Mazda 6 Owners Manual: Plastic Part Maintenance
- When cleaning the plastic lenses of the lights, do not use gasoline, kerosene,
rectified spirit, paint, thinner, highly acidic detergents, or strongly alkaline
detergents. Otherwise, these chemical agents can discolor or damage the surfaces
resulting in a significant loss in functionality. If plastic parts become inadvertently
exposed to any of these chemical agents, flush with water immediately.
- If plastic parts such as the bumpers become inadvertently exposed to chemical
agents or fluids such as gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or battery fluid, it
could cause discoloration, staining, or paint peeling. Wipe off any such chemical
agents or fluids using a soft cloth immediately.
- High water temperature and high water pressure car washers are available
depending on the type of high pressure car washer device. If the car washer

period of time, it could deform plastic parts or damage the paint.

in paint damage.

paint damage.
