Caring for Aluminum Wheels
NOTE:
• Do not use an acidic or alkaline deter-
gent to wash aluminum wheels. These
types of detergent will cause permanent
spots, discoloration and cracks on fin-
ished surfaces.
• Do not use a bristle brush and soap con-
taining an abrasive material. These will
damage finished surfaces.
• Use the same wax you use for the body
surfaces also for waxing aluminum
wheels to protect their clear finish.
CAUTION
It is important that your vehicle be
kept clean and free from dirt. Failure
to keep your vehicle clean may result
in fading of the paint or corrosion to
various parts of the vehicle body.
