Panel replacement procedure

This procedure is designed to explain the basic panel 
removal and replacement method. The main criterion 
in removal and replacement of body panels is that 
the original standard is maintained as far as possible. 
While individual repairs will differ in detail, this 
procedure has been devised placing emphasis on 
ease of repair and the elimination of unnecessary 
work.

Body panels are being increasingly manufactured in 
high strength steels to meet design requirements for 
safety and weight saving. As panels in high strength 
steels cannot be visually identified, and as they are 
more sensitive to excess heat than panels 
manufactured from low carbon steel, it is advisable 
that the following procedure be observed at all times.

Remove panel

1. Expose resistance spot welds. For those spot 

welds which are not obviously visible, use a 
rotary impregnated wire brush fitted to an air 
drill, or alternatively a hand held wire brush.

NOTE: In wheel arch areas it may be necessary 
to soften underbody coating, using a hot air 
gun, prior to exposing spot welds.

2. Cut out welds using a cobalt drill.

3. Alternatively, use a clamp-type spot weld 

remover.
