Assessment tool
Version 1.0 Issue Date: May 2024
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to follow body filler procedures in order to repair vehicle aluminium body panels. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, cleaning panel surfaces, identifying suitable body filler type, calculating body filler amount, mixing and applying body filler to aluminium panels, completing repairs to pre-paint condition, and completing workplace processes and documentation.
It applies to those working in the automotive body repair industry.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

repair three different aluminium body panels on a vehicle to pre-paint condition using body filler, including repair to an aluminium body panel dent of a minimum of 200 mm x 200 mm to a maximum filler depth of 3 mm.
Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:
work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to repairing vehicle aluminium body panels using filler, including procedures for:
selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE)
using safety data sheets (SDS) for body filler
manually handling vehicle panels
using tools and equipment, including dust and fume collection equipment

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 aluminium body panel that they have repaired, e.g. repair 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:
