WINDSHIELD AND WINDOWS
The windshield and plastic windows should be kept clean
and waxed at all times. To prevent scratches wash the
windows carefully with plenty of soap and water, using the
palm of the hand to feel and dislodge dirt and mud. A soft
cloth, chamois or sponge may be used, but only to carry
water to the surface. Rinse thoroughly, then dry with a
clean, moist chamois. Rubbing the surface of the plastic
with a dry cloth builds up an electrostatic charge which
attracts dust particles in the air.
Remove· oil and grease with a cloth moistened with iso-
propyl alcohol. Never use gasoline, benzine, alcohol, ace-
tone, carbon tetrachloride, fire extinguisher fluid, anti-ice
fluid, lacquer thinner or glass cleaner. These materials will
soften plastic and may cause it to craze.
After thoroughly cleaning, the surface should be waxed
wth a good grade of commercial wax. The wax will fill in
the minor scratches and help prevent further scratching.
Apply a thin, even coat of wax and bring it to a high polish
by rubbing lightly with a clean, dry, soft flannel cloth. Do
not use a power buffer; the heat generated by the buffing
pad may soften the plastic.
INTERIOR
To remove dust and loose dirt from the upholstery, head-
liner, and carpet, clean the interior regularly with a
vacuum cleaner.
Blot up any spilled liquid promptly wth cleansing tissue or
rags. Do not pat the spot; press the blotting material firmly
and hold it for several seconds. Continue blotting until no
more liquid is taken up. Scrape off sticky materials with a
dull knife; then spot-clean the area.
