Engine/Motor Compartment Seam Sealant
When repairing, seam sealing is to be replicated according to its original conditions in appearance and layer thickness.
Sealing seams near attachments to be installed must be applied smoothly in order to avoid damage and malfunctions.
Water drain holes must stay clear.
All threaded pins and weld nuts with M-threads, as well as all other pins and contact surfaces for the assembly must be functional after the sealant application.
The sealing material must not be applied to bare surfaces. It may only be applied to coated surfaces.
