PREWAX TREATMENT
2-1
2. GENERAL
Introduction
PREWAX is a transparent, odourless, non-toxic
mixture of various types of wax and
corrosion-inhibiting chemicals which is
vapour-sprayed into all corrosion-sensitive
areas.
It penetrates all seams and adheres to all
surfaces where it combines electrochemically
with the metal. PREWAX does not drip, so there
is no fouling of the cab and floor. It can be
sprayed into all cavities using the DAF PREWAX
kit (special tool, DAF no. 0689779) without
difficulty. The equipment does not need to be
cleaned.
2.1 NOTES ON RE-TREATMENT
- Thoroughly stir the PREWAX before use.
- For optimal treatment, the temperature of
both the cab and the PREWAX must be
20
_
C.
- All holes required for re-treatment are
already present in the cab.
- Treat cavities with a minimum pressure of
6 bar.
- After treatment of seams and hinges,
reduce the air pressure to 3 bar (ideal
pressure).
- Make sure to re-install the ML plugs after
treatment.
- Store the flexible spray pipe by hanging it
vertically.
- Ensure that the area is properly ventilated
during treatment.
- Use the ultraviolet light to check that the
PREWAX has been applied correctly.
