Care of the finishing panels made of vinyl

It is not necessary to use for cleaning of vinyl panels laundry detergents, the caustic soda or cleaners on a petrol basis. Usual soap in combination with warm water perfectly is suitable for this purpose. The eaten dirt well is removed by means of a soft brush (with water and soap). Cleaning of vinyl panels is made with the same frequency, as a sink of other surfaces of a body of the car.

Upon completion of cleaning against oxidation and emergence of cracks the covering of panels high-quality protective structures for rubbers and plastics well helps. The same structures can be applied to processing of sealing strips of apertures a body, vacuum lines and rubber hoses which often collapse under chemical influence of environment. Solutions suit as well for processing of tires.
