BACKGROUND
Many procedures in service bulletins and other service publications require you to use adhesives, sealants, lubricants, solvents, wool felt, EPT sealer, etc. While some of these materials look and feel similar to each other or to non-approved materials, always use the exact material listed in the service information or service bulletin to save yourself a costly comeback and a dissatisfied customer. Remember, a material that is "almost the same" probably will not do the job, or will not do it as well as the correct material. A recommended material is selected by Honda engineers only after its effectiveness has been evaluated under the conditions in which it will be used. To select the best materials, factors such as these are considered:
- The compounds that make up the part(s) being used
- The material's resistance to temperature, moisture, vibration, etc.
- Whether the material needs to be dry or pliable
- How the material bonds to dissimilar parts, for example, rubber to glass, plastic to rubber, and plastic to metal.
This service bulletin describes most of the recommended materials commonly referenced in Honda service and training publications. The materials are grouped into four categories: Insulating Products, Adhesives and Sealers, Greases and Lubricants, and Cleaners and Polishes. You can purchase these materials through local suppliers; many are also available through American Honda. Be sure to share this information with your parts department.
