  • select and apply adhesives to three different automotive or marine components, in which the work must involve one door trim.

Knowledge Evidence

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

  • work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to selecting and applying adhesives in automotive and marine service and repair work, including procedures for:
  • selecting and using PPE
  • using safety data sheets (SDS) for adhesives
  • using specialist tools and equipment
  • storing adhesives
  • environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of adhesives and waste materials
  • adhesive manufacturer specifications
  • adhesive types required for different automotive and marine materials
  • adhesive application techniques and procedures, including:
  • surface preparation
  • application
  • cleaning and disposal
  • procedures for protecting vehicle, vessel and components when applying adhesives
  • procedures for final inspection of applied adhesive.

Assessment Conditions

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the adhesives they have selected and used on vehicles, vessels and components, e.g. work orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

  • automotive or marine trimming workplace or simulated workplace
  • workplace instructions
  • instructions relating to the selection and use of adhesives
  • SDS for adhesives
  • adhesives
  • PPE required to use adhesives
  • three different automotive or marine components as specified in the performance evidence requiring the use of adhesives
  • tools, equipment and materials appropriate for applying adhesives.
