Stripes or Graphics (if
equipped)
Do not use a commercial or
high-pressure wand on the surface or
edge of stripes and graphics. This can
cause damage to the film and cause
the edge of the film to peel away from
the vehicle surface.
Exterior Chrome
Note: Never use abrasive materials
such as steel wool or plastic pads as
they can scratch the chrome surface.
Note: Do not use chrome cleaner,
metal cleaner or polish on wheels and
wheel covers
• Wash your vehicle first, using cool
or lukewarm water and a neutral
pH shampoo, such as Motorcraft
Detail Wash.
• Use Motorcraft Custom Bright
Metal Cleaner. Apply the product
as you would a wax to clean
bumpers and other chrome parts;
allow the cleaner to dry for a few
minutes, then wipe off the haze
with a clean, dry rag.
• Do not apply cleaning product to
hot surfaces and do not leave
cleaning product on chrome
surfaces for a period of time
exceeding that which is
recommended.
• Using other non-recommended
cleaners can result in severe and
permanent cosmetic damage.
Underbody
Flush the complete underside of your
vehicle frequently. Keep body and
door drain holes free from packed dirt.
Cleaning Plastic Exterior Parts
Use only approved products to clean
plastic parts
• For routine cleaning, use
Motorcraft Detail Wash.
• If tar or grease spots are present,
use Motorcraft Bug and Tar
Remover.
REPAIRING MINOR PAINT
DAMAGE
Your authorized dealer has touch-up
paint to match your vehicle’s color.
Take your color code (printed on a
sticker in the driver’s door jamb) to
your authorized dealer to ensure you
get the correct color.
• Remove particles such as bird
droppings, tree sap, insect
deposits, tar spots, road salt and
industrial fallout before repairing
paint chips.
• Always read the instructions
before using the products.
WAXING
Regular waxing is necessary to protect
your car's paint from the elements.
We recommend that you wash and
wax the painted surface once or twice
a year.
