Cleaning your customized car
with our Covering
You've just customized your vehicle with our Covering service. This technical solution adapts to the shape of your vehicle and covers your original paintwork without altering it.
However, this process requires you to follow the same car-wash precautions as for your original paintwork. Make sure you use the right products to clean and protect the surfaces covered, to guarantee the film's long-term durability.
Basic precautions
1°/ DO NOT WASH YOUR VEHICLE FOR 48 HOURS AFTER APPLYING THE FILM.
2°/ Never wipe off dirt directly with a microfiber or other cloth without a suitable product/shampoo. Frequent use of aggressive washing methods can dull the finish.
3°/ When you wash your car, never let the water dry on your bodywork, especially in hot weather. You risk letting lime marks form.
4°/ Although your film prevents contact between droppings, insect traces or resin and your bodywork, never delay in removing them.
5°/ Never wash or use products in direct sunlight. The temperature of your bodywork will make them evaporate too quickly: they will lose their effectiveness and some will even leave traces.
Water cleaning
For particularly dirty vehicles.
ProTech® Monte-Carlo Covering Films are easy to maintain using the classic shampoo method.
For a thorough wash, you can use PROTECH® CARROSSING SHAMPOO and a wash mitt or sponge.
1°/ Wet the whole vehicle with a water hose/high pressure jet, our SHAMPOO is also foamlance compatible for a foam pre-wash.
2°/ Prepare a bucket of clean water and a bucket of shampoo, respecting the dosage recommendations.
3°/ Clean the whole vehicle with the glove or sponge soaked in shampoo. Clean the least dirty areas (high areas) first, finish with the most dirty areas (low areas) last. Rinse your sponge regularly in the bucket of clean water.
4 °/ Rinse the entire car with the garden hose or high pressure jet.
5°/ Use the Maximum Wipe microfiber (yellow) to remove as much water as possible from the surface. You can use the 1K Finish microfibre (red) again for a streak-free result.
Waterless cleaning
The most practical for routine cleaning
ProTech® Monte-Carlo Covering Films can be cleaned without water using our dedicated products and microfibres.
Without a drop of water, you can wash and polish any surface covered with a film covering. These products have been formulated to encapsulate the dirt, enabling the surface to be cleaned without risk.
Your film is matt: use the Mat&Clean ProTech® MC 500 mL.
Your film is glossy or textured: use the Waterless Cleaning ProTech® MC 500 mL.
1 °/ Be sure to use clean microfibers. They must be cleaned in the washing machine after each use.
2°/ Spray the product directly on the part of the bodywork to be cleaned.
Ideally work in areas of 50cm * 50cm.
3°/ Wipe the product with the blue microfibre, taking the dirt with you.
4 °/ Use the Red Microfiber for a shining and without trace result.
Maintaining your film over time
Car Wrap Care ProTech® MC is a product from our laboratory, incorporating the latest technology. It is used after cleaning to revive and protect your color film.
Effects last up to two months.
Using Car Wrap Care
In addition to washing, the appearance of your film can also be prolonged with CAR WRAP CARE.
1 °/ Be sure to use clean microfibers. They must be cleaned in the washing machine after each use.
2°/ The area to be renovated must be clean, dry and cool.
3°/ Spray the product directly onto the part of the film to be treated.
Ideally work in areas of 50cm * 50cm.
4°/ Spread the product with the blue microfiber.
5°/ Wipe the surface with the red microfiber to remove any traces and finalize the application.
What to avoid!
You can clean your vehicle at any high-pressure car wash, but you must take certain precautions.
1°/ Do not clean the vehicle for 48 hours after installation.
2°/ Use high-pressure cleaners at least 50cm from the surface.
3°/ Solvents and corrosive detergents should be avoided.
4°/ Roller washing: the additives and the state of the rotating brushes can affect the appearance of the films. It is known that 10 roller washes streak automotive paints. In the same way, these mechanical effects can degrade the appearance of the film over time.
