How it’s applied3M™ Structural Adhesive Tape SAT1010 is typically applied during the body-in-white process, where it undergoes automotive paint pre-treatment process and then the e-coat process. The tape expands and cures in the e-coat cure oven to fill and seal small gaps the hem. For typical hem designs, the tape forms a continuous barrier between both similar and dissimilar materials.
