Window Flange, Preparing for Glazing

Window Flange, Preparing for Glazing

- Cut back remaining material on body flange using electric cutter (V.A.G 1561 A) and scraper (V.A.G 1561/8 ), do not remove all residue under any circumstances.





• The remaining material serves as a base for the new adhesive sealing material being applied. Keep the adhesive surfaces free of dirt and grease.

CAUTION!
The activator must not come into contact with the paint or the paint will be damaged.

Exception: If bonding is not performed immediately after cutting back, the remaining material must be activated using the activator D 181 801 A1.

• If the window flange is being repair or partially replaced, the corresponding area must be clean and primed again before painting.

• The laser weld seam may not be in the adhesive bead area. If that is the case, seal the open weld seam with window adhesive before bonding the window.

- If the laser weld seam - 3 - on the sheet metal flange - 4 - is not covered by the adhesive bead - 1 -, coat the weld seam - 3 - with glass/paint primer D 009 200 02 - 3 - and fill it with window adhesive DH 009 100 03 - 1 -.
