order to soften up dirt and grime. Apply from bottom
to top. In cases of particularly dirty vehicles, pre-spray
with a product such as Allosil in order to remove traces
of insects etc, then rinse at low pressure and apply
normal car cleaning detergent. Let detergents settle
for 5 minutes before cleaning off. Metallic surfaces can
be cleaned using RimTop.

Clean again from bottom to top. Use accessories to
clean in diffi cult to reach places. Use brushes in order
to add a mechanical cleaning effect. Short lances can
help for cleaning of motors and wheel arches. Curved
lances or undercarriage washers can be valuable for
the cleaning of car underchassis and wheel arches.
3. Clean fragile areas such as motors, rubber at lower
pressure levels to avoid damage.
