KW T800 Hood Support Cable Mount Repair Kit
It's easy to install Polyvance's KW T800 hood support cable mount repair kit.
Step 1
Clean the aluminum casting to remove any production oil residue using 1001-4 EcoPrep plastic cleaner (sold separately).
Step 2
Clean the damaged area of the hood with 1001-4 EcoPrep plastic cleaner. Dry completely
Step 3
Place the casting over damaged area. If the casting doesn’t fit, grind or sand the interference areas of the hood with a Roloc disk or a die grinder.
Step 4
Once enough material is removed to roughly fit the casting, trace the outline of the casting using a permanent market.
Step 5
Using the outline as a guide, sand the hood until unoxidized raw plastic is exposed. Hand sand inside the pocket with 60 grit or coarser sandpaper.
Step 6
Sand the mating surface of casting with a 24 to 50 grit to expose fresh aluminum.
Step 7
Test-fit the casting and grind away any material on the casting or hood to make the two fit. Gaps are acceptable and can be filled with adhesive.
Step 8
With the casting held in place, mark the screw hole locations with a permanent marker.
Step 9
Drill the 4 marked places with a 5/32” drill bit. Do not drill through both layers of plastic to the outside of the hood.
Step 10
Blow away all dust from the sanded surfaces.
Step 11
Apply about 1/3 of a cartridge of 2510 PlastiFix adhesive to the aluminum casting.
Step 12
Apply approximately 1/3 of a cartridge of 2510 PlastiFix adhesive to the surface of the hood.
Step 13
Press the casting in place.
Step 14
Install the (4) screws into the hood. Tighten them evenly until the gaps around the casting are equal.
Step 15
Smooth out the adhesive with a gloved finger, forcing excess adhesive into any gaps between the hood and the casting.
All done
Allow adhesive to cure for 24 hours before attaching the cable.
