When the driver decides to buy a car. The first thing that always draws his close attention is, of course, its appearance, and only after that some other details are considered. It should be noted that for a man the appearance of its car is also important, as for a woman its appearance, so it is considered carefully every detail and an element located on the surface of the car. Let's talk today about one of these elements - molding, and find out how it can be removed and in general, for which it is necessary.
Car design
Despite the fact that many acquire a car in order to use it as a vehicle, and not as an element of luxury, the warrior wants his "swallow" looks good. It turns out that the design is an important component of any car. It is created by various kinds of elements and parts, according to the type of deflectors, coloring, various kinds of stickers and moldings.
It often happens that the drivers have a desire or the need to relieve moldings, but to do it right, without damaging either the vehicle, nor the item itself, it is necessary to know the right approach to this case and some nuances of the process under consideration.
Some drivers tend to believe that moldings on the door look not as aesthetically and beautiful, like, for example, a metal piece of solid type. Despite this point of view, almost all modern cars include moldings on the door of the body, so you will not get new transport without the part in question, it will not work. Moldings are located both on top of the door and on its lower part.
In principle, Moldings located on the bottom of the door are not as often and difficult will find a car with such an element of the decor., But despite this. The detail under consideration performs a series of functions, one of the most important is the protection of the lower part of the car body from departing during the movement of small and large stones. Crushed stone and other items that may be on the road.
If someone thinks that the upper molding is exclusively an element of the building design, you are very mistaken, because this kind of item serves as protection from entering the salon moisture and water (during rain and other weather phenomena), so before making a decision Get rid of this element, think again - and whether it is worth doing to and for what.
Experts do not prohibit Moldings from the car, but at the same time, no one speaks about getting rid of them forever, they are not recommended to do so, so it is worth listening to the opinion of people who know the sense in this matter. If you still decided to remove the molding, let's find out exactly how to produce this process.
Remove molding
Sometimes it happens that it becomes necessary to remove or replace molding. The reasons for this may be different, but the most common of them are:
- the need to adjust the form of a car body after some road accident
- the development of molding (this means that Molding has fully coped with its main task and requires replacement for a new one)
- the driver had a desire to put new modern models of moldings, which in his opinion look better than the older or their improved protective characteristics
It does not matter exactly what the reason for the need to replace the details considered, this process occurs equally for any cases. Let's look at the process of removal and its nuances:
- In many cases, the elements under consideration are attached to the body of bilateral scotch, so it is not recommended to simply approach them, because there is a great probability, to damage the paint-type coating.
- In order to relieve such a molding, the best option is to take a plastic spatula, thanks to which you can easily pick one part of the molding and rejuvenate it completely from the car body.
- The process in question occurs as follows - we turn on the construction hairdryer into the rosette and gently warm up the entire surface of the molding, then carefully use one side of the part with a spatula and gently dugs gradually the entire surface of the molding. If suddenly you will feel that it has become hard to spin some part of the part, it is warm it up with a construction dryer.
- It happens that molding is attached to the body with some rivets, and it happens with self-draws. Sometimes there is a combined type of fastening of these parts. If this is your case, then you should know that a successful dismantling of this sort of molding will be possible only in the case of removing the door weighing. Having done this operation, you will be able to disconnect rivets without problems and unscrew the screws that were under the trim.
So, if you removed the molding, and it remained a sticky trail, you should not use the solvent, because this composition will very quickly solvent paint on the body, but glue can stay on its surface, so be careful. In order to get rid of the sticky imprint, you can try to melt the construction hairdryer sticky base and remove it with a dry cloth.
As it turns out, it is not so difficult to remove the moldings on their own, as it could seem at first glance, so the driver will not even need extraneous assistance or a specialist, for the challenge and whose work will have to pay.
