  34. What does AMAS look like? Detailedexplanation of use of sealants in common areas of leaks – includes information on the sealant, application, seal time, dry time and example of use.

  35. The Training Information Section is complete with detailed explanation of how to use various sealants – this is one example Black Liquid Metal – sealant Container: 1 quart silver metal cans Appearance and characteristics:thick black liquid. Application: 1. Poured straight out of the can - over a seam into a hard to seal area like a seam behind a fender from the plenum.  2. Sprayed out of a schutz gun - over a hard to get seam or area under a dash board.  3. Sprayed over a dum dum seal for insurance.  4. Poured out of a squeeze bottle - over a seam where neatness counts. Use black liquid metal on a clean dry area.  5. Applied with an acid brush. Always use liquid metal on a clean dry area. Seal time: one to four hours Dry time: 24 hours Example of use: 1.  Remove the plenum cover.  Pour 1 quart of black liquid metal into the plenum drain to seal the cowl seam behind the fender.  2. Remove the left front floor carpet trim.  Remove the detner from the inner top cowl/dash seam area.   Seal the factory sealer skip with dum dum.  Water test the left front floor area.  Spray over the dum dum with black liquid metal.  3.  Remove the right side plenum cover.  Clean the area around the top fender bolt with mineral spirits.  Squeeze out 1/2 pint of black liquid metal over the top fender bolt.   Install plenum cover.  Don't test for 24 hours.

  46. What are people saying about AMAS? Robby Robbs – Current Chairman of I-CAR …simple to use, responsive, from a technical perspective....outstanding job in illustrating corrective procedures. I really see an application for this with OE dealers, body shop, glass installers. Great job. Don Droske – Retired Engineer – GM …….the most difficult problems to resolve is the identification of the real root cause and the permanent repair…….. This data base, provides the tools to efficiently and correctly diagnose and repair the problem the first time. Tom Lynch - Ford - Retired Engineer …..looking for an additional profit opportunity at a very low cost, I strongly recommend you review this software to add on profit. Wickstrom Dealer – Brian Cook, Service Director …in the past we avoided these problems, however we now actively search for these service opportunities…….we have added incremental revenue and profit….. Auto Glass – Al Fuller, Owner, Anvil Glass ….this is simple, the training is all included, it works, the ROI is extremely fast, and I like it. Tire Retailer – Randy Wong – Owner, Goodyear Automotive….just been introduced to this add on service and profit opportunity – I am very excited about the opportunity to service this untapped market, solve my customers problems and add profits.

  47. AMAS promotes safety! • Air Bag Safety - Always disconnect the car battery if the car airbag may be deployed. • Safety Equipment - Always use safety precautions. Wear gloves when needed! • Hazardous Material - Always dispose of hazardous materials (i.e. chemicals) in a safe manner. NEVER put the environment at risk! • Knowledge of Leaks - AMAS will show you the repair for a leak--this does not mean it is the ONLY repair or cause of a leak. Be sure to retest vehicles (as indicated) upon completion to insure you have performed the repair properly. • Not all repairs are covered by a manufacturer warranty. • Examples of non-warranty repairs: • windshield repairs after the glass has been replaced by a non-dealership establishment • car break-ins (damaging weather-strip and windows) • vibration from large speakers • installing car stereos and/or alarms
