SYMPTOM: The exterior paint surface does not feel smooth after the vehicle is washed.

PROBABLE CAUSE: Environmental fallout (airborne metallic particles, tree sap, paint overspray, road tar, insect residue, etc.) has adhered to the exterior paint surface.

CORRECTIVE ACTION: Select a product line from one of the manufacturers listed in REQUIRED MATERIALS to clean the paint surface and to wax it after cleaning. Make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions for each of the products you use.

The required materials is basically a list of clay, cleaner, and wax products offered by various manufacturers.

This bulletin exists only for customer/dealer convenience. Environmental fallout is not a warranty issue.
