General Description
Anti-Corrosion Treatment ConstructionS7RS0B9C01001
WARNING!
Standard shop practices, particularly eye protection, should be followed during the performance of the
following operations to avoid personal injury.

As rust proof treatment, steel sheets are given corrosion resistance on the interior and/or exterior.
These corrosion resistance steel sheet materials ar e called one of two-side galvanized steel sheets.
It is for the sake of rust protection that these materials are selected and given a variety of treatments as described
blow.
• Steel sheets are treated with cathodic electro primer which is excellent in corrosion resistance.
• Rust proof wax coatings are applied to door and side sill insides where mois ture is liable to stay.
• Vinyl coating is applied to body underside and wheel housing inside.
• Sealer is applied to door hem, engine compartment steel sheet-to-steel sheet joint, and the like portions to prevent water penetration and resulting in rust occurrence.
In panel replacement or collision damage repair, leaving the relevant area untreated as it is in any operation which
does disturb the rust proof treatment will cause corrosion to th at area. Therefore, it is the essential function of any
repair operation to correctly recoat t he related surfaces of the relevant area.
All the metal panels are coated with metal conditioners an d primer coating during vehicle production. Following the
repair and/or replacement parts installation, every access ible bare metal surface should be cleaned and coated with
rust proof primer. Perform this operation prior to the application of sealer and rust proof wax coating.
Sealer is applied to the spec ific joints of a vehicle during production. The sealer is intended to prevent dust from
entering the vehicle and serves also as an anti corrosion barrier. The sealer is applied to the door and hood hem areas
and between panels. Correct and reseal the originally sealed joints if damaged. Reseal the attaching joints of a new
replacement panel and reseal the hem area of a replacement door or hood.
Use a quality sealer to seal the flanged joints, overlap joints and seams. The sealer must have flexible characteristics
and paint ability after it’s applied to repair areas.
For the sealer to fill open joints, use caulking material. Select a sealer in conf ormance with the place and purpose of a
specific use. Observe the ma nufacturer’s label-stand instructions when using the sealer.
In many cases, repaired places require color painting. When this is required, follow the ordinary techniques specified
for the finish preparation, color painting and undercoating build-up.
Rust proof wax, a penetrative compound, is applied to the metal-to-metal surfaces (door and side sill insides) where it
is difficult to use ordinary undercoating material for coating. Therefore, when selecting the rust proof wax, it may be the
penetrative type.
During the undercoating (vinyl coating) application, care should be taken that sealer is not applied to the engine-
related parts and shock absorber mounting or rotating parts. Following the under coating, make sure that body drain
holes are kept open.
The sequence of the application steps of the anti-corrosion materials are as follows:
1) Clean and prepare the metal surface.
2) Apply primer.
3) Apply sealer (all joints sealed originally).
4) Apply color in areas where color is required such as hem flanges, exposed joints and under body components.
5) Apply anti corrosion compound (penetrative wax).
6) Apply undercoating (rust proof material).

Plastic Parts FinishingS7RS0B9C01002
Paintable plastic parts are ABS plastic parts.
Painting
Rigid or hand ABS plastic needs no primer coating.
General acrylic lacquers can be painted properly over hard ABS plastic in terms of adherence.
1) Use cleaning solvent for paint finish to wash each part.
2) Apply conventional acrylic color lacquer to part surface.
3) Follow lacquer directions for required drying time. (Proper drying temperature range is 60 – 70 °C (140 – 158 ° F)).
Reference
Plastic parts employ not only ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plastic but also polypro pylene, vinyl, or the like
plastic. Burning test method to iden tify ABS plastic is described below.
1) Use a sharp blade to cut off a plastic sliver from the part at its hidden backside.
2) Hold sliver with pincer s and set it on fire.
3) Carefully observe condition of the burning plastic.
4) ABS plastic must raise readily dist inguishable back smoke while burning with its residue suspended in air
temporarily.
5) Polypropylene must raise no readily distinguishable smoke while burning.
