WEATHER GUARD® PRODUCT
REFINISHING PROCEDURES
All WEATHER GUARD® products are
finished with a polyester powder coat-
ing, and it is important to follow these
procedures to get proper adhesion.
As Knaack
LLC. cannot control the
finishing of the products, the warranty
for
WEATHER GUARD® products on
paint is not applicable on refinished
products.
1. Sand the surface to be painted with
180-200 grit sand paper to rough up
the surface. This should be followed
by wet sanding with a 400 grit wet or
dry paper.
2. Wipe down the sanded surface with
ketone based thinner. This removes
the dust and softens the powder coat-
ing for better paint adhesion.
3. Wipe sanded area with a tack rag
to remove loose dust and particles
before painting.
NOTE: Do not use a lacquer over
the powdered coating.
WARNING
All floor mounting bolts near
the gas tank area should be
installed from the underside
of the vehicle, to guard against
the gas tank being punctured
in the event of a collision.
CAUTION
To keep debris out of your eyes
when checking the underside
of the vehicle, or when drilling,
always wear protective eyewear.
WARNING
Prior to drilling, so as not to cut
or puncture fuel tanks, fuel
lines, brake lines, electric wires,
etc., check under vehicle for
locations.
