THE CORRECT WAY TO WASHING
The following
practices will help maintain the life and quality of the vinyl film:
Wash applied vinyl graphics with a blend of clean water and a
mild care wash or detergent (i.e. Dawn®, Joy® or Ivory®).
Test any cleaning solution on a small section of the vinyl
graphic before using.
Always read the warning labels on car care products for proper
safety instructions.
Once you’ve washed the vehicle with a soapy water blend, rinse
with clean water.
Either let the vehicle air dry or dry off with a microfiber
cloth.
THE WRONG WAY
Indications of vinyl
failure can include loss of gloss level, fading, cracking, chipping or peeling
around graphic edges. The following practices will result in deterioration of
the vinyl film:
Do not allow fuels to stay in contact with the vinyl for
extended periods of time. Clean all spills as soon as possible
Do not use automated car washes, truck washes using caustic
cleaners or pressure washers to clean your vehicle
Do not apply carnauba-based wax over vinyl graphic
Do not apply any type of wax or polish to matte or carbon
fiber-finished vinyl
Do not use mechanical brush washing
USE OF AN AUTOMATED CAR WASH or pressure washing WILL VOID THE WARRANTY
PROPER CARE OF PERFORATED WINDOW GRAPHICS (VEHICLE)
It is relatively
inexpensive to replace window graphics. Never compromise safety. Always ensure
maximum visibility.
Avoid using the rear windshield wiper and only use when
absolutely necessary, as it will scratch the laminate over time and reduce
visibility. It is best to clean any grime and sediment from your rear window
with a wet squeegee to avoid scratching
Avoid using your rear defroster, use only when absolutely
necessary as it can potentially reduce the lifespan of the see through
perforated window film
Avoid frequent rolling of windows with graphics in order to
avoid scratching
Do not use an ice scraper on any window that is covered with
vinyl specially perforated window film as it could scratch and damage the graphics
Keep in mind that
these are simple guidelines for extending the life of your window graphics. In
matters of safety, common sense should always prevail to ensure maximum
visibility at all times
CONCERNS ABOUT PRESSURE WASHING VINYL VEHICLE GRAPHICS

HOW TO REMOVE DIFFICULT POLLUTANTS OR DEBRIS FROM VEHICLE GRAPHICS
Spot clean the area with Isopropyl Alcohol and a microfiber rag.
