INSTALLATION
1. With a putt knife, scrape the old adhesive smooth to a thickness of about 2mm (0.08 in.) on the bonding surface around the entire quarter fixed
glass flange.
A. Do not scrape down to the painted surface of the body; damaged paint will interfere with proper bonding.
B. Mask off surrounding surfaces before painting.
C. Remove the fasteners from the body.
2. Clean the body bonding surface with a sponge dampened in alcohol. After cleaning, keep oil, grease and water from getting on the surface.
3. With a sponge, apply a light coat of glass primer along the edge of the quarter fixed glass as shown, then lightly wipe it off with gauze or
cheesecloth:
A. Do not apply body primer to the quarter fixed glass, and do not get body and glass primer sponges mixed up.
B. Never touch the primed surfaces with your hands. If you do, the adhesive may not bond to the quarter fixed glass properly, causing a leak after
the quarter fixed glass in installed.
C. Keep water, dust, and abrasive materials away from the primed surface.
