Overview
The all aluminium body underframe is bonded using an immensely strong hot-cured XD4600 red adhesive.
The rear quarter panels, roof and side mouldings are bonded to the structure using cold-cured 2810 MV adhesive. The curing cycle is improved by using a hot air impingement system.
The composite front wings are bolted to the structure.
At no time should the body structure be subjected to temperatures in excess of 120°C (248°F).
