NOTE:
-
Do not scrape down to the painted surface of the body; damaged paint will interfere with proper bonding.
-
If any of the clips are broken, remove them from the body.
-
Mask off surrounding surfaces before applying primer.
5. Clean the body bonding surface with a sponge dampened in alcohol.
NOTE: After cleaning, keep oil, grease and water from getting on the surface.

where adhesive is to be applied.
NOTE: Make sure the bonding surface is kept free of water, oil and grease.
CAUTION: Avoid setting the quarter glass on its edges; the molding can be permanently deformed.
NOTE: Clean the shadowed area.
