Repair Procedure
Since heat deformation of cladding occurs more easily than with bumpers, repair and refinishing of cladding panels is not recommended. If original parts are to be refinished, observe the following precautions during the refinish/drying process:
1. To prevent cladding warpage, hold the cladding firmly in place and keep drying temperature below 50°C (122° F).
2. Since the cladding and bumpers are made of a flexible plastic urethane material, use a 2-part urethane finish paint system with plasticizer for all bumper/cladding repairs.
