Automotive Adhesives - From Design To Repair
, structural, or load-bearing, adhesives are usually applied at the body-in-white stage when metal panels are fresh from the presses and covered in forming oil, and plastic panels are still covered in mold-release chemicals. To cure, they require temperatures as high as 130 C. Not only do aftermarket...
