Renault 19 - Video tutorial

Model: Renault 19 MK 1 - Years 1988-1997
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Corroded body repair with fiberglass

The use of fiberglass to repair the bodywork should be intended for those elements of the bodywork that are precisely made of this material; when, on the other hand, the bodywork has points corroded by rust, a sheet metal work should be carried out by eliminating the corroded portion and shaping the new sheet metal to be welded and finished with putty and then painted. However, if you do not have great demands in terms of aesthetic performance, you can brush the area and apply pieces of glass resin to be fixed with the special gel suitably catalyzed; once dry it can be sanded and painted.

How to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo

Let's see in this short and simple guide the instructions that will allow us to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo. First of all we open the front door, on the driver's side, and start pulling the opening lever of the engine hood, in order to open the lock; then let's move to the front of the vehicle and unhook the tab that we find on the central part, above the manufacturer's emblem, as shown in the video. At this point we block the bonnet with the lateral rod; then we accompany the bonnet down to close it again!
