Window Flange, Preparing for Glazing

Window Flange, Preparing for Glazing

- Cut back remaining material on body flange using U-shape knife (V.A.G 1561/3) , do not remove all residue under any circumstances.






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

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

Exception: if adhesion is not performed immediately after the adhesive sealing material is cut, the remaining material must be activated using 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.

• It is possible that the laser weld seam does not lie in the area of the adhesive bead. In this case, the open weld seam must be sealed 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 -.
