Cleaning Matte Clear Coat Finishes Matte finish products are prone to trapping dirt, oils and other contaminants. Always clean this type of finish with warm water and a mild dish-washing detergent. Use a soft sponge to gently rub the surface, then rinse with clean warm water. For stubborn stains such as grease or oil, use a citrus-based cleaner. Spray the cleaner onto the area and rub gently with a soft sponge. Allow the cleaner to sit for a couple of minutes, then rinse well with clean warm water. Repeat as needed. NOTICE: Never use a polishing/buffing wax or any sponge that has an abrasive surface when cleaning a matte finish. These products will buff the matte surface of the finish and result in a glossy finish. Never clean matte finishes with a pressure washer, as this will further imbed contaminants into the clear coat and may damage labels and decals.

Suede paint cannot be buffed out if it becomes scratched or scuffed. If polished, the finish will become less flat or matte. This finish cannot be repaired if it receives heavy damage such as a scratch or chip. Suede Finish Cleaning Suede paint should be cleaned and cared for in the following manner: 1. Spray Pure Victory Polish Suede Finish Cleaner (#90949) directly on all the suede bodywork. 2. Using a Pure Victory Polish 100% Microfiber Polishing Towel (#90962), wipe the cleaner into the surface, then wipe the finish dry using a clean, dry surface of the towel. 3. After you have cleaned and dried your suede bodywork, apply Pure Victory Polish Suede Finish Protectant (#90950) to maintain and protect the beauty of your VICTORY motorcycle.
