Product Description
National Adhesives allegedly supplied automotive body panel adhesives that, according to publicly filed asbestos litigation records, contained asbestos fiber as a reinforcing and heat-resistance additive.

Cured squeeze-out was allegedly ground and sanded flush before body filler and paint, generating airborne dust from any asbestos-containing batch.
