4. If installing the original glass panel, remove the excess urethane adhesive.
5. Clean the inside of the glass surface with glass cleaner.

8. NOTE: The glass panel must be positioned within 10 minutes of applying the urethane adhesive.

effort and a continuous bead.
Apply urethane adhesive on top of the existing trimmed urethane adhesive bead, making sure there are no gaps in the bead.
