- 1. Treat the outer and inner surfaces of the weld with the recommended protective coating.
Application equipment.
- 2. Repair damaged underbody seal
Corrosion protection.
- 3. Use a two-component touch-up system.
- 4. Treat all unpainted cavities with protective wax.
Restoration of the paintwork
Thoroughly clean the surface with a high-pressure water jet or steam before refinishing.
Rinse the repair area with an aqueous solution of detergent and wipe immediately before applying paint with a cloth soaked in solvent.
Sand the damaged paint surface to a metallic sheen, capturing the unbroken area around the damaged area. Etch the cleaned surface with a phosphate solution to remove all traces of rust and create the first coat for painting. Re-surface the defective surface by etching separately with an acid-based compound and then with a two-component primer, or immediately apply a combination of etch and preparation compound (primer/filler), then apply a two-component top coat. Treat not yet painted areas with a protective wax composition, and then tint.
- a - Two-component paint coating
- b - Two-component preparation and primer
- c - Etching with phosphate solution
When drying by heating, the drying temperature should not exceed 65°C. Exceeding this temperature will cause headlight and taillight reflectors to deform and may cause damage to other components.
