| | Cleaning | | | Warning | | Safety information | | Washing - dewaxing The protective film for the paintwork (paint protector) must be removed by dissolving it with a special detergent, Tempro 75 Remover. | Materials | • | Tempro 75 Remover 10 litres - 30 02 482 25 litres - 30 02 490 | • | High-pressure power washer | • | Spray gun Consumption per car wash is about 0.3-0.5 litres of concentrated Tempro 75 Remover, equivalent to about 3-5 litres of diluted detergent. | Instructions for use | Important | Tempro 75 Remover is a high-alkaline product (high pH). It should be used only on bodywork surfaces to which paint protector has been applied. | | 1. | Mix Tempro 75 Remover with hot water to a concentration of 2-4%%. If water having a lower temperature is used to rinse off Tempro 75 Remover and the paintwork protector (see point 5), the concentration should be higher (but not more than 15%%). | 2. | Flush loose dirt off the car with a high-pressure power washer. | 3. | Wet all parts of the bodywork covered by paint protector with Tempro 75 Remover, using a spray gun or the high-pressure power washer. The car should be at room temperature to ensure that the paint protector will be dissolved. | Important | On convertible cars, leave the transport protection in place over the soft top when washing off the paint protector with Tempro 75 Remover. | | 4. | Allow Tempro 75 Remover to act for about three minutes. Note that it must not be allowed to dry. If it does, apply additional Tempro 75 Remover. | 5. | Rinse off the Tempro 75 Remover and the paint protector under high pressure with hot water (but not hotter than +60 °C). | 6. | Remove any remaining paint protector using a sponge and Tempro 75 Remover. | 7. | Wash the car, using a car shampoo. | Final dismantling and finishing measures | 1. | Use concentrated washer fluid to clean all the windows and remove all residual grease from the windscreen and wiper blades. | 2. | Remove transit and storage protection from doors, floor and seats. Inspect the interior of the car for spots and stains and remove any you find. | | | Warning | | The protective plastic must be removed before the car is handed over to the customer as protective plastic in the car does not meet the requirement of inflammability (legal requirement). | Remove any spots and stains on the upper horizontal surface of the dashboard with a lukewarm soap solution. Rinse the surface with clean water before drying it. | Important | Vinyl sprays and the like must never be used as they could be the cause of a film forming on the windscreen and seriously reducing visibility. | | 3. | Clean rubber mouldings, tyre sidewalls and bumpers. | 4. | Inspect the car, remove spots and stains. If necessary, polish the car.
