A MOTOR WASH DOWN

These are days when it's good planning to develop details of Service performance to cement your relations with the Service Customer - the fellow who pays the fare year after year and always your best new motor prospect.

There are many ways to do this of course, but it's hard to beat returning a washed down motor to its owner after a good job of repair and/or tune up. He can't help but feel that a bit of extra interest and effort have gone into it and, up goes your stock with him.

Dick Clements of Dick Clements' Outdoorsman, Beach Haven, New Jersey performs this extra service for his customers which pays off and as such enhances his prestige with the area outboarders.

Further, a clean unit is easier to work with and handle -cuts shop time...profitably. The gun shown here is a Binks No. 140B (engine cleaner). The cleaning solution used is Gunk SC-5 mixed one (1) part Gunk to five (5) parts kerosene and sprayed off with water after use. Says Dick, "It does an excellent job for us as the motors invariably come out of the tank dirty and with greasy finger marks on them. Two or three minutes in the wash rack with Gunk and water and they look like new".

The gun or similar and Gunk or like substances for the purpose are ordinarily available thru Chemical Cleaning Supply houses or many of the area Automotive Supply Houses.

Worth looking into.
