 Introductory Message

For the learner:

Welcome to the Automotive Servicing Exploratory Module!
This is an Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) module on Preparing Surface for Sealant/
Adhesive. Education aims to develop learners to become fully functional and literate
individuals.
This Module is an exploratory and introductory course which leads you to
Automotive Servicing National Certificate Level I (NC I). It covers basic and common
competencies that a Grade 7 Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE)/ Technical

level of mastery in achieving the learning
competency.

Additional Activities In this portion, another activity will be given to

you to enrich your knowledge or skill of the
lesson learned. This also tends to the
retention of learned concepts.

Answer Key This contains answers to all activities in the

module.

At the end of this module you will also find:

References This is a list of all sources used in developing
this module.

The following are some reminders in using this module:

1. Use the module with care. Do not put unnecessary mark/s on any part of
the module. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises.
2. Don’t forget to answer What I Know before moving on to the other activities
included in the module.
3. Read the instruction carefully before doing each task.
4. Observe honesty and integrity in doing the tasks and checking your
answers.

 What I Need to Know

This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to
help you master the nature of Technical and Livelihood Education, in the field
of Automotive. The scope of this module permits it to be used in many
different learning situations. The language used recognizes the diverse
vocabulary level of students. The lessons are arranged to follow the standard
sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them can be
changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.

After reading this module, the learners should be able to:

 Identify surface materials as per construction.
 Clean The surface free from moisture, dust, and other foreign objects
to ensure maximum adhesion or seal.

 What is It

PREPARE SURFACE FOR SEALANT/ADHESIVE

SAFETY TIPS

Make sure you read any warnings on the packaging of the glues or
sealants; otherwise you may damage the component you are working on.

Many products must be used only in a well-ventilated area, don't ignore

this warning because the fumes they give off are often enough to make you
pass out.

Some types of adhesive can cause considerable irritation if they come

into contact with your skin, so wear gloves when handling them. If an
adhesive does come into contact with your skin, you can usually wash it off
with soap and water. If you get any in your eyes, wash the affected area with
large amounts of water, and seek medical assistance right away.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Four basic steps for sealant preparation

Clean the mating surface to

free from dust, water and any
foreign objects that could affect
the performance of
sealant/adhesive.

Cleaning is the key to good

sealant adhesion.

5
 Prime the mating surface to
ensure and improve adhesion.

It is critical that the sealant fills

the entire joint or cavity and
firmly contacts all surfaces
intended to receive sealant. If
the joint is improperly filled,
good adhesion will not be
achieved, and sealant
performance will be weakened.

Use proper tool to forces the

sealant against the back-up
material and the joint
surfaces.

Aside from cleaning and priming, there are some factors that can affect
the bond strength application of sealant/ adhesive.
 SURFACE TYPE

Not all adhesive will work on every

surface. It is very important to know
what kind of surface you are going
to use, so that you can select the
proper adhesive/sealant.

6
 TEMPERATURE

Temperature can also affect the

performance of the adhesive/
sealant when applying it to the
surface. check first the room
temperature for a nice and smooth
application result.

 ADHERENCE STRENGTH/TACK

Hot melt adhesives are softened

repeatedly by heat, or set by cooling,
which allows for repositioning during
assembly. Often, removable adhesives
are used as positioning aids during
product build.
