12. Body Sheet Metal and Paint Repair Manual 12-13 BIW assembly Removal of adjacent components When removing adjacent components, attach protective tapes around the body and on the removal tool to avoid damage to the components. CAUTION: - If the paint film is damaged, be sure to repaint. 4. Matters about spot welding: In general, if the total thickness -a- of the welded plate exceeds 3 mm, a MIG welder should be used for fillet welding. Note: - Providing the total thickness of the steel plate exceeds 3 mm, then spot welding cannot guarantee sufficient durability. Remove new parts and body paint film that need to be welded, then apply a spot weld sealant (or penetration weld primer).
CAUTION: - Do not apply spot weld sealant (or penetration weld primer) to the outside of the contact surface. VOYAH FREE
