S 8.2.2 Painting magnesium rims
WARNING:
-
Damage and possible injury due to improper repair of paint damage to magnesium rims.
-
Improper repairs to magnesium rims can result in corrosion, which could reduce the operating strength and possibly lead to a broken
rim.
-
Replace the rims if there are any defects due to corrosion.
NOTE:
-
We recommend the following procedure for repairing paint damage to vehicle rims: If one of the following conditions is met, the rim should be
replaced:
-
Paint damage down to the base material in the area of the rim spokes, particularly in the section between the rim flange and spokes.
-
Corrosion defects in the area of the rim spokes, particularly in the section between the rim flange and spokes.
-
Paint damage that extends to the base material may only be repaired on the outer part of the rim flange.
-
Always avoid areas sanded through to the base material.
-
Surface painting is permitted after Level 2. The topcoat build-up corresponds to the procedure.
NOTE:
It is not possible to remedy damage to deeper surface layers using equipment available in the workshop. It may be possible to re-coat the
surface of the rim.
