    Do not heat quarter outside moulding LH and No. 1 body outside moulding pad excessively.

    1. When reusing the quarter outside moulding LH:
      1. Using a heat light, heat the quarter outside moulding LH.

      3. Wipe off any tape adhesive residue with cleaner.
        NOTE:
        • Installing the No. 1 body outside moulding pad with some double-sided tape remaining may cause poor adhesion. Perform this procedure until the tape is sufficiently removed.
        • Make sure to use a cloth when removing. Using a screwdriver, etc., may cause damage and poor adhesion.

      NOTE:
      • Replace the brush or felt if it is dirty or has become hardened.
      • Keep any painted surface free from primer.
      • If the primer contacts a painted surface, it may leave light primer marks. Therefore, use protective tape when using liquid primer.
      • Do not touch surfaces to which primer has been applied until the No. 1 body outside moulding pad has been attached.
    3. Let the primer dry sufficiently.
      NOTE:

      Do not touch applied surfaces until the primer is dry.

      Recommended drying time

      10 minutes or more (at 23°C (73°F))

      NOTE:

      Do not heat quarter outside moulding LH and No. 1 body outside moulding pad excessively.

    5. Remove the release paper from the No. 1 body outside moulding pad.
      NOTE:

      After removing the peeling paper, do not touch the surface of the tape with your fingers or cotton work gloves.
