WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2013 BMW 135is, 2013 BMW 135i, 2013 BMW 128i, 2012 BMW 135i, and 2012 BMW 128i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The hardening time is:
- Either 48 hours at a minimum of 15°C (room temperature) up to vehicle operational strength.
- Or 1 hour in the spraying booth (booth temperature 80°C/object temperature 60°C) up to vehicle operational strength.
- Do not use radiant heaters for hardening. Risk of adhesive being destroyed at temperatures of ≥ 120°C.
- Do not apply load to glued parts until they have hardened!
