Outside Window Moulding

REMOVAL







1. Remove the windshield outside moulding from the windshield glass perimeter.
- Pry up the end of the windshield outside moulding; twist and pull out of the urethane sealant.

INSTALLATION







1. Trim the urethane sealant.
- Apply tape to protect the surrounding painted surface.
- Use a razor blade knife to vertically trim the urethane sealant.







2. Use a two handle moulding removal tool to cut the urethane sealant along the pinch weld.







3. Insert the blade to specification; cut the urethane sealant along the windshield glass using a two handle moulding removal tool.







4. Cutting at an angle, use a two handle moulding removal tool to remove as much of the urethane sealant as possible.







5. Carefully clean the pinch weld and the inside edge of the windshield glass using an alcohol-free cleaner. Apply primer.
- Apply (A) Urethane Glass Primer (part of E0AZ-19562-A) or equivalent meeting Ford specification WSB-M2G314-B to the windshield glass.
- Apply (B) Urethane Metal Primer (part of E0AZ-19562-A) or equivalent meeting Ford specification WSB-M2G234-C to the pinch weld and windshield outside moulding. Allow 10 minutes drying time.







6. Lay a bead of Urethane Sealant (part of E0AZ-19562-A) or equivalent meeting Ford specification WSB-M2G316-B in the pinch weld to specification.

CAUTION
- Use only Urethane Sealant (part of E0AZ-19562-A), or equivalent meeting Ford specification WSB-M2G316-B to service water and air leaks of the urethane sealant.
- After replacing the urethane installed glass, the vehicle should not be driven until the urethane has cured. The curing times at temperatures above 13°C (55°F) and relative humidity above 50% curing time is 12-24 hours (decreasing at higher temperatures and lower humidities). Refer to the detailed instructions provided by the manufacturer in the kit. Inadequate curing of the urethane may adversely affect the strength of the urethane sealant bond.







7. Reshape the (A) bead of urethane sealant.







8. Install the windshield outside moulding.
1. Align the marks on the windshield outside moulding.
2. Install the top part of the windshield outside moulding.
3. Install the corners of the windshield outside moulding.
4. Install the sides of the windshield outside moulding from the top down.
