Rust Resistant

Rust-Resistant Body

1. General

Rust-resistance performance is enhanced by extensive use of anti-corrosion sheet steel, as well as by anti-corrosion treatments, which include the application of anti-rust wax, sealer and anti-chipping paint to easily corroded parts such as the doors and rocker panels.

2. Anti-Corrosion Sheet Steel

Anti-corrosion sheet steel is used as shown in the following illustration.

3. Under Coat





PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) is applied to the underside of the body and other parts that are located where they could be affected by stone chipping damage, thus improving the rust-resistance performance of these areas.
