BODY REPAIR
1. When repairing and painting a portion of the body adjacent to plastic parts, consider their characteristics
(influence of heat and solvent) and remove them if neces sary or take suitable measures to protect them.
2. Plastic parts should be repaired and painted using methods suiting the materials
, characteristics.

Precaution in Repairing High Strength SteelINFOID:0000000005396725
High strength steel is used for body panels in order to reduce vehicle weight.
Accordingly, precautions in repairing automotive bodies made of high strength steel are described below:
HIGH STRENGTH STEEL (HSS) USED IN NISSAN VEHICLES
SP130 is the most commonly used HSS.
SP150 HSS is used only on parts that require much more strength.
Read the Following Precautions When Repairing HSS:
1. Additional points to consider
