    When removing remaining adhesive -7-  with the cutting tool -C-  and the flashing knife -D-  on the body, ensure that a surface coating of adhesive remains -8-  . See Fig 1 .

    NOTE:
    • The surface coating of adhesive residue helps new adhesive to stick. Keep cut surfaces clean and free of grease and do not clean with cleaning solution.
  2. Cleaning and priming paint damage or newly built-up paint areas in the window aperture of the body

    Clean new paint areas or damage to the top coat paint in the non-visible area of the glass section in the body with cleaning solution -H1-  and patch with primer -H2-  . See Fig 2 .

    NOTE:
    • A ventilation period of at least 10 minutes must be observed between the cleaning of the glass section and the application of the primer! No cleaning solution residues may remain on the body.
