"dressing" is recommended prior to buffing, polishing, and
waxing. Exterior dressing protects the rubber moldings, trim,
plastic door handles, and windshield wiper arms from buffing
residue, making final clean-up easier.
Before you begin dressing the
exterior, it's important to know the difference between two of Auto
Magic's® popular dressing products.
The first product, #33 Magic Dressing™, is a ready to use,
non-dilutable solvent-based silicone dressing. It restores
new luster and adds weather resistant protection to vinyl
upholstery, tires, rubber moldings, and exterior trim. Magic
Dressing™ is not to be used on engines.
#65 Super Dress-It® is a concentrated water-based
silicone dressing for interiors, exteriors and engine compartments.
It restores original beauty to vinyl upholstery and trim,
dashboards, air vents, tires, rubber moldings, vinyl tops, and
hoses. Super Dress-It® may be diluted with water.

DRESS FENDERWELLS & BUMPERS
After the fenderwells have been properly cleaned, spray the fenderwells with
either Magic Dressing™ or Super Dress-It®. This will give the
wells a new look without having to re-paint them. Do not towel the
fenderwells dry. Let the product penetrate. |
|
DRESS TIRES
Dress all tires with either dressing. Avoid spraying directly onto
the tires; rather use an applicator pad. This will help reduce
dressing from "slinging" onto the body panels when
driving. Keep dressing off the wheels and wheel covers. Let the
product penetrate. Wipe the dressing off with a towel, if desired,
for a satin look. Keep it on for a glossy look. |
|
DRESS RUBBER MOLDINGS, TRIM, & DOOR JAMBS
Using an applicator pad, dress the rubber body panel moldings and
trim around the vehicle with #33 Magic Dressing™. This will not
only leave a water proof barrier on these areas, but make wax
residue clean-up easier. Do not dress chrome or painted moldings.
Now open all doors, including the trunk, and dress the rubber jambs. |
|
DRESS WINDSHIELD WIPER ARMS
Finally, dress the windshield wiper arms with an applicator. Keep
either dressing off the glass and chrome. |
