Rebuilding an OEM seam, for example, is a time- and resource-saving alternative to replacing parts. However, the rebuilt seam must not only offer a showroom finish, it must also prevent corrosion and the ingress of moisture and dirt.
Such a task therefore demands the application of an innovative yet proven product offering attributes like low shrinkage, the potential to apply by spraying, easy smoothing in the event of imperfections during application, and tolerance of spot-welding operations. Henkel’s driving brand in this field is Teroson, a range which includes sealing products, dispensing equipment and nozzles that enable body shops to recreate original OEM seams, regardless of whether a smooth, wavy or rippled finish is required. The flagship product Teroson MS 9320 SF is an SMP-based chemical-curing sealant. Available in different colour choices, this innovative product can be painted over just 30 minutes after application. This offers good stability, is free of isocyanate and silicone, and provides adhesion to many different surfaces without primer. The product also gives good resistance to UV and corrosion.
