Weld-Through Primer Guidelines: Maserati
I-CAR · October 27, 2020 · Maserati
Summary
Maserati requires that all sheet metal superimpositions and flanges be coated with a specific welding primer (such as Inox spray) prior to welding. Additionally, technicians must remove paint from a 30 mm area around the weld zone, remove the zinc layer for MIG/MAG welding, and clean the paint from the back of the weld area to prevent impurities.
What to do on the job
Apply a specific welding primer (e.g., Inox spray) to all mating flanges, and ensure the paint is removed 30 mm around the weld zone and from the back of the weld area.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the labor and material costs for weld-through primer application, 30 mm paint removal around weld zones, and backside paint removal to prevent weld puddle contamination during structural repairs.
