What is the correct Cavity Sealant Protection?
Hello, I am replacing my front bumper carrier. In TIS, it instructs one to apply cavity sealant.
There are three valid options in the 2023 Service Fluids and Chemical Products. Can someone please help me understand what I should purchase to follow procedure? I am trying to achieve dealership level care in my work and want this to be right. Thanks

It looks like the 5th item is the prep, the 1st does the job, and the 4th is the cleaner if you get too much of it in places you don't want it (or it drips out later once the weather gets hot). <-- Edit - not this

Hopefully someone that actually works in a body shop or has that background will see this. Last edited by tracer bullet; 01-27-2024 at 09:38 AM.. |

OMG - sorry, yes, that! Not sure WTF I was counting.
Seems like #2 is a foam filler, as opposed to a surface protector? Maybe it can do double duty. The surface stuff I think is what oozed out of my 135i for the first 6 months I had it. Brown sticky substance all over the place. Just guessing on all of it of course. |
