Avoid touching the trimmed surface as this will inhibit the bonding of the new adhesive.
2. Check the pinch weld sealing area for damaged sheet metal, rust or foreign material which may have caused, or may cause glass breakage.
3. Using a hot air gun, apply warm air (25°C) to the rear quarter window opening flange and glass bond line to remove all traces of moisture.
CAUTION: To make sure that the PU adhesive cures, it is essential that all bonding surfaces are free of moisture.
4. Prepare the glass, rear quarter window opening flange and trimmed PU adhesive in accordance with the instructions supplied with the adhesive kit.
5. Apply the PU adhesive in a continuous bead of between 11 and 15 mm height to the rear quarter window opening flange along the bond line.
NOTE:
^
Discard the first 100 mm of PU adhesive as this may have a reduced working time.
^
To avoid water leaks, any breakage in the continuous bead should be overlapped by 20 mm.
6. Install the rear quarter window glass.
NOTE: Firmly and evenly press in position; tape the glass in the correct position until the PU adhesive has cured.
7. Should the ambient temperature fall below 10°C, use a hot air gun at a distance of approximately 50 mm from the surface and apply warm air (25°
C) continuously for 15 minutes (inside or outside the vehicle).
