Clean the metal part and carefully inspect the groove:
- It must not be bent or folded
Straigten the mould of the groove to prevent damaging the new shelf floor during installation.
Our part was cleaned with a Bristle-Disc and derusted with Fertan.
After that we painted the metal part twice with black Brantho Korrux 3-in-1 which made a sturdy slightly uneven surface.
The new shelf floor can be installed as soon as the paint went dry.
push the repair part into the groove straight and clean. When doing this the wire bow must be pused over the groove.
Make sure that the vinly lies on the circumferential reinforcement in the recesses provided in the metal part, otherwise unattractive folds will form at the ends.
Refit the wire bow tappet. Here you can see the screw head.
Now lay the vinyl on the left side above the sheet metal and press the clamps back on.
