Setting blind rivets: 

• Refer to repair instructions for rivet size.
• Position bores for blind rivets in accordance with specification in repair instructions. If necessary, carry over the positions of the blind rivets to the new part.
• Drill holes that exceed the outer diameter of the blind rivet (example Ø 4.2 mm with 4 mm blind rivet and Ø 6.8 mm with 6.5 mm blind rivet).
• The edge of the hole must even on both sides. If necessary, sand down and even out surfaces (e.g. edges of punch rivet connections). Deburr bores.
• Apply adhesive.
• Insert blind rivet. If necessary, remove adhesive that has emerged.

  Position blind rivet tool vertically. Use rivet head extension if accessibility is poor.

• Rivet blind rivet with blind rivet tool. In the meantime clean rivet head if dirty with adhesive. Risk of damage to rivet head by penetrating adhesive.
• Seal blind rivet with SEALANTD1  (risk of corrosion).
• Seal cavities after work on vehicle paintwork on with CAVITY SEALANT  (risk of corrosion).
