square indict ofgslvanized steel Zlnoromatai lineromctal is one of tht newer corrosion inhibli tors used by Ford Motor Company it involves the application of two coats of protective materiaion steel prior to being iormed into body panels The rst coating is corrosioninhlbiting adhesion layer which is applied and then baited The second coating rim primer is him heatcurcd Zincrometalis used for some inner door panels quarter panel extensions on stationwagons and outer and inner tailgate panels which involves dipping the entire car hodyinto tank Floorpan Zincrich ptlmartsllbarallyaprayad here and nntrunklids Inton Wax coating 0f aluminired unit has been added to several arm of the car body where there is high po tential for water entrapment such as the inside surfaces of doors and quarter panels The aluminized wax is gunspraycd into these hatdAtorracb areas and as it basdens it forms esible protective lm The spraying is done by trained operators using special wands developed specically for this process ZincRich irimor Zincrich primer his been used on Ford products since l960 it is sprayed liberally on key areas such as thelnner tide ofouter door panels parts of the floor pans and

as hoods front fenders and inside wheel housings in addition vinyl is used extensivelyon seams where metsl meets metal such is wheel wells quarter panels and tailgate assemblies of station nagons Sound Deadoner Much of the credit for Fords quietrunning cars goes to th use and placement of sound dcadencr ma terials within the body shell The addition of corrosioninhibitor to this deadcner helps
