Chevrolet 1960 Corvair Owner's Manual page 18

It is recommended that all bright metal parts of your
Corvair, after being thoroughly cleaned, be given a
coating of wax and rubbed to a high polish. This will
serve to keep corrosive agents away from these surfaces,
and should be repeated as often as required.
CLEANING WHITE SIDEWALL TIRES
Use soap, warm water or a tire cleaner such as
G.
M. Whitewall Tire Cleaner and a stiff brush to remove
road grime and dirt from white sidewall tires. A fine
grade of steel wool will remove severe curb scrapes.
Do not use gasoline, kerosene or any oil product which
would discolor or deteriorate the rubber.
CAUTION: Some
white sidewall cleaners will cause
serious damage to aluminum trim . Use caution
when cleaning tires with this type
of
cleaner.
G. M. Whitewall Tire Cleaner is safe
to
use
around aluminum trim.

INTERIOR APPEARANCE
DUST AND DIRT
Clean the interior of your car frequently, using a
broom or vacuum cleaner . A damp cloth will wipe dust
from hard surfaces. G. M. leather Cleaner is available
from your Authorized Chevrolet Dealer to clean any
imitation leather, vinyl or coated trim fabric on seats
or door panels.
SPOTS AND STAINS
Remove upholstery stains as soon as possible or
they may become "set" and difficult or impossible to
remove . First determine the type and age of the stain
and the kind of upholstery material. Kar Kleen Uphol-
stery Cleaner or Kar Kleen Upholstery Spot Cleaner,
available from your Authorized Chevrolet Dealer, will
remove most stains. For oil, grease and road grime stains
not removed by these cleaners the use of a volatile type
cleaner such as G. M.Upholstery Spot Remover is recom-
mended. Do not use alkaline cleaners · f or they may
damage the color or finish of the materials. Other solu-
tions such as hot or cold water, ammonia water, soap ,
ink eradicator, etc., will probably discolor and disturb
the material.
