8. With a knife, scrape the old adhesive smooth to a thickness of about 2 mm (0.08 in.) on the bonding surface around the entire windshield opening

flange:
-

Do not scrape down to the painted surface of the body; damaged paint will interfere with proper bonding.

-

Remove the rubber dam and fasteners from the body.

-

Mask off surrounding surfaces before painting.

9. Clean the body bonding surface with a sponge dampened in alcohol. After cleaning, keep oil, grease and water from getting on the clean surface.

10. If the old windshield is to be reinstalled, use a putty knife to scrape off all of the old adhesive, the fasteners, the rubber dam and the dashboard seal

from the windshield. Clean the shaded portion of the windshield with alcohol where new adhesive is to be applied. Make sure the bonding surface
is kept free of water, oil, and grease.

11. Glue the rubber dam (A), clips (B) with adhesive tape (3M 4216, or equivalent) and dashboard seal (C) to the inside face of the windshield (D) as

shown:
-

Be sure the rubber dam, clips and dashboard seal line up with the alignment marks (E).

-

Be careful not to touch the windshield where adhesive will be applied.
