Description

Door seal protruding/loose (Figure 1)
Cause:

Insufficient adhesion between adhesive strip of door frame sea l and paint surface.
Remedy:

Situation 1:

Door frame seal is loose over a length of up to max. 20 cm (Figure 1):

- Partially tape down door frame seal to body using suitable adhesive tape to allow the repair adhesive to be more easily applied (Figure 2).

- Thinly coat the entire surface of the affected area of the door frame seal (only the surface of the adhesive tape) and

the affected paint surface with repair adhesive using a spatula (Figures 3 and 4).

- Allow a minimum flash-off time of 25 minutes so that the adhesive surface is sufficiently dry (check by touching the

adhesive - it must be dry and no longer tacky).

- Then join th e two adhesive surfaces together under pressure (contact adhesive), without separating and repositioning the door seal.

- The doors must not be closed for 20 minutes after applying the repair adhesive, to achieve optimal adhesion.

Situation 2:

Door frame seal is loose over a length of more than 20 cm:

- Replace door frame seal on front door.

- Replace door frame seal on rear door.
