Care of vinyl trim panels (Audi A3 8L)

Do not use washing powders, caustic soda or gasoline-based cleaners to clean vinyl panels. Regular soap and warm water are perfect for this purpose. Stubborn dirt can be easily removed with a soft brush (with water and soap). Cleaning of vinyl panels is carried out with the same frequency as washing other surfaces of the car body.

After cleaning, coating the panels with high-quality protective compounds for rubber and plastics helps well against oxidation and cracking. The same compounds can be used to treat the sealing strips of the body openings, vacuum lines and rubber hoses, which are often destroyed by the chemical influence of the environment. The solutions are also suitable for treating tires.
