Car Care
WAXING :
Waxing and polishing is recommended to maintain the gloss
and wet-look appearance of your paint finish.
1. Use a good quality polish and wax for your car.
2. Re-wax your car when the water does not slip off the surface
and collects over the surface in patches.
Further tips for the care of your new CAR finish :
We recommend that you do not use an automatic car wash as
the stiff brushes or sponges could mar the finish and damage
the surface of your Indica. Wash the vehicle by hand with cool
and clean water using a soft cloth or sponge. Please do not
use soap but a car shampoo recommended by your dealer.
Please take the following precautions :
1. Always wash your car in shade, avoiding direct exposure to
sunlight during washing.
2. Dry wiping your car may lead to the formation of scratches
and hence always use a soft cloth and clean water while
wiping your car.
3. Always keep your car parked in a well ventilated shade.
Exposure to heat with entrapped moisture promotes
corrosion.
4. Avoid driving on gravel roads, as the possibility of paint chip
off due to the impact of stones is high. If you are driving on
freshly tarred road, check immediately afterwards for any
stains & clean them.
5. External contamination in the form of sap or industrial fallout
may mar or develop spots on a new finish. Hence avoid
parking your Indica near trees, which are known to drop
sap, or near factories, which give out heavy smoke.
6. The acid content in bird droppings may damage the newly
painted finish and hence any bird dropping must be
immediately washed off.
7. The paint finish is susceptible to damage in case petrol,
brake fluid, liquid from car battery, oil, antifreeze,
transmission fluid or windshield solvent spills onto the
painted surface. In case of such a spillage immediately rinse
the affected area with water. Avoid wiping the area far as
possible, however if wiping is required, ensure that you wipe
the area gently with soft cotton cloth.
8. Avoid using sharp objects to scrap off tar or mud from a
painted surface as it may develop scratches or may peel
off the paint.
