3M™ Automotive Reconditioning Guide INSPECT AND PRE-CLEAN
INSPECT & PRE-CLEAN

1. Inspect the vehicle. Note any adhesive residue, tree sap, or bug spatters that will need to be specially treated. Use
an air blower to remove leaves from trunk jambs and engine cowlings. Check for loose or missing caps on power
steering, power brakes, oil filler, etc.; tighten or replace if necessary. Remove all trash from interior including trunk,
ashtray, and seat folds. Inspect the interior carpet and fabric upholstery for any stains or heavily soiled areas that will
require pre-spotting.

2. Pre-spot any stained or heavily soiled interior carpet or fabric upholstery surfaces using 3M™ All Purpose Cleaner
and Degreaser, diluted at 1:15 (1 part concentrate plus 15 parts water) and brush lightly. Pre-spotting and brushing
greatly enhances the effectiveness of the cleaner and reduces the time needed to remove the stains later in the process.

INSPECT AND PRE-CLEAN 3M™ Automotive Reconditioning Guide

3. Apply 3M™ Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner to the wheels. Use the following steps to achieve maximum performance:
Step 1: Determine which concentration to use based on experience.
- Use a 1:2 dilution for lightly soiled wheels (1 part concentrate plus 2 parts water)
- Use 100% concentrate for heavily soiled wheels (undiluted).
Step 2: Spray 3M™ Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner onto a DRY wheel. Pre-rinsing the wheel dilutes the product,
reducing its effectiveness.

DO NOT use 3M™ Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner on glass, engines, anodized wheels and/or wheels with no
coating or with coating cracked or in poor condition. Glass that is stained by the 3M™ Heavy Duty Wheel
Cleaner can not be repaired and will need to be replaced.
Note: 3M™ Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner does not contain hydrofluoric or other strong acids.

4. Apply 3M™ All Purpose Cleaner and Degreaser, diluted at 1:15 (1 part concentrate plus 15 parts water), to the

engine and engine compartment (lightly), tires, wheels, wheel wells, rocker panels, door and trunk jams, etc. Let
stand for 1 to 2 minutes. Rinse or wipe down engine and engine compartment surfaces with towel.
Note: 3M™ Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner works best on brake dust, while 3M™ All Purpose Cleaner and Degreaser
works best on other soils. For best results, use both products on wheels.

HEAVY CLEANING

3M™ Automotive Reconditioning Guide
HEAVY CLEANING

1. Scrub tires, wheels, and other heavily soiled areas as necessary. A medium stiffness bristled brush works best on
tires and most wheels, however, for chrome wheels, a wash mitt or terry cloth towel often produces better results.

2. Thoroughly rinse all of the exterior areas where 3M™ Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner and/or 3M™ All Purpose Cleaner
and Degreaser have been applied. Rinse or wipe down engine and engine compartment last.

Do not spray or rinse water on sensitive electrical engine components.
Note: It is recommended that you start the engine when rinsing or spraying
the engine compartment with water.

EXTERIOR CLEANING

1. Apply 3M™ All Purpose Cleaner and Degreaser, diluted at 1:15 (1 part concentrate plus 15 parts water) onto
any bug spatters.

2. Wash the vehicle using 3M™ Car Wash Soap diluted at 1:100 (1 part concentrate plus 100 parts water) and a clean,
soft, sponge, towel, wash mitt or 3M™ Detail Cloth. Start at the top and work downward, scrubbing the areas with
bug spatters last.
Note: 3M™ Car Wash Soap cleans effectively at a 1 to 100 dilution ratio. Increasing the concentration will increase
the suds but will also be more difficult to rinse off.

diluted 3M™ Car Wash Soap as a lubricant. This step may also be done after the vehicle is dry using 3M™
Perfect-It™ Gloss Enhancer as a lubricant.

4. Rinse the entire vehicle thoroughly and dry using a chamois or a clean, soft, cotton terry cloth towel.

5. Optional step if needed or necessary: Remove any tree sap deposits on glass surfaces using 3M™ Glass Cleaner
undiluted and a terry cloth towel. Inspect vehicle after wash to identify any tree sap or similar deposits that were
not removed by washing.

DILUTION RATIOS

Product Dilution Ratios Explained

Mix water-based chemicals with water to make ready-to-use products.
Why
- Safer for workers
- Save money buying concentrates
- Ratios pre-set to match the job
- Better for the environment
Dilution examples
- 1:3 or one-to-three = 1 part concentrate + 3 parts water = 4 gallons of useable product
- 1:15 or one-to-fifteen = 1 part concentrate + 15 parts water = 16 gallons of useable product
Cost per gallon example
- 1:4 = 1 part concentrate ($5.00) + 4 parts water ($0.00) = $5.00 for 5 gallons or $1.00 per useable gallon

INSTALLATION & USE INSTRUCTIONS

(CONTINUED)

Installing the Diluter
1. Open the carton and check contents.

- The carton contains the diluter control console with attached concentrate supply tubes and dispenser tubes.
- Also, there is a small bag that contains one spare bottle cap, mounting screws, and wall anchors.
2. Remove the front cover from the control console.
- Press in on the tabs on both sides of the control console and simultaneously lift the front panel off.
3. Mark the location of 3 mounting screws on the wall.
- Position the back plate of the control console against the wall at the desired location. (You may use a level to make sure

the control console is straight, but this is not critical to operation.)
- Mark the location of the mounting screws with a pen or pencil. There are two keyholes at the top of the plate and a slot

hole near the bottom, left side.

CAUTION

Eye hazard.
Flying particles and dust.
Wear safety glasses with side shields when drilling or hammering.

4. Drill holes for screws.
- Use a 5/16” drill bit to make holes for the 3 wall anchors. You may need to use a masonry drill bit for some types of wall.

5. Insert wall anchors.
- Hammer the anchors flush to the wall.

6. Insert top two screws
- Screw in the top two screws, but leave the heads out about 1/4” from the wall.
- Do not install the third screw yet.

7. Secure the backplate to the wall
- Do not over tighten the screws.
- Place the console backplate on the wall. The keyholes at the top should fit over the two screw heads in the wall and slip
down into the keyhole notches.
- Install the bottom screw and then tighten all three screws.

8. Attach the water supply.
- Thread the end of a standard garden hose to the connector on the right side of the control console (as you face the unit).
- Note: The cap on the connector on the left side (as you face the unit) should normally remain in place.

IMPORTANT

Inspect to be sure the tubes are attached securely. The tube for
supplying glass cleaner concentrate to the diluter is a special tube and
must be used for the glass cleaner concentrate. Do not switch tubes.

9. Snap the front cover into place.
- Press in on the two side tabs while pushing the cover on until it snaps into place.

10. Arrange concentrate containers below diluter so hoses are neatly arranged.
- Each supply tube has a label on it to identify the concentrate product it supplies.
- Insert each concentrate supply tube into its correct concentrate container and fasten the lid.

23

IMPORTANT DILUTER USAGE

Make sure the supply tubes are inserted into their correct
concentrate product containers.

Using the Diluter
Dispense Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner:
- Place a correctly labeled detailing spray bottle onto the corresponding product tube coming out the bottom of the
diluter console.
- Press and hold correct button until bottle is filled.
Dispense Glass Cleaner or All Purpose Cleaner & Degreaser:
- Place a correctly labeled detailing spray bottle onto the corresponding product tube coming out the bottom of the
diluter console.
- Press and hold correct button until bottle is filled.
Dispense Car Wash Soap:
- The long tube on the right bottom of the console is for dispensing soap into a bucket on the floor.
Place the end of the tube in a bucket.
- Press and hold the right button, labeled Car Wash Soap, until you’ve dispensed the amount you want.

The chart above shows the dilution ratios of water to various 3M detailing products. The eductor, labeled at the top,
can be brown, grey, or yellow. The eductor is the part in the assembly that the hoses attach to. Find your educ-
tor color and look below it to find the product you are using. In the column below your product, you will
see various dilution ratios. Find your ratio and follow it left to determine which dilution tip color you
will use. Example: Brown eductor with a black dilution tip has a dilution ratio of 1:2 of 3M™
Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner to water.

Depending on your hose fitting size you may have a snap tip or a threaded tip. If you
are using a threaded dilution tip, it is important that you screw hand tight plus a
1/4 turn. If you are using a snap dilution tip, fully insert it into the barbed
fitting (be sure not to squeeze the tip).

filling, bottle is more than 1/2 full of foam) Cleaner suction hose meets the diluter

3M™ Car Wash Soap not sudsy enough Replace yellow orifice tip with brown, orange or green
orifice tip
No siphon on select product(s)
Ensure all fittings are very tight and secure. Replace foot valve
Water leaks where garden hose attaches to diluter on the end of the hose. Ensure adequate water pressure
Water leaks where gray water hose fitting meets white
valve housing Ensure rubber washer is inside fitting. Tighten the fitting

After use, suction hose drains down or loses prime Unscrew gray fitting, reapply thread sealer/tape, screw
fitting back in

Replace foot valve on the end of the hose. Note: Use gray
foot valve for 3M™ Glass Cleaner and a blue foot valve for
all other products.

While in use, water “spits out” from gray or yellow eductor Mineral deposits inside eductor misdirecting water flow;
remove eductor and soak/clean with lime-away type
product and reinstall.**

After usage, solid crystals develop in 3M™ Glass Cleaner Remove supply hose, clean out crystals, and reinstall or
supply hose replace selector switch or install separate 3M™ Single
