FRONT RUNNER RACKS AND ACCESSORIES ARE HAPPIEST COVERED IN MUD
But in order to maintain full functionality of the rack slots and any moving parts, you may want to give
your gear a bath now and again.
It's easy! Take care of your Front Runner gear the same way you do the exterior of your vehicle:
WHETHER YOU LIKE TO ROLL DIRTY OR CLEAN, YOUR FRONT RUNNER GEAR WILL GIVE YOU MANY YEARS OF SERVICE!
Rinse with clean water and wipe down with a soft dry cloth. For stubborn spots, use a soft brush and mild soap.
In salty coastal climates, or snowy regions where salt is used to clear roadways, applying a silicone based oil
or spray to nuts and bolts will help prevent corrosion.
If you really want to baby your gear, feel free to lightly wax the surfaces or use a protective spray with UV
inhibitors. Just be sure not to use compound waxes that contain abrasives.
