Squeaking Interior Trim - KRYTOX(R) Fluid For Trim Refinement Applications

Issue:

KRYTOX(R) fluid is now available via Jaguar Parts Operations. It is an inert, safe, easy to use material, likened by many to liquid TEFLON, which may be used as a durable fix for squeaks associated with interior trim, weatherstrips and rubber seals and bushes.

Action:

Being inert, non-volatile and compatible with most materials, KRYTOX(R) may be used as a durable solution for squeaks on interior or exterior trim, regardless of location on the vehicle. Once applied, KRYTOX(R) is not visible and may be used as an alternative to felt pads and tapes, which can be unsightly and difficult to apply.





Typical applicable includes:

APPLICATION METHOD

KRYTOX(R) should be applied sparingly to the target surface area using the integral nozzle of the plastic bottle. Only a few drops are required for most applications. This may be further spread to cover larger surface areas using a cloth, brush, or sponge to leave a very thin film of the fluid on the surface concerned.

Caution:
Care must be taken during application to ensure that KRYTOX(R) is not applied or spread over any surface to which any other trim component is to be fixed using adhesives; the material is extremely adhesive-resistant. Take care that the material is not spread inadvertently by contact with shop cloths, brushes or sponges used in any application, or residual material on a technician's fingers.

!Warning:
Wear safety glasses and impervious gloves when handling KRYTOX(R). Wash hands thoroughly using soap and water immediately after handling the product and before breaks. In case of eye contact, rinse with plenty of water. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist. In case of ingestion, rinse mouth, drink water as a precaution. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Consult a physician if irritation occurs or persists.
