7.21 Care body car Opel Astra Removing small scratches If you scratch the surface and does not affect the metal body panels, its repair is extremely simple. To remove particles peeling paint and wax coating lightly rub scratched area fine grinding paste. Rinse the treated surface with clean water. Little brush paint scratch paint used for exterior body panels meet. Continue to apply paint layer by layer until, until its surface scratches inside it reaches the level of the surrounding surface refinishing panel. Give the new paint polymerization to be treated for at least two weeks, then abrade the surface of the transition is flush with the surface covering the rest of the panel using very fine grinding paste. Then cover the treated surface with wax. If the scratch has penetrated through the layer of paint, reaching a metal body and causing its corrosion, you should use a different technology repair. Knife scrape from scratch powdered rust, then treat the surface of the corrosion inhibitor, to avoid the development of pockets of corrosion in the future. Rubber or plastic spatula cover the damaged area inhibitor-treated fillers. If necessary, and this is especially useful when puttying narrow scratches, to form a fine paste putty can be diluted with a solvent. Before the putty hardens within the scratches, wrap the tip of the thumb of a smooth cotton cloth. Then, soak your finger in a solvent, quickly spend it along the putty surface scratches. This will make the surface slightly concave. Now, after setting filler treated with a scratch can be painted in accordance with the instructions given for cases where the scratch does not affect the metal. Repair dents When repairing dents priority is extension of the deformed surface in order to launch it to the initial level. Attempts to achieve one hundred percent of the original does not make sense, since it is still impossible because of violations of the internal structure of the metal body panels on impact. The best is to remove the concave surface to a level of approximately 3 mm below the surface of the surrounding undamaged area of the body panel. If the dent is not deep, its full extension has no meaning. In the case where a concave portion can be reached from the back of the panel should try to dent the inside-peen hammer with the busiest of soft material (rubber, plastic). Tapping dent, tightly to her face of the mallet to absorb the shock pulse in order to avoid excessive bending outwards deformed metal panels. If the crater formed on the two-layer section of panel, or access to it from the reverse side is not possible for any other reason, you should use a different method of extraction. Make a concave area panel several small holes, hoping that they were buried in most areas of bruising. Then screw the long screws into the holes, leaving their heads sticking out so that for them it was possible to grasp pliers. Now start pulling out dented forceps for screws.
