2. Carefully trim the remaining PU adhesive from the rear quarter window glass flange to leave approximately 1 mm of trimmed PU adhesive
adhered to the flange.
CAUTION: Do not touch the adhesive surface as re-bonding will be impaired.
3. Check the rear quarter window glass flange for damaged sheet metal, rust or foreign material which may have caused, or may cause, glass
breakage.
4. Using a hot air gun, apply warm air (25°C) to the rear quarter window glass 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.
5. Prepare the glass, rear quarter window glass flange and trimmed PU adhesive in accordance with the instructions supplied with the PU adhesive
kit.
6. Apply the PU adhesive in a continuous bead of between 8 and 10 mm in height to the rear quarter window glass flange along the bond line.
NOTE:
^
Discard the first 100 mm of PU adhesive as this may have reduced working time.
^
To avoid water leaks, any breakage in the continuous bead must be overlapped by 20 mm.
7. With the aid of another technician, use glazing suction cups to install the rear quarter window glass.
^
Press firmly and evenly into position.
8. Using suitable tape, secure the rear quarter window glass in the correct position until the PU adhesive has cured.
CAUTION: During the curing period of the PU adhesive, the door windows must be left open to avoid a build up of pressure when the doors are
opened and closed.
