Preparing New Window For Glazing
New windows are supplied pre-coated with PUR. The pre-coating consists of items 1, 2 and 3:
1 - Sealing lip
2 - Spacing lip
3 - Area for application of adhesive bead
4 - Window glass
Side window
NOTE: Changes to the side window pre-coating material require that the pre-coating be treated as follows:
- Soak a cloth with silicone remover, Part No. LSE 020 100 A3-.
- Clean area for adhesive bead -3- thoroughly using soaked cloth twice.
- Coat window with activator AMV 181 800 02 after a flash-off period of at least 5 minutes, as with previous pre-coated windows.
Side window gaps
A gap of 5 - 6 mm (0.20-0.24 in.) between top edge of window and window flange on side panel must be adhered to when installing a side window.
NOTE: The distance is required to install the mountings for the roof load system.
The rest of the adhesive sequence remains unchanged.
All other windows
- Rub down pre-coating with a dry cloth which is not fluffy.
WARNING!
Do not prime precoating and do not treat with cleaning agent.
- Apply a thin coat of activator AMV 181 800 02 only onto pre-coating -2- of window using applicator -1-, Part No. D 009 500 25 (felt ball with wire handle).
- Allow activator to air dry for at least 10 minutes.
NOTE:
- Activator must not have contact with paint, otherwise the paint finish will be damaged.
