the new parts. Select an excellent anti-corrosive wax which will penetrate after application and has a long shelf
life.
UndercoatingINFOID:0000000012430800
The underside of the floor and wheelhouse are undercoated to prevent rust, vibration, noise and stone chip-
ping. Therefore, when such a panel is replaced or re paired, apply undercoating to that part. Use an undercoat-
ing which is rust preventive, soundproof, vibr ation-proof, shock-resistant, adhesive, and durable.
Precautions in Undercoating
1. Do not apply undercoating to any place unless specif ied (such as the areas above the muffler and three
way catalyst which are subjected to heat).
2. Do not undercoat the exhaust pipe or other parts which become hot.
3. Do not undercoat rotating parts.
4. Apply bitumen wax after applying undercoating.
