Vehicle Damage Warnings
CAUTION:Care must be taken to avoid scratching the pinch weld.
Use care to avoid damage to the glass.
A new sliding door window glass must be installed to prevent wind noise or water leaks.
Wipe off the urethane glass prep immediately after each application because it flash dries.
Apply using deliberate strokes, making sure not to overlap the applied area.
If vehicle is to be driven within 24 hours of urethane adhesive application, Urethane Adhesive Essex U-216 meeting Ford specification WSB-M2G316-B must be used due to its one hour cure time.
Open the windows to prevent the sliding door glass and liftgate window glass from being pushed out by air pressure if a door is closed.
Use care to avoid damage to the rear package trim cover panel.
After installing the new urethane installed glass, the vehicle should not be driven until the urethane adhesive has cured. The curing time at temperatures above 13°C (55°F) and relative humidity above 50% is 12-24 hours. (Refer to the Essex drive away chart for the cure times as the temperatures and humidity vary.) Inadequate curing of the urethane adhesive may adversely affect the strength of the urethane adhesive bond.
