Aston Martin One-77 2010 Owner's Manual page 165

The following list is not exhaustive but does show the
most common contaminants which may adversely
affect your paint work:
Other groups of contaminants may be added to
this list as experience of water based paints and finishes
increases.
• Bird Droppings
• Antifreeze
• Tree Sap
• Oils and Greases
• Insect Remains
Wash such substances from the vehicle using clean
warm water with vehicle shampoo, at the earliest
opportunity, especially in sunny weather which can
accelerate contamination.
Washing
Warning: Washing and polishing agents
containing silicone should not be applied to glass.
This will reduce the efficiency of the windscreen
wipers, causing smears which will reduce visibility,
particularly during darkness and in the rain.
Commercially operated automatic vehicle
washes, jet washes and power operated mops are
not recommended. The detergents used can
contain certain chemicals which may, over time, be
detrimental to some exterior parts of the vehicle.
Prolonged usage of automatic vehicle washes and
power operated mops will also cause fine scratches
in the paint surface.
Aston Martin recommends the use of AUTOGLYM
vehicle care products or preparations of similar
reputable manufacture for adding to the washing
water. Make sure that the manufacture's instructions
are followed.
