The fenders and their task
The rear fender and the front are part of the bodywork of the vehicle, they are placed above the wheels in order to cover them.This is intended to prevent unnecessary dirt and water thrown up from the road, which otherwise obstruct the view of other road users. In addition, the fenders are designed to provide reasonable protection against the rotating wheels of the vehicle, which could otherwise endanger pedestrians.
Damage to the fenders
The fenders are the outer lateral limits of the vehicle front and rear, so they can be damaged very quickly in minor and major accidents. Typical minor damage can occur quickly through carelessness when leaving a parking space, such as dents and scratches in the paint for example, especially at the outer edges. Especially the fender trailer wheel arches are constantly exposed splashes, dirt, road salt and stone chips, so the fenders are particularly susceptible to corrosion damage.If rust is not detected early and removed, it can spread further and further, and the sheet can completely rust in some places. To prevent rust damage, the vehicle should be washed regularly and looked after. In addition, a vacuum sealing can offer some protection against corrosion.
Flattening out the Fenders
Sometimes dents in sheet can be flattened out without requiring it to be repainted.The size of the dent it not necessarily the determining factor in whether a reshape is possible, but rather the paint surface must be undamaged in the area of the damage. In addition to the conventional buckling in which the dent from the inside is pushed out with the right force, there is also the technology to extract the dented sheet.
Removing damage and painting the fenders
The fenders are not among the supporting parts of the vehicle, which is why even minor damage can be solved with resin, fiberglass mats and filler. After filling it, the damaged area must be primed and sanded, then it can be painted. In any severe damage, it is advisable to remove the damaged area and to weld a new sheet.
