1985 EXTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS

All 1985 Oldsmobiles have exterior parts made of various types of plastic materials that require specific procedures to obtain high quality refinishing results. Included in this bulletin is a chart listing the different types of plastic materials used on 1985 models. For best results when painting is required, determine the type of plastic material from the chart; then follow the correct paint procedure, depending upon what painting material and equipment is available.

PLASTIC TYPE SYMBOL ------------ ------- Thermoset Urethane RRIM Thermoplastic Urethane TPU Thermosetting Polyester UP Thermoplastic Urethane RIM Thermoplastic Elastomer TPE

1. GENERAL PAINT PROCEDURE FOR EXTERIOR FLEXIBLE PLASTICS

Polyvinylchloride (PVC), Polyurethane (PUR, TPUR, RRIM, RIM), Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE), Thermoplastic Polyester (SMC), EPDM Rubber (Supplied in Prime).

There are a multitude of finishing systems available on the market for painting and/or repairing flexible plastic parts. Following is a general outline of painting procedures, including a list of available products. Refer to the manufacturer's literature available through their jobbers for details on proper mixing and application.

A. Thoroughly clean part by washing with a suitable cleaning solvent* to remove all surface contaminates.

#### NOTICE: Previously painted parts that show signs of cracking, peeling or improper adhesion must be stripped before repainting. The old finish may be removed with any commercially available chlorinated solvent stripper or lacquer thinner.

#### NOTICE: Do not soak parts longer than necessary to remove the old paint to avoid swelling.

B. Scuff sand to an even dull appearance the entire surface to be painted with fine (400 grit or less) sandpaper and feather edge any damaged areas and rewash as in Step A above.

#### NOTICE: Unpainted parts do not require sanding prior to painting, but should be thoroughly cleaned as in Step A above.

C. Apply two (2) thin coats of primer when required per top coat manufacturer's recommendation and allow to completely dry before proceeding. (For most products, approximately 30 minutes).

D. Prepare color coat according to the manufacturer's recommendation and apply sufficient double coats to develop the proper shade. For best results allow a few minutes flash time between each double coat and allow to completely dry before using.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
