|
|
|
1.
|
Mix Tempro 75 Remover with hot water to a concentration of 2-4%. If water having a lower temperature is used to rinse off Tempro 75 Remover and the paintwork protector (see point 5), the concentration should be higher (but not more than 15%).
|
|
2.
|
Flush loose dirt off the car with a high-pressure power washer.
|
|
3.
|
Wet all parts of the bodywork covered by paint protector with Tempro 75 Remover, using a spray gun or the high-pressure power washer. The car should be at room temperature to ensure that the paint protector will be dissolved.
|
Important
|
|
On convertible cars, leave the transport protection in place over the soft top when washing off the paint protector with Tempro 75 Remover.
|
|
|
|
|
4.
|
Allow Tempro 75 Remover to act for about three minutes. Note that it must not be allowed to dry. If it does, apply additional Tempro 75 Remover.

Illustration: Vehicle card
Removing
Removal of the RAPGARD paint protector must be carried out within the temperature range 0 to +35°C, +20°C being the most suitable temperature. If the body and the ambient temperature is above +35°C, park the car in the shade or cool it down with water until the body has reached a suitable temperature.
|
Important
|
|
Adhesive residue may fasten to the paintwork at high temperatures.
|
|
|
The RAPGARD paint protector must be removed at least 48 hours before the car is shown to a customer so that any swelling has time to go down.
|
1.
|
Loosen the corners of the plastic film. Use hands only,
no tools
|
|
2.
|
Grip the plastic film as close as possible to the bodywork.
|
|
3.
|
Pull off parallel to the body surface at an even rate,
do not pull suddenly
.
|
|
4.
|
Wash the car with water and dry it
|
|
5.
|
Make sure there is no adhesive residue remaining. If there is, remove it with petroleum spirit (low-aromatic petroleum hydrocarbon) or Iso propanol (Iso propyl alcohol). Use these sparingly and for short periods only.
|
When the plastic film and any adhesive residue has been removed the paintwork may have swelled. This is normally temporary and will disappear within 48 hours.
|
2.
|
Use concentrated washer fluid to clean all the windows and remove all residual grease from the windscreen and wiper blades.
|
|
3.
|
Remove the transit and storage protection from doors, floor and seats. Remove also the rubber grommets securing the floor protection to the extra mat guide pins. Check for/remove any spots in the interior.
|
Warning
|
|
The protective plastic must be removed before the car is handed over to the customer as protective plastic in the car does not meet the requirement of inflammability (legal requirement).
