How Do I Maintain My Textile Seats and Carpets?
|
|
All textile seats and carpets require weekly dusting to prevent microscopic particles of dust from becoming attached to the fibres. Failure to dust textiles on a regular basis leads to accelerated wear. To dust textiles, use a vacuum cleaner. In all cases, dusting alone is never able to eliminate dirt but must be backed up by cleaning. Use a textile cleaner that is water-based and has a neutral pH. Using a textile cleaner, clean the textile with a sponge glove and rinse with the same glove damped in warm water. Dry the textile with a towel to remove residual dirt and dampness. Vacuum clean the dry textile and treat it with a textile protector. The textile protector keeps textile new looking and significantly improves the working life of both woven and non-woven textiles.

How Do I Take Care of My Leather Seats?
|
|
While leather initially repels most spills, they will be absorbed if not treated properly. Blot any liquids immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or sponge, then let air dry. Take extra precautions to keep leather away from direct sunlight as they are sensitive to fading. Every week, clean the leather with a leather cleaner using a damp soft cloth to remove dirt and body oils. After cleaning, apply leather protection cream onto the leather to prevent cracking and to resist staining and soiling. Never use a hair dryer to speed drying but allow the leather to air dry after cleaning.

Is Auto Glass Cleaner Effective?
|
|
Auto glass cleaner is specially formulated to remove tough road grime, bug residue, tree sap on the outside and oily, hazy, foggy film on the inside, giving the windows a streak-free shine for maximum visibility. This formula is ammonia-free, unlike many household cleaners. Always use a dry paper towel or 100% cotton cloth for a streak-free, clean shine look.

What is a Bug and Tar Remover?
|
|
A bug and tar remover rapidly and safely removes residual contaminants (tar, adhesives, grease, wax, oil and silicones) from a vehicle paintwork and trim to leave a clean surface. This remover is used before routine washing and rinse clean during the shampoo process. It eliminates the need to scrub or rub, leaving behind no smudges or smears.

What is a Protectant?
|
|
An auto protectant is used to protect rubber, vinyl, plastic and leather surfaces against harmful ultraviolet rays and premature drying and cracking, thus providing superior long lasting shine. The auto protectant contains urethane-enriched formula which deeply penetrates these surfaces to bring out the original colour as it conditions and protects surfaces from fading, drying and cracking.

What is a Putty?
|
|
Basically, a putty is to fill and repair dents, hollows, scratches or holes on various parts of the car. It is then sanded to a desirable shape. There are different types of putties for specific parts of the car: Body Putty (car body), Muffler Putty (car muffler, exhaust pipe), Bumper Putty (bumper and other plastic parts), Glass Fiber Putty (car aero parts), Lens Putty (headlights) and Aluminum Putty (aluminum wheels, stainless, copper, tin material).

What is Rain Repellent?
|
|
Rain repellant causes water to bead into droplets. The micro-sized droplets are quickly removed from glass surfaces by wind and gravity. This will improve visibility on side and rear windows at all speeds. Due to the forces of gravity and wind on the windshield working against each other, we can expect increased performance at higher rates of speed but at lower speeds, the intermittent use of wipers is expected.
