Water Marks

Occurrence

Rain, fog, dew, and even tap water can

contain harmful minerals such as salt and

lime. If moisture containing these

minerals settles on the vehicle and

evaporates, the minerals will concentrate

and harden to form white rings. The rings

can damage your vehicle’s finish.

Prevention

It is necessary to wash and wax your

vehicle to preserve its finish according to

the instructions in this section. These

steps should be taken immediately after

you find water marks on your vehicle’s

finish.

▼

Paint Chipping

Occurrence

Paint chipping occurs when gravel thrown

in the air by another vehicle’s tires hits

your vehicle.

How to avoid paint chipping

Keeping a safe distance between you and

the vehicle ahead reduces the chances of

having your paint chipped by flying

gravel.

NOTE

•

The paint chipping zone varies with

the speed of the vehicle. For

example, when traveling at 90 km/h

(56 mph), the paint chipping zone is

50 m (164 ft).

•

In low temperatures a vehicle’s

finish hardens. This increases the

chance of paint chipping.

•

Chipped paint can lead to rust

forming on your Mazda. Before this

happens, repair the damage by using

Mazda touch-up paint according to

the instructions in this section.

Failure to repair the affected area

could lead to serious rusting and

expensive repairs.
