Show THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, SUND AY MORNING, FEBRUARY 20, U 1921. "T HUD Manufacturers Are Devoting Muck Time to Perfection of Detail in Finishing - y 'A new significance comes with the 'Automobile Shows this year. to in American body building. The mechanism of the modern motor ear has reached aa approximate degree of perfection, leaving the manufacturers free to devote more time to increasing the attractive neae of the vehicle. The present-da- y American car. aa It leaves the factory, te really a .thing of beauty, with its highly polished surface and shining metal. Naturally, this has induced thrhwnef to take more prle in keeping up the appearance of his gasoline steed. The result Is that cleaning methods and equipment have greatly advanced over those of a few years back. The preeent-da- y owner, using modem methods, may keep his car looking new all the time, nor will he have to spend more than a few minuter a day to accomplish this end. For Instance, there are now on the market a number of liquid and wax polishes which "will gtve admirable results If they are used aa Ilmrarks the Tetunrof selective buying. It closes, at least for a time,' the period when motorists figuratively stood in line for "any car that could, be delivered. 1 -- , v'N t directed. -- Once' more the demand for automo- biles falls within the producing capacity of those companies whose constraints of tradition .and reputation could not permit speeding up to sacrifice quality, in the production race, now fortunately ended. , Cleanliness Essential In the use of wax polishes the first step Is thoroughly to clean the body of the car. The polish Is applied to the surface with a piece of cheesecloth and. then another clean cloth Is used to distribute the wax evenly all over the surface. Car. owners commonly make the mistake of thinking that the more wax applied the better. As a matter of fact, a rery thin film Is eU that la needed. The polish will last for from four days to a week, and after it has been applied at the beginning of the week a little will bring rubbing with a dean cloth wax out the lustre again. The polish may be used for body, fenders, hood end also will and other lustrous it - be-- found 4t-- givensurface, a good coating less mud will bs deposited, and what there Is may be easily removed. The most recent tvpe of body polish Is that which It sprayed on the surface with a large sprayer. In using this 'polish the body must first be thoroughly cleaned with water. If the body surfaces are merely dusty the polish may bs sprayed on and then be wiped off with a clean doth. After spraying the polish over the surface A piece of cheesecloth is used to wipe off the excess. There Is no necessity for vigorous rubbing The present day owner must not ae- - sums that these new and really useful aids to beautifying the motor car have superseded plain water. The contrary la true. The ear must be washed Just as formerly, after which the new polishes do bring the lustre of the original . And that, too, is the buyers gain. - But is it" not even a greater benefit to the automobile industry! Frankly, .we think it is. .... j Why We Acclaim the New Competition .
