Protection against corrosion<br />
The following cause corrosion :<br />
Moisture trapped in body cavities.<br />
Dirt and salts collected in hollows on<br />
the underside of the vehicle.<br />
Removal of paint and protective<br />
coatings from the exterior and<br />
underside of the vehicle.<br />
Corrosion preventive measures<br />
have been incorporated in your vehicle.<br />
You can avoid corrosion of your vehicle<br />
by performing some simple periodic<br />
maintenance :<br />
<strong>Care</strong> and cleaning of vehicle<br />
Repair chips and scratches in the<br />
paint as soon as you discover them.<br />
Inspect and clean the drain holes in<br />
the bottom of the doors and body.<br />
Check the floor coverings for<br />
dampness. Carpets and floor mats<br />
remain for a long time, especially<br />
in winter. This can eventually cause<br />
the floor panel to corrode.<br />
Use a high-pressure spray to clean<br />
the underside of your vehicle. This<br />
is especially important in areas near<br />
chemical and other industries.<br />
Have corrosion preventive coatings<br />
done on the underside of your<br />
vehicle. Preventive coatings such<br />
as the Dinitrol-3850 are available in<br />
the market.<br />
