Lincoln Nautilus: Body System - General Information / Body - Overview. Description and Operation

Insulation

Insulation is used as a sound-deadener to reduce exterior road and powertrain noises from the interior of the vehicle. Mastic insulators are also used as insulation. Insulation is installed:

  • under the roof.
  • above and below the instrument panel.
  • at the cowl side panels.
  • over the front and rear floorpans.
  • inside the B-, C- and D-pillar sections.
  • on the wheelhouse/quarter panel.
  • behind the rear quarter trim panel.

Other forms of insulation include:

  • front tunnel stiffening pad.
  • dash panel stiffener.
  • rear wheelhouse mastic pads.

It has heat-bonded mastic deadeners for improved NVH characteristics.

It also has sound dampeners located inside the D-pillar and plug holes in the inner rear quarter.

Body Sealer Types and Applications

Seam Sealer

  • heavy-bodied, non-sag adhesive/sealer used on standing cosmetic seams, truck bed seams, tooled door skin seams and floorpans.
  • can be used on water leaks and noise concerns.

Silicone Gasket and Sealant

  • form-in-place gasket and multi-purpose adhesive/sealant.
  • room temperature curing silicone rubber.

Silicone Spray Lubricant

  • keeps the door and window weatherstrip pliable and soft.
  • makes the door easier to close.
  • retards weatherstrip squeaks.
  • retards weatherstrip wear.
  • helps retain door window alignment by reducing friction between the glass frame and the rubber weatherstrip.
  • should not be used prior to painting.
