Maintain drying time for overpainting.
When replacing sheet attached parts (doors, trunk lid, etc.) and also body parts welded in place, carefully seal the folds and openings with body sealant in order to avoid corrosion and leaks. The spot weld seams and the rivets must be sealed on both sides.
The brushes, wooden spatulas, etc. used to spread the body sealant should generally be cleaned only with pure benzine. If these objects are cleaned with paint thinner or other alcoholic liquids before applying the body sealant, the sealant does not cure and remains sticky.
