In this section, you delete a face on the plastic part model. It resolves the design issue that prevented the automatic patching surfaces from being created for the grill. When the grill was created, multiple faces were produced. The edges of the grill holes do not belong to the same face and therefore are not picked up with the automatic patching. Once the face is deleted and healed, resolve a failure to a rule-based fillet. Removing the face caused the failure.
