Processing of body sealant (paintable) before painting

MODEL

909

When replacing sheet metal components (doors, trunk lid, etc.) as well as welded body parts, carefully seal folds and opening with body sealant.
Otherwise it may cause damage or leakage.

1

Carefully clean affected body parts.

2

Apply sealant uniformly.

The spot weld seams and the rivets must be sealed on both sides.

3

Spread body sealant evenly.

The brushes, wooden spatulas, etc. used to spread the body sealant should generally be cleaned only with pure benzine.
If these objects are cleaned with paint thinner or other alcoholic liquids before applying the body sealant, the sealant does not cure and remains sticky.

4

Maintain drying time for overpainting.
