NOTE: The following illustrations are examples of structural adhesive application and are not all inclusive.

The correct adhesive bonding is essential to repairing the vehicle correctly. Adhesives are used in many areas of the body structure in place of welding. In addition to providing a structural bond between component, adhesives can also help prevent wind noise, water leaks, exhaust fumes and dust from entering the vehicle. They also provide anti-corrosion barriers.
