright metal moldings can result
in a hazy white finish or pitting.
This damage would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
The bright metal moldings on the
vehicle are aluminum, chrome or
stainless steel. To prevent damage
always follow these cleaning
instructions:
Be sure the molding is cool to
the touch before applying any
cleaning solution.
Use only approved cleaning
solutions for aluminum, chrome
or stainless steel. Some
cleaners are highly acidic or
contain alkaline substances and
can damage the moldings.
Always dilute a concentrated
cleaner according to the
manufacturer s instructions.
Vehicle Care
Do not use cleaners that are not
intended for automotive use.
Use a nonabrasive wax on the
vehicle after washing to protect
and extend the molding finish.
Hood Air Extractor
SS
It is not recommended that the air
extractor on the SS Performance
Package be waxed, as it will change
the gloss level of the surface. In
addition, care must be used when
waxing around the air extractor. If a
small amount of wax is applied to
the extractor it can create an
irregular appearance in the surface
