Condition Two: Apply Noxudol 700 and Noxudol 300

1. Remove the side frame hole plug from the driver and passenger side frame rails. See Figure 6. Save these plugs. They may be reinstalled at step 13.


2. Using a hammer knock on the outside of the frame rail in the area indicated in Figure 4 to loosen any rust on the inside of the frame.


3. Using a blow gun through the side frame hole blow any rust debris to the front end and to the rear end of the frame away from the area indicated in Figure 4.


4. Using a wire brush and scraper remove any loose coating material and rust from the outside frame and rear lower trailing link front mounting bracket area on both driver and passenger sides.

5. Using a dry rag remove any remaining dust or debris. If the application area is wet use a blow gun to remove any water.

6. Locate the long spray nozzle for Noxudol 700 and place a mark (tape or pen) 300mm (12 inches) and 200mm (7 inches) from the spray end of the nozzle. This mark indicates how far you will insert the long nozzle for some of the following steps. See Figure 7. Install the long spray nozzle onto a can of Noxudol 700.

NOTE:
During these next steps place a drain pan below the frame's drain hole. Excess Noxudol 700 will run out of the frame's drain hole. This should be expected and considered normal.

CAUTION:
Noxudol propellant is highly flammable. Keep away from sources of ignition ~ no smoking. Keep at temperature not exceeding +50°C.

IMPORTANT:
Wear hand and eye protection to avoid direct contact. Application should be performed in an area with adequate ventilation. See manufacturer's information for details.





7. Insert the long spray nozzle with NOXUDOL 700 into the drain hole located on the bottom of frame up to the 300mm (12 inches) mark. Then spray NOXUDOL 700 while drawing out the nozzle. Spray two times. See Figures 8 and 9.





8. Insert the long spray nozzle with NOXUDOL 700 into the side frame hole toward the front of the vehicle up to the 300mm (12 inches) mark. Then spray NOXUDOL 700 while drawing out the nozzle. Spray four times. See Figure 10.

9. Insert long spray nozzle with NOXUDOL 700 into the side frame hole toward the rear of the vehicle up to the 200m (7 inches) mark. Then spray NOXUDOL 700 while drawing out the nozzle. Spray four times. See Figure 11.





10. Insert long spray nozzle with NOXUDOL 700 through the side frame hole up and down. See Figures 12 and 13. Then spray NOXUDOL 700 with drawing out the nozzle. Spray two times in each direction.

11. Switch from the long spray nozzle to the short spray valve shown in Figure 7 and spray one coat of Noxudol 700 onto the outside of both driver and passenger side in the area indicated in Figure 4. Be careful not to overspray onto the exhaust system or body painted areas.

12. Using the short spray nozzle spray Noxudol 300 onto both driver and passenger side as indicated in Figures 4 and 5. Be careful not to overspray onto the exhaust system or body painted areas.
