CARE & MAINTENANCE TIPS

For Paint, Fabric, Leather and Vinyl

A well-maintained vehicle will give you years of enjoyment and help preserve a high resale value.  The best way to keep your vehicle and its finish looking its best is to wash and clean it regularly.  We recommend the use of PermaPlate Maintenance and Renewer products.  However, it is perfectly safe to use other retail automotive detailing products and waxes on your vehicle as they will not negatively affect the PermaPlate product applications or your PermaPlate product warranty*.
