martinr Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Hello, I just bought a new D90. It came from the factory with the whole bottom covered with something like the Waxoyl Hardwax. However, it is not Waxoyl Hardwax. It is not brownish, but just dark grey (black). Certified service people say it will disappear till the end of the winter. I would like to have the bottom covered with Waxoyl Hardwax, but do not know if I can leave the factory treatment in place and go with the Waxoyl over it (this is what I would prefer), or if I have to wash it down first (which I would like to avoid). Certified service people are giving a pythic answer to my question and say that I can either leave it, or wash it down using high pressure steam/water. But I have some objections against going with a hight pressure steam/water over bottom of the new car. Will anybody know what the factory uses for the bottom treatment, and if it is possible to leave it in place and just apply Waxoyl Hardwax over it? If not, what is the best way do wash down the factory treatment? Thank you very much Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR90 Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 New D90, nice While Nige does have some waxoil experiences you might do well to send Dougal a pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 IMHO You should clean it off. If you are "Anti" steam cleaning, then with a squirty bottle spray "GUNK" all over the areas and let soak in, then just use a normal pressure washer, and it will be clean and let it dry... Then <ahem> the 'fun' can start Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
