Bumps or iron dust on paint surface.
Rail dust, which comes from tiny iron particles produced from the friction between the train wheels and the track, gets deposited on the surface of the paint. Iron dust can get deposited on the surface of the paint if the vehicle is stored near any operation producing iron dust such as a steel ore yard. Rail and/or iron dust can either lay on top of, or embed into, the paint surface.
Remove rail and/or iron dust using an after market rail/iron dust remover. There are two types of repair materials recommended by Saturn Corporation to repair rail and/or iron dust damage.
Regardless of the material used, follow the
manufacturer's recommendations for application and safety.Important

GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians,
NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these
technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to
provide information that could assist in the proper service of a
vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment,
tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a job properly and
safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the
bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have
that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether
your vehicle may benefit from the information. |
