Corrosion Perforation

Corrosion Preforation

Overview:

Corrosion perforation is any hole that has formed because of a corrosion condition When repairing corrosion perforation you must remove all corrosion prior to beginning the repair.

A cosmetic body panel does not require replacement in all cases of perforation. A new partial panel can be hand crafted or cut from an OE panel to accomplish a good lasting repair

Corrosion perforation can be repaired using a repair panel and the overlap process or the backer panel process. The type of section to be used is usually determined by the location of the condition. A lower quarter panel can usually be repaired using the overlap procedure. On the other hand, using a backer panel to repair corrosion on the roof would be a better choice. Areas like a roof, which require a smoother transition of the new replacement panel and the existing panel, the backer process usually works better.
