BODY STRUCTURE


  1. General


    1. Rust-resistant performance is enhanced extensive use of anti-corrosion sheet steel, as well as by an anti-corrosion treatment that includes the application of anti-rust wax, sealer and anti-chipping paint to easily corroded part such as hood and fender.

  2. Anti-corrosion Sheet Steel


    1. Anti-corrosion sheet steel has widely been used to the body for providing an anti-corrosion performance.

  3. Wax and Sealer


    1. Wax is applied to edge of the door lower portion, door hinge and fuel filler lid hinge to improve rust-resistant performance. Sealer is applied to hemmed portions of the door panels and engine hood.

  4. Under Coat


    1. Acrylic acid resin is applied to under side of the body, inside the wheel housing and other parts that are susceptible to damage from stone chips, thus improving the rust resistance of these areas.

  5. Anti-chipping Application


    1. A soft-chip primer is used on the front end of the hood in order to minimize paint damage due to chipping and improve the anti-corrosion performance.
