Removing Sealing Materials

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.
IMPORTANT:
  • Do not burn off PVC material (sealing compound) with a gas burner or similar or heat to temperatures above 180°C. This would generate highly corrosive hydrochloric acid and release harmful fumes.
  • The new lining does not form a satisfactory bond with burnt PVC material which means that subsequent sub-surface rust may set in.

Remove PVC material with a rotating steel brush, or heat PVC to maximum 180°C with a hot air blower and scrape off with a spatula.
