8. Apply one inch masking tape to inner surface
of glass 1/4" inboard from outer edge up both
sides and across top. Do not apply tape to
bottom edge of glass. Instead, apply masking
tape over painted feature strip below back
window opening. (See Fig. 4-26.)
9. Using a clean, lint-free cloth liberally damp-
en with Adhesive Caulking Primer, briskly
rub primer over original adhesive caulking
compound remaining on pinchweld flange.
NOTE:
If the pinchweld flange has been re-
painted, prime flange with Paint Surface Prim-
er, or equivalent.
10. Wipe surface of glass to which bead of adhesive
caulking material will be applied (between
masking tape and edge of glass) with a clean,
water-dampened rag.
Dry glass thoroughly
with a clean, dry rag.
11. With caulking gun and nozzle positioned as
illustrated in Figure 4-26 carefully apply a
smooth continuous bead of caulking material
3/8" high by 3/16" wide at base completely
around inside edge of glass.
NOTE:
When material in first tube is dis-
pensed, quickly insert second tube and continue
application of bead. This material begins to
cure after fifteen minutes exposure to air,
therefore, perform the following steps im-
mediately and install glass in the opening as
quickly as possible.

Remove
"glass- bead" nozzle
and
insert
"smear-bead" nozzle. Holding caulking gun
at an angle so that angle-cut of nozzle rests
flat on pinchweld flange, apply a thin (1/4"
wide x 1/16" high) "smear-bead" of adhesive
caulking material completely around pinchweld
flange.
Install glass in body opening making certain
that glass sets properly on spacers and does
not have to be shifted after material contacts
pinchweld flange.
Align tape on glass with
tape on body to guide window into opening.
(See Fig. 4-25).
NOTE:
When setting glass into opening, it
should be in the same plane as opening so that
all edges of glass contact pinchweld flange at
approximately the same time.
Press glass firmly to set caulking material.
Use caution to avoid excessive squeeze-out of
material.
