Inspection Mirror Maintenance and Care
Inspection Mirror Maintenance and Care |
||||
 |
Inspection mirrors are made from stainless steel or aluminium which means they are corrosion-resistant, making them suitable for long term outdoor use. | |||
 |
If your mirror becomes damaged, replacement mirror heads are available for all inspection mirrors, apart for the unextendable inspection mirror and the under-vehicle inspection mirror. These heads are simply screwed in and out by the ball joint. | |||
 |
To keep the mirror clean, wipe with a microfibre cloth to ensure you have a clear view. | |||
 |
Over time, the ball joint may become weak, meaning it won’t keep its shape or hold the mirror position as well as when it was new. If this happens, you may need to replace your inspection mirror. | |||
How to spot a top quality inspection mirror: |
