if it contacts the finish on your truck,
will be harmful unless it is washed off as soon as possible.
If the paint surface is not kept clean, the action of the elements
and accumulation of dirt, road scum, corrosive salts, etc., will even-
tually cause ddmage to the finish and also present a very unattrac-
tive appearance. The more frequent washings will eliminate the
necessity of using polish. If, after extended neglect, strong sunlight
and the elements have caused the finish to dull, MOPAR Liquid
Automobile Polish can be used to restore the luster of the finish.
Paste wax and abrasive cleaners are not recommended.
CLEANING GLASS
In cleaning windows, windshield and other glass equipment, use
MOPAR Glass Cleaner or wash with water and wipe dry with a
linen cloth or chamois. A cloth slightly dampened with house-
hold ammonia will remove the thin scum difficult to remove with
water alone.
CLEANING THE RUNNING GEAR
Cleaning the under side of the truck and the inside of the wheels
can best be done with a small, powerful stream of water from a
hose. This stream dislodges mud and dirt that may have accumu-
lated. Occasionally, the use of a stiff brush may be necessary.
REMOVING TAR OR ROAD OIL
Tar or road oil can be removed from the cab and body without
injury to the finish by using one of the standard brands of tar
remover. If the tar has hardened into lumps, soften it first by using
lard, butter or kerosene, after which treat the finish with MOPAR
Liquid Automobile Polish.
CLEANING CHROME TRIMMING
Clean the grille and other chromium-plated parts with MOPAR Chro-
mium Polish. It removes rust where the plating has been scratched
or rubbed off and covers the spot to prevent more rust forming.
