Windows and Glass: Service and Repair






Window Flange, Preparing for Glazing

Keep adhesive surface free of dirt and grease.

- Making sure not remove it completely, cut back the residual material on the body flange with a cutting blade just before installing the window.

Residual material acts as a base for the adhesive sealing material.

- If the window glass flange was damaged, repaired or replaced, the paint structure must be repaired and if necessary, the corrosion protection must be reapplied.

- First clean the corrected area with cleaning solution (D 009 401 04) and then apply glass/paint primer (D 009 200 02).
