Chevrolet Sonic Repair Manual: Full-Cut Method Description
Note:
- If corrosion of the pinch-weld flange is present, or if sheet metal
repairs or replacements are required, refinish the pinch-weld flange in
order to present a clean, primer-only surface.
- If paint repairs are required, mask the flange bonding area, prior to
applying the color coat, in order to provide a clean, primer-only surface.
- Appropriate materials for these primer applications are typically 2
component catalyzed products. Use materials such as BASF?€‰DE15?®, DuPont?€‰2610?®,
Sherwin-Williams PSE?€‰4600 and NP70?® and Martin-Semour?€‰5120 ,5130?®
, PPG?€‰DP90LF SPIES/HECKER?€‰3688/8590 ?€“ 3688/5150 ?€“ 4070/5090 STANDOX?€‰11158/13320
?€“ 14653/14980 products are approved for this application. Follow the manufacturer's
directions for the mix, the application, and the drying times.
- After repairing the opening as indicated, shake the pinch-weld primer
black?€‰#3 well. Using a new dauber, apply the primer to the primed surface
of the flange in the bonding area. Allow the primer to dry for 10?€‰minutes.
Use only the full cut method, also known in the field as full strip method, when
installing windows.
This method includes the following:
- The replacement of a majority of the urethane adhesive bead. Remove all
but approximately 2 mm?€‰(3/64?€‰in) of the existing bead of urethane adhesive
from the pinch-weld flange.
- Apply pinch-weld primer to any exposed painted areas on the pinch-weld flange.
No mounds or loose pieces of urethane adhesive should remain on the pinch-weld
flange. Do not remove all traces of urethane adhesive.
