Body repair "Gazelle" - is it really necessary?

Extend the life of the car, reduce the cost of its maintenance allows for timely carried out body repair. "Gazelles", like any other low-tonnage vehicles, most often need a body repair. Drivers often neglect the characteristics of the car, trying to transport at a time more products than the maximum load capacity of the machine. This inevitably leads to the deterioration of not only the engine, transmission, but also the body elements. You can not exclude the aggressive influence of the environment, because cars spend most of the time on the street. Therefore, body repair should become an obligatory operation when visiting the service station.

Typical types of damage

Typically, body repair "Gazelle" includes measures to restore the integrity of plastic and steel elements, as well as components made from various alloys of aluminum and other metals. Every detail is overcome by certain problems, the most common of which are as follows:

  • Violation of the integrity of paintwork - cracking, peeling, development of corrosion - typical for metal elements;
  • The formation of cracks and breaks is characteristic of plastic components, since they have less plasticity than steel parts;
  • The appearance of dents with chipping, cracking LKP pursues metal structures, but this problem can disturb and polymer materials.

A characteristic problem of low-tonnage vehicles is the violation of geometry. Offset axes, the formation of cracks in the frame - to eliminate these problems can not every center that produces body repair "Gazelle". In some cases, it is cheaper to "hand" the car for scrap metal, rather than repair it.

Redecorating

Under the cosmetic repair is most often understood as the restoration of the paint and varnish coating. It is necessary not only to return the car to a pristine and attractive appearance, but also to protect it from corrosion. Water, seeping into small cracks, becomes the main cause of rust formation. If scratches or chips are completely "fresh", then do without mechanical treatment of the body. Very often in such cases, perform body repair "Gazelle" with their own hands. For this, the damaged surface is treated with a solvent. Then a layer of primer and paint is applied. Each "new" layer is applied after the previous one has dried completely.

If corrosion marks were found at the site of damage, then it is necessary to apply to SRT, because removal of foci of corrosion by mechanical means is required. It is best if sandblasted abrasive treatment is applied.

Restoring hard-to-reach places

The factory protective coating of the car's bottom is often covered by microdamages, loses its properties, which makes the metal completely defenseless. In this case, the body repair "Gazelle" is to apply bituminous mastic with a preliminary treatment of the possible development of corrosion by abrasive plants.

Other experts consider internal surfaces of spars, thresholds and niches of doors to be the most vulnerable and at the same time hard-to-reach places. In these places, corrosion develops due to a rare and permissive inspection by drivers. In this case, minor damages are also eliminated by thick mastic and special compounds, for example "Movil".

Body repair

Directly body repair "Gazelle Next", for example, is carried out to eliminate dents and more serious defects. Restoration of the elements of the car is beneficial only in those cases where a small front of work is assumed. In other situations it is better to replace the damaged element.

Today, progressive technologies are being used to eliminate dents. In particular, they use hydraulic "pullers", which literally stretch the dent, returning the original appearance to the car. To eliminate chipping, breaks of plastic elements, body repair "Gazelle Next" is performed using special soldering irons, thermo-guns and hair dryers. Tighten with the elimination of these damages can not. Otherwise, you will create conditions for the development of corrosion, which ultimately forces you to carry out a major body repair. "Gazelle", the prices for which are skyrocketing, after carrying out such work, simply will not pay off. Prevent spending in the future right now.
