Cleaning Plastic Parts - Ford Ranger Owner's Manual

Introductory Information

Cleaning Plastic Parts

Some of your vehicle's exterior trim parts are plastic. Clean with
a tar and road oil remover if necessary. Use a vinyl cleaner for
routine cleaning.
Do not clean plastic parts with thinners, solvents or
petroleum-based cleaners.
If you have your vehicle rustproofed, remove oversprayed
rustproofing with a tar and road oil remover. If rustproofing is
not removed from plastic and rubber parts, it can cause
deterioration.
Because your vehicle's side mouldings are painted in lacquer, do
not use thinners or solvents to clean them.
