Abstract: The present disclosure keeps a topcoat film 3 from having a dent 6 in a portion of its surface corresponding to a pinhole 4 of a resin molded product 1. A method of the present disclosure includes: applying an undercoat material to a resin molded product 1 to form an undercoat film 2; applying a topcoat material to a surface of the undercoat film 2 to form a topcoat film 3; and thermally curing the topcoat film 3. A coating material that contains a base resin having a larger volume expansion coefficient than the resin molded product 1 and a granular filler having a smaller volume expansion coefficient than the base resin and a number-average particle size of 2 ?m or more to 12 ?m or less is used as the undercoat material.

Abstract: In thermal pressure joining of joining a metal member to a resin member, a metal member (11) and a resin member (12) are stacked one on the other, a press member (160) applies heat and pressure locally on the metal member to soften and melt the resin member, the resin member is then solidified, the press member (160) is pressed into the metal member (11) to a depth shallower than a joint boundary (13) between the metal and resin members to deform a portion (110) of the metal member directly under the press member such that the portion protrudes toward the resin member, and resin (121) melted on a surface of the resin member in a region (60) of the joint boundary directly under the press member flows to an outer periphery (61) of the region (60).

Abstract: The invention provides a structure of a front part of a vehicle body that is simple and free from the risk of maloperation. In the event of a collision between the vehicle and a pedestrian, a projecting part sweeps the pedestrian by parts of his or her legs lower than the knees in the event of a collision between the vehicle and the pedestrian, causing the pedestrian to be thrown over toward the vehicle, and after an energy-absorbing member has absorbed impact energy exerted on the legs, the pedestrian is caused to drop onto the top of a hood and protected from secondary damage.
