The channel "Motor 71" has published a detailed video report on the processing of arches, bottoms and cavities. The technique will provide protection for a long time, the main thing is to follow the technology and not to miss a single section. In short, the process consists of several steps:
- ? Removal of fender liner, plastic lining and other elements that block access to the surface.
- ? Thorough cleaning with a pressure washer and drying.
- ? Noise isolation of arches (optional), bitumen-based material is used, which is heated with a hair dryer to improve adhesion.
- ? Next, anti-gravel is applied to cover the entire surface and prevent water from getting under the “shumka”.
- ? The bottom is processed with bitumen-polymer mastic, into which 10% of wax, previously dissolved in acetone, is introduced. This trick makes the coating plastic, it does not crack even in severe frosts.
- ? Cannon fat, heated to 50-60 degrees, is blown into thresholds and hidden cavities with a special pistol or a large syringe.
- ? The inside of the arches in the trunk, the wings and doors from the inside should be covered with cannon fat with beeswax so that the accumulated condensate does not provoke rust.
The author of the video has been dealing with anticorrosive for 20 years and, based on his own experience, claims that such processing is almost eternal. All this can be done by every car enthusiast, the process is dirty, but the result will pay off all the efforts. We recommend that you watch the video until the end to know all the nuances of the process.
