These sealers are intended to prevent water and dust
from entering the vehicle and also are anti-corrosion
barriers. Sealers are applied to such areas as rear
compartment lid hem flanges, wheelhouse, quarter
outer, floor, cowl, roof, and various other panel to panel
attaching points. The originally sealed joints are obvious
and any damage to these sealed locations should be
corrected by resealing. Attaching points of new
replacement panels should be resealed. Replacement
lids and doors will also require sealing in the hem flange
areas.
Flanged joints, overlap joints, and seams should be
sealed using a quality sealer of medium-bodied
consistency. The sealer used must retain its flexible
characteristics after curing and be paintable.
Open joints which require bridging of the sealer in order
to close a gap should be sealed using a heavy-bodied
caulking material. Follow the label directions for the
material selected. Color application may be required in order to restore
repaired areas such as hood, fenders, doors, quarters,
lid, roof, engine compartment, underbody, and inner
panels to original appearance. When this is necessary,
conventional refinishing preparation, undercoat buildup,
and color application techniques should be followed.
Deadener materials, spray-on type, are used on various
metal panels in order to provide corrosion resistance and
joint sealing. They control the general noise level inside
the passenger area of the vehicle. When deadeners are
disturbed because of damage, are removed during
repair operations, or a new replacement panel is
installed, the deadener material must be replaced by a
service equivalent material. The application pattern and
location of deadener materials can be determined by
observing the original production installation.
Cleaning of the interior and underbody panel surfaces is
necessary when original galvanized or other anti-
corrosion materials have been burned off during welding
or heating operations. Removal of the residue from
burning will require additional care in such areas as
interior surfaces of box-type construction and when
configurations of the metal panels limit access to interior
surfaces.
Repair Instructions
Clearcoat Repair without Repainting
Repair Procedure
1. Thoroughly wash the repair area with Liquid Wash
and Wax GM P/N 1052870 or the equivalent.
2. Environmental damage may be corrected. Refer to
“Environmental Fallout (Acid Rain)” or “Rail Dust
Damage Repair”.
NOTE
Follow all of the instructions from the
manufacturer of the polishing material.
3. If sanding and/or polishing is required, refer to
“Clearcoat Repair Specifications - Meguiar Products”
or “Clearcoat Repair Specifications - 3M Products”.
4. Use a paint gage before, during, and after sanding
and/or polishing, to avoid removing too much
clearcoat. Refer to “Paint Gages”.
Environmental Fallout (Acid Rain)
CAUTION
!
Refer to “Clearcoat/Ultraviolet Screeners
Notice: ”.
NOTE
Always refer to the manufacturer's packaged
instructions for the detailed procedures of
materials used for compounding and/or
polishing.
Since the severity of the condition varies from area to
area, proper diagnosis of the contamination extent is
critical to the success of the repairs. Perform the
diagnosis under high intensity fluorescent lighting on the
horizontal surfaces (hood, roof panel, rear compartment
lid), after the surfaces have been properly cleaned by
washing the vehicle with Liquid Wash and Wax GM P/N
1052870, or equivalent.
There are 3 basic types of acid rain damage:
Surface Level Contamination: May be repaired by
simply washing the vehicle, cleaning the surface with
a silicone wax and grease remover, neutralizing
acidic residue, and finesse polishing—Refer to
Surface Level Contamination Repair.
Clearcoat Etching: Slight etching is still noticeable
after the above washing and finesse polishing
procedure. Refer to Slight Clearcoat Damage - Wet
Sanding, Finesse Polishing.
Basecoat Etching: Severe etching beyond the
clearcoat into the basecoat in the affected areas will
require refinishing. Refer to “Basecoat/Clearcoat
Paint Systems”.
