ADHESIVE CAULKING-GENERAL INFORMATION
All Styles
DESCRIPTION
This concept of glass installation incorporates a
synthetic
self-curing
rubber
adhesive caulking
compound that adheres to both glass and window
opening pinchweld flange in place of the rubber
channel that was formerly used. Applied to the
glass while in a soft state the material begins to
cure soon after exposure to air. Due to this fast
curing characteristic, installation of the glass into
the body opening must quickly follow application of
material to glass. This method of glass installation
is used on stationary glass, such as windshield
glass, back glass, station wagon quarter glass and
skylights.
