Below are some tips on taking care of refinish work using PPG Envirobase Paint

In the first 90 days:

  • Do not wax or polish the vehicle – this will allow the finish to dry and harden completely. (Do not use silicone-containing waxes or polishes.)

In the first 30 days:

  • Do not use a commercial car wash. Stiff brushes or sponges could mar the finish and damage the surface. Wash the vehicle by hand with cool water and a very mild car wash solution. Be sure to use a soft cloth or sponge.
  • Wash the vehicle in the shade – never in the sun.
  • Do not “dry wipe” the vehicle – always use clean water. Dry wiping could scratch the finish.
  • Extreme heat and cold are to be avoided. Keep the vehicle parked in the garage or shade when possible.
  • Do not drive on gravel roads. Chipping the finish is easily done in the first 30 days
  • Do not park under trees which drop sap or near factories with heavy smoke fallout. Sap and industrial emissions mar or spot a freshly painted surface
  • Do not spill gasoline, oil, antifreeze, transmission fluid or windshield washer solvent on the new finish. IMMMEDIATELY rinse off the water. DO NOT WIPE.
  • Do not scrape ice or snow from the surface. Brush off the loose material with a soft snow brush.

We use PPG Envirobase HP Paint so your vehicle receives not only one of the most durable paints in the industry, but is an environmentally friendly waterborne paint. When you pick up your vehicle, you’ll drive away with a limited lifetime warranty that will last as long as you own your car or truck.
