These are Thatcham Motor Insurance Repair Research Centre manuals for bodywork repairs and contains information on for example
Corrosion Protection:
Cavity Wax - Aerosol - 77 01 417 410
Cavity Wax - Container - 77 01 406 303
Aluminium Paint - Aerosol - Mig Welding Primer - 77 01 418 199
Zinc Paint - Aerosol - Resistance Spot Welding Primer - 77 01 406 425
Anti Gravel Mastic - Stone Chip Primer - 77 01 421 122
and it shows the points on the chassis and body parts etc where the cavity wax etc is inserted
Windscreen repair kits which include the sealer and spacers, suspension turret re-enforcement, everything you need to know about removing a body panel and where to weld in the new panels etc, very interesting stuff and i got those 4 manuals for £1.00 £2.99 with postage.
Well chuffed with this purchase |

look at the rear arches where the inner and outer skin are bonded.
On every one I hva came across theres a spot at the bottom then theres anothe rspout right at the top of the arch and sealant used to seal the rest of it. Is this hows its meant to be? |

According to the manual there is meant to be 5 resistance spot welds, 2 of those at the rear and the other 3 are at the leading edge of the arch, none at the top of the arch. The rest is sealed with metal to metal adhesive and joint sealer
The manual then goes on to recomend when replacing the panel to seal the insides with cavity wax then to use a row of resistance spot welds along the whole length of the arch finishing off with a joint sealant. |

imagine scanning 60 pages then uploading them to an image host, then getting chet to post them . . |
