Mazda 3 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.

depending on the type of high pressure
car washer device. If the car washer

damage the paint.

paint damage.

air tool to apply wax. Otherwise, the
frictional heat generated could result
in deformation of plastic parts or paint
damage.

aluminum wheels. Special care is needed
