Every car owner knows that sealing strips can improve air tightness and prevent wind and rain from entering the cabin. However, few car owners attach great importance to the maintenance of door and window sealing strips. In fact, the maintenance of door and window sealing strips is very important because once the sealing strips age and become damaged, it will cause rain leakage in the cabin, increase the driving wind noise of the car, and leakage can easily cause rusting of the car body. Therefore, car owners must regularly maintain the door and window sealing strips.
Door and window sealing strips have undergone maintenance under high summer temperatures and the baptism of rain. As car owners, we should pay more attention to the maintenance of door and window sealing strips. However, many car owners are blind to the maintenance of door and window sealing strips because they do not know how to maintain them. Today, we will introduce a few maintenance methods for door and window sealing strips, hoping to help everyone solve this problem.
Several places to pay attention to sealing during car repair
After the car window glass is damaged, the owner should check whether the sealing strip is damaged when replacing the glass. Due to the fact that car windows often cannot return to their original shape after repair, in addition to ensuring easy pulling or lifting of the window glass, attention should also be paid to the sealing around the window glass. If the gap between the glass and the glass groove is uneven, and the rubber strip has poor contact with the glass and glass groove, the car owner can easily pull off the sealing strip by hand.
When changing the roof of the car, the owner should first apply a layer of conductive sealant around the edge of the roof. After welding, apply a layer of edge glue in the water channel and joint. This not only helps to seal the car body, but also prevents early rusting of the car body due to water accumulation at the edge welding joint.
When replacing the entire vehicle body, in addition to completing the above items, a layer of sealant should be applied to the overlapping part of the weld seam. The thickness of the sealant layer should be about 1mm, and there should be no defects such as virtual adhesion or bubbles in the sealant layer; A 3mm-4mm elastic coating and anti-corrosion coating should be applied to the entire floor surface and front wheel casing surface; These measures can not only greatly enhance the sealing of the entire vehicle and slow down the rusting speed of the body, but also greatly improve ride comfort.
